Did he force them to raise the thermostat while he was there?

(I think I remember hearing a report that the morning the police came for him at his home- it was early in the morning- Blago dropped to the floor and went into a fetal postion.)

He jogged rapidly in place and then dropped to the fetal position on the floor and then got up and did it all again.

We were just tired of being in the White House

I don't even mind this, the White House is a tiring environment. I'm just waiting for the media to jump on him for his "vacations" like they did for Bush whenever he stepped out of the White House. I'll be a douchebag and quote myself from a post from a month ago...

I don't envy anyone who takes the job of POTUS. Campaigns are fun. You get to talk to a lot of people. You get to give rousing oratory to adoring crowds. It's a race and a game and people like races and games. Especially when you win and they like you, they really really like you. Governing is difficult and boring. You sit in meetings all day and have to make difficult decisions you have to sell to the media and the public at large. You have negotiate with other self-interested people to get things done. You have to manage conflicts within your own staff and Administration. I certainly hope Obama is up for it.

Apparently he's found that out the hard way.

So it’s true! I heard that and thought, “What a weirdo!”

He’s got the same mental problem as that single woman who had the 8 babies at once, and has numerous other children, all so that she can get notoriety.

I swear that people doing stuff like that would have been put in mental institutions in the old days. Not to be uncaring, but there are people that need mental help or to be institutionalized, who are allowed to endanger themselves and/or others out in the big world.

Ooh... George Washington would NEVER make it in today’s American political system.

Oh please. He'd do quite well. Any MAN with a strong sense of right and wrong could easily lead the country with a direction toward freedom and liberty. Do you really think Washington would give two sh!ts about what anyone thought about his decisions? It's called conviction and Washington had it in spades. Heck, Joe the Plumber could do a better job than Obamao and I'm certain any number of FReepers could do a better job. The commie chump in charge right now is a joke of epic proportions. Too bad the joke's on us.

"Why is it obligatory for the President to read to kids? It seems a little undignified."

It's only undignified if it shows the kids that even the President doesn't know how to read-- it appears that he isn't able to read his cabinet nominees' resumes well enough to see the many red flags, and we know that he usually doesn't write his own speeches, so maybe he can't read or write.

What a grand example this Commander In Chief sets for the Military he’s charged. He has a bit of a stress, and bolts for the door.

He only votes "present"

Wow, this clown is tired of being in the white house, some 2 weeks IN the WH?

He won’t make it 4 months, forget about 4 years!

And this is with the drive-bys carrying his water, giving him a complete free pass in one of the shakiest starts of any presidency in recent memory or perhaps even all of history!

Wait until these Rachel Maddow/Keith Olbermann loons get bored with their idiotic stories about the wasted money in Iraq while trying to cover-up the fact we won the Iraq war despite their very best shots to undermine Bush and lose it.

They’ll literally eat zero before he even hits the ground or loses consciousness and he won’t know what hit him...he’ll be half digested before he actually recognizes and understands something is chewing on him.

It’s going to be so bad many people on the right are going to have more sympathy for him than his own peeps.

I’m already missing LBJ, much less President Reagan!!

You'll be missing Jimmy Carter before his term is up.

Never thought I'd see the day when Jimmah is no longer America's Worst President.

Of course, he's still got a foothold on America's Worst Ex-President.

Well I've waited a long time to say this:

As I've been praying through this very tedious election and saw to my dismay how this empty suit 'won' the election, it has settled into my spirit that 0Bama will leave the White House in DISGRACE within 2 years!!

As I read this article and how he cannot take any real pressure and his sudden escape for a quick breather from the 'heat' of being in the White House, its very plain to us (and to America's enemies) that 0Bama will fold very easily.

Pray hard for divine intervention for when 0Bama quits so that the country is not left leaderless and that God will have the perfect person ready for the job.

This guy is a campaigner. He doesn’t have a CLUE how to lead or govern. Or work, for that matter.

Why would we expect him to? This is the first real job he's ever had in his life.

But the Drive-by Media stuck with this man through thick and thin during his campaign, so do you think they will abandon him- no matter what type of a$$ he makes of himself- after he’s been gloriously and miraculously placed in the presidency?

No. The only way they would abandon him is if Obama abandons the Left and the far Left agenda. As long as he’s on that track to socialism and societal degradation, he can’t be a too silly or stupid puppet for them to utilize.

Yep. He's spent over half of his so-called "adult" life campaigning for the next higher office. Zero leadership skills except to mount a campaign.
