President Obama blames the press for creating the image that he's aloof and disconnected from the rest of Washington, insisting in a new interview that he's just more interested in spending time with his family than in exchanging pleasantries with strangers.
"My suspicion is that this whole critique has to do with the fact that I dont go to a lot of Washington parties and, as a consequence, the Washington press corps maybe just doesnt feel like Im in the mix enough with them, and they figure, well, if Im not spending time with them, I must be cold and aloof," Obama said in an interview with Time Magazine released Thursday.
"The fact is, Ive got a 13-year-old and 10-year-old daughter. And so, no, Michelle and I dont do the social scene, because as busy as we are, we have a limited amount of time, and we want to be good parents at a time thats vitally important for our kids."

“they talk about me like a dog”
Man, this whiny wuss never stops, this whiny Peter Pan is Leader of The Free World!
LOL...you just can’t make this stuff up. And like a battered wife going back to the abusive husband, the press will beg for forgiveness and re-double their efforts to win Obama’s approval.
IIRC, "cold and aloof" can be outward manifestations of the malignant narcissist.
Deserves a thorough look, n'est ce pas?
(Also, the release and analysis of Mister Obama's complete, thorough, and unexpurgated collegiate transcripts might give him less to act cold and aloof about. Just sayin...)
.
Other than the work he does to prepare for the Friday Night Document Dumps and taking direction from S0r0$ what else does he do?
Makes sense. He should be hanging out with 10 and 13 year olds....
Holy Moley!
How did you get this info!
It’s BUSH’S fault!
Obama is weepin and wailin... so sad, too bad.....;)
I’m convinced there is a lot about his ‘vacation’ to Pakistan with his sugar daddy, his multiple ss#s, and his passport/school info.
When will the media investigate these?

Couldn’t hae anything to do with the 17 day vacation he took in Hawaii while many people were wondering how to make their next rent or mortgage payment.
His Tranny Nanny probably made up for the probably days with home school lessons.
... and the Nile is not just a river in Africa. Body language is a real discipline and while he has obviously made efforts since his inauguration, has anyone else noticed his “chin-in-the-air, looking down his nose” speech posture? This is not, I believe, an accident but an aspect of personality. When he was running in 2008, I remarked to all around me that all he needed was the straight arm salute to be an embodiment of Mussolini, “Il Duce”.
He had better watch who he criticizes.
