Obama installs Clinton alone at the podium, leaves him to it; Obama gone, Clinton still there
Vanity | December 10, 2010

Posted on 12/10/2010 2:01:24 PM PST by La Lydia

The darnedest thing just happened on TV. Still happening. Obama takes Clinton to the White House press briefing room. Turns the podium over to Clinton, and leaves the room. If you didn't have the sound on your TV, it looked like Obama resigned and handed over to Clinton. Clinton still talking, setting up dueling filibuster with Bernie Sanders. Clinton at that podium is bad deja vu.

Pres. Clinton should have pulled an Alexander Haig caper here right after Obama left the podium by saying” I am in charge while Obama is away”, and as President I say pass the Tax Extension deal?

Obama just destroyed himself, willingly. Clinton is savoring the moment and sucking every last bit of oxygen right out of the Obama Administration. He won’t even give up the podium!

Wow! That’s incredible.

And, boy, does Bill look old? He look far older than he is.

At DU they are saying that Obama is too inexperienced and never should have been president.

Log these dem reactions on our servers because in a month they will deny it all.

They will be attacking Us for pointing this weakness and weirdness out.

One of them said that Obama is far too inexperienced to have ever been president.

This is frightening...

Maybe GWB had mom and dad to the podium but that is very rare occurrence i.e.the family w/ 2 Presidents.

We have had many former POTUS visting the new guy @ 1600 Penn quietly and not so quietly.

But this?

How will are Adversaries look at this? Our Allies? It diminished the office so much. I am stunned. He literally handed over the reins to an unconstitutional officer to speak for him in sutu as the POTUS.

No one is minding the store...

I watched the whole thing live.

Good God, I’ve never seen such a show of weakness in a sitting President.

Obama didn’t even want to be there. It looked like he wished he could just let Clinton be president for the rest of his term.

Seriously strange.

Quote of the year: “I don’t want to make her mad, please go,” Clinton told Obama.

"I don’t want to make her mad," Mr. Clinton said. "Please go."

From the video, Clintoon could have just said "I don’t want to make her mad, thank you Mr. President." Instead, he throws out the "Please go" zinger.

He also fails to call Zero "Mr. President" as he hastily runs off the stage.

Clinton looks like FDR when he was near death.

Clinton code for calling you an a$$hole is when he tells you he "loves your tie". It's his way of telling everyone who works for and around him, just what he really thinks of someone.

I bet he just loves Obama's tie today.
