Half of my letters brand me an idiot - President Obama

* From correspondents in Washington * From: AFP * March 11, 2010 10:24AM

US President Barack Obama has joked that half of the 40,000 letters that pour into the White House each day brand him an "idiot''.

Tongue-in-cheek, the President remarked that his staff did not spare him the wrath of his correspondents - selecting a representative portion of 10 letters for him to read when he returns to the White House residence at night.

"I will tell you, that my staff is very even-handed, because about half of these letters call me an idiot!'' Mr Obama said overnight, chuckling at his own joke during a rally in Saint Louis, Missouri.

“I will tell you, that my staff is very even-handed, because about half of these letters call me an idiot!’’

Note the three self-centered references. I, my, me. He’s a narcissistic idiot.

So he’s only basing that on five of ten letters out of 40,000? I guess ‘idiot’ is the least derogatory term his staff could find.

Since he admits half, it must be more like 6:4 or 7:3.

said those selected for him to read help him to puncture the presidential "bubble'' and connect with average Americans.

it ain't working - cause he has such disdain for "average Americans" versus his elite company.

To him, we are the great unwashed, not worthy of a second thought from his HighNASS.

Pretty good considering 100% of his staff considers him an idiot.

In a couple of years the percentage will be about 80% who call him an idiot and he’ll still have the same cavalier attitude about it unless he’s impeached or arrested before then.
