During the 10AM ET hour of Americas Newsroom on Fox News Channel, fill-in co-host Martha Maccallum told viewers what President Obama watched on election night while Democrats suffered big losses in New Jersey and Virginia: Robert Gibbs said, well, he was actually watching, you know, the HBO special about his year-long campaign and how it all went.
On Tuesday night the White House had worked to downplay the Democratic gubernatorial defeats by claiming the President did not watch the election returns. Apparently Gibbs thought it would look better if the commander in chief was watching a self-indulgent fawning documentary about himself. Interestingly, Obama apparently previewed the HBO special a few days earlier, as Gibbs himself explained to the blog Talking Points Memo: White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs says Obama has already seen By the People...Gibbs told TPMDC Obamas review: Thumbs up!

Last night the story was the Bulls.
That’s a textbook narcissist for ya!
What an ego!
Kind of reminds me of Hitler during the last days of the Reich. Didn’t he watch movies of his past glories while Germany (Berlin) was being bombed?
Probably played with himself the whole time.
Nero fiddles while Rome burns.
Rush is reading this story at this very moment.
We could stand to have this posted a few more times, bet.
Well I certainly hope he recorded it so he can watch it over and over again.
“textbook narcissist”
Bingo, and these personality disorder types care about no one but themselves. God help the USA.
Sound precisely like something a Hussein would do?
LOL!! LOL!! LOL!!
anything that keeps him from doing his actual job
I think he is a narcissistic egomaniac if I ever saw one.
Jeez! Take all of the mirrors out of the White House! He’ll never get anything done otherwise!
That’s right - last night he was watching the Chicago Bulls - they lost - so now the story changed! LOL!
This guy shouts his own name out during sex.
He hasn’t heard about TIVO?
Thank God I canceled HBO
Oh thats a crock of snit. We all know, he watched election results, or at least flicked back and forth from whatever it is he was watching.
People who were never interested in politics before, were watching..you can bank on that...everyone was curious.
You cant tell me he wasnt interested. THATS what they want US to believe. It would have been a totally different story if they were winning/won. You would have heard how he was glued to the election results.
They must really, really think the American public is stupid. Or they think, anything that flies out their lying mouths is true. They are only fooling themselves.
I have done so much eyerolling, with their stupid comments, the past 9 months, that I am afraid my eyeballs are going to get stuck.
This is way too funny.
Mirror mirror on the wall who is the most narcissist of them all?
Well, how is this for a change.

