A real husband says he loves his wife and would never do anything to hurt her or mess up his marriage. Not “gee, I don’t want to get caught.”

Yep. Incredibly telling. On top of that, Couric's question wasn't even about him or his marriage. She asked him about other people's infidelity.

"I have no idea, because my attitude is...I'm in public..."

His response was completely at odds with a person's normal reaction to behavior they'd never consider. He equates marital infidelity with picking his nose. It's not wrong, just unsanitary and unseemly, nothing more. Swap out any other transgression for infidelity, and the significance of his response becomes even more apparent:

Couric: "Why do you think people risk so much by trafficking in drugs or child porn?"

Obama: "I have no idea, because my attitude is the more I'm in public, I mean, I don't even want to pick my nose, you know. It's, I mean, I'm assuming everybody's watching."

He’s a narcissist, alright, and he’s satisfied to be the frontman, teleprompter reader because he loves and craves the admiration. How tragic for America.

Since that article was written, we now know (thanks especially to Glenn Beck) the powers that are using this know-nothing to “fundamentally transform” and “remake” the United States of America.

” I’ll leave that to the psychologists. “

That’s a start, Obie. Now leave the rest of medical care to doctors, too.

See this article in the Enqirer, I know they are a bit lose with the truth and with facts, but as the Democrats say it’s the seriousness of the charge that warrants investigation.
There is usually a a little truth in th Enquirers articles, see for yourself at:

Wouldn’t it just be the most ironic event of the century. At least Tiger wasn’t the President. It’s the seriousness of the charge, as the Democrats like to say. I pass these rumors along just as fast as I get them LOL. See the attached link:

That;s the business they engage in, rumors and gossip. Isn’t it the strangest thing that sometimes they get it right, maybe
just maybe, this is one of this times. See the article and judge for yourself:

That’s a great analysis.

He’s just plain creepy. On so many levels.