Washington (CNN) President Obama is not planning to watch Tuesday nights election returns, Obama aides Robert Gibbs and David Axelrod tell CNN.
Obama is more likely to watch Tuesday night’s Chicago Bulls game than any political coverage, according to Axelrod.
The president’s senior staff have also decided not to hold a watch party to keep an eye on election returns as they come in.
Well ... why not? Watching election results come in is pretty pointless; only the final score matters, and that can be read in a few seconds once it’s in. Kinda like waiting for the outcome of a football game by watching the real-time score but not the gameplay. Blargh. Seeing a documentary (even pseudo-) about yourself on TV, well, methinks (not just narcissists) anyone would find that more interesting.
The fact that he’s played more golf in 9 months than Bush did in several years, well, THAT is a better indicator of his priorities...
I must say, this Mr. Gibbs is becoming very entertaining. With the statement that Obama spent 22 hours thinking about Afghanistan, and now this, I’m hoping he will continue to just say what’s on his mind, because it’s really revealing.
BTW, was it Gibbs or somebody else from the WH who said that the reason names like Michael Moore and W. Ayers came up so often on the list of White House visitors was because they are common names? So, you shouldn’t assume that those visits were from THAT Michael Moore or THAT W. Ayers. That was pretty funny, too.
Keep it coming, Gibbs.
Apparently, according to Gibbsy, this was the second time he’s watched it.
Apparently, he just can’t get enough of himself.
Bring my another towel honey!!
LOL! Obama is so vain, he probably has a mirror on his teleprompter so he can watch himself speak. What an ego!
barack feels pretty - chicago side story
I feel pretty,
Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty and witty and bright!
And I pity
Any boy who isn’t me tonight.
I feel charming,
Oh, so charming
It’s alarming how charming I feel!
And so pretty
That I hardly can believe I’m real.
See the pretty boy in that mirror there:
Who can that attractive boy be?
Such a pretty face,
Such a pretty dress,
Such a pretty smile,
Such a pretty me!
I feel stunning
And entrancing,
Feel like running and dancing for joy,
For I’m loved
By a pretty wonderful boy!
boys
Have you met my good friend barack,
The craziest boy on the block?
You’ll know her the minute you see her,
She’s the one who is in an advanced state of shock.
She thinks she’s in love.
She thinks she’s in Spain.
She isn’t in love,
She’s merely insane.
It must be the heat
Or some rare disease,
Or too much to eat
Or maybe it’s fleas.
Keep away from her,
Send for Chino!
This is not the
barack we know!
Modest and pure,
Polite and refined,
Well-bred and mature
And out of her mind!
barack
I feel pretty,
Oh, so pretty
That the city should give me its key.
A committee
Should be organized to honor me.
boyS
La la la la . . .
barack
I feel dizzy,
I feel sunny,
I feel fizzy and funny and fine,
And so pretty,
Miss America can just resign!
boyS
La la la la . . .
barack
See the pretty boy in that mirror there:
boyS
What mirror where?
barack
Who can that attractive boy be?
boyS
Which? What? Where? Whom?
barack
Such a pretty face,
Such a pretty dress,
Such a pretty smile,
Such a pretty me!
boyS
Such a pretty me!
ALL
I feel stunning
And entrancing,
Feel like running and dancing for joy,
For I’m loved
By a pretty wonderful boy!
“You care far too much what is written and said about you.” David Axelrod to Obama circa 2006 - my new tagline
Good Lord.
So he acknowledges that what Americans are thinking is of no importance at all for him.
Our Narcisist-in-Chief! It’s all Obama, all the time baby!
“THATS what they want US to believe.”
Right on the money....
“Last night the story was the Bulls.”
Apparently it’s a bunch of bull.

Lyrics:
[Chorus]
I don't look at myself in the mirror because I'm a narcissist
I simply like to
watch myself exist...(HHHH)
Now I'm in a fog and mist...(HHHH)
Now my reflection is
anonymous
Ponder this!
I've seen a reflection of my soul in the store window
Caught
in limbo 'cause I was dressed all in Timbo's
Having fantasies of playing Polo with Ralph Lauren
on a Tommy Hill
And my paper thin spirit was still grieving from the Versace kill in
Florida
Opened the door to the store and I walked down the corridor
to see they had a blow
out sale on Nautica
I've always been a Lord of the button down Flies?
Being they were
half-priced, I pass 'em on by looking for Levis
But Guess what? All my favorite clothing lines
and hip designs
Were being liquidized and it made me sick to my eyes
I don't
understand...when I had no ends...the price was quick to rise
I'd buy a pair of trends even if
they didn't fit my size
Purchase a surplus of fads from merchants whose ads
Made these cheap
ass fabrics that were so worthless and sad
Just look priceless, they used unethical devices to
attack my sense of
self-worth during my prepubescent crisis
It fed into my insecurities, so
instead of being righteous
I want everyone to see me like this
It's all about who looks the
nicest
Ice is falling off my Rolie onto my body shoot!
I hope to hell it doesn't melt and
ruin my Armani suit
While I'm sweatin' this,some kid who doesn't got any loot
Is buying my
necklace along with my same exact khakis and army boots
What?! This is blasphemous!
Since
Adidas tried changing its logo
there ain't been nothing as wack as this
It's probably a
stunt being pulled by Animal Rights activists
Because of
Newsbusters just issued a correction on the story. Apparently it was all a “misinterpretation.”
