Obama: When You See Me Writing Stuff In A Big Important Meeting, I'm Just Doodling (video)

"I'm also a pretty good doodler, folks don't know that about me," President Obama said in an interview with WJLA-TV last Friday when asked what people don't know about him.

"I do all kinds of things. Faces, people," Obama shared.

Obama also revealed that he sometimes draws doodles when he is in a "big important international meeting."

"Sometimes when I’m in a big important international meeting and you see me writing stuff down it might be that I’m just drawing some folks," Obama said.

Good. The more time he spends doodling, the less time he spends plotting his next diabolical move.

Or so I hope.

“Sometimes when I’m in a big important international meeting and you see me writing stuff down it might be that I’m just drawing some folks,” Obama said.”

This so blew my mind that I thought it had to be satire.

The language he used.The very idea that he would even admit this. I am sure it has happened in the past with Presidents but you don’t admit it to the World.

How appropriate...the bulk of his writings and notes that will be archived in his Presidential Library in Chicago will be doodles.

For what it’s worth, Adolph Hitler was a great doodler, too.

Anyway, I am certain that “O” is nearly a functional illiterate.

Everything that comes out of his mouth is what he regurgitates rote... he has been programmed. It’s probably why he can’t function without his teleprompter and fails so miserably whenever he has to wing it!

I am also certain that he is NOT well read. Like most die hard radicals I know, if he reads at all, he only reads material strictly consistent with the most extreme Liberal views and material meant to develop and perpetuate the Communist mentality. None of that stuff is intellectually sound much less well written.

How do I know that? Well, since I am a Conservative... by definition I AM well read!! (Like most Conservatives you will ever meet)

I have not only read Conservative political philosophy BUT like all the other Conservatives I know, I have ALSO read Socialist and Communist tomes as well!!

Liberals and other radicals need to expand their understanding of political philosophy and other disciplines, because it is apparent from their repetitious dialogue and speech that they are unbelievably limited in their understanding and possess only the most cursory grasp of issues.

The DNC has become a political relic and they all sound alike. That is not as intellectualy imaginative or politically resourceful as current American politics demands.

I’m inclined to believe this because I don’t think he has a ghost of an idea what is going on.

The more time he spends doodling, the less time he spends plotting his next diabolical move.

While he's "doodling", his commie puppet masters are plotting the diabolical moves.

Lol! I wouldn't be surprised. Recall there was a book with a collection of various quotes of his.

From Amazon.com...

Obama’s Little Blue Book and the Egg of Power
By Michelle Malkin, January 26, 2009

Tons of people have e-mailed about the Little Blue Book of Obama sayings that a firm called the History Company is hawking on its website. Yes, they really are selling them in 10-packs for $49.50 — and yes, the resemblance to Mao’s Little Red Book is striking. Weirdly, “Pocket Obama” has a plain blank cover and smacks of a gag — especially the last line [it was not a gag -etl]:

"Printed in a size that easily fits into pocket or purse, this book is an anthology of quotations borrowed from Barack Obama’s speeches and writings. POCKET OBAMA serves as a reminder of the amazing power of oratory and the remarkable ability of this man to move people with his words. His superb and captivating oratory style has earned comparisons to John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, and this historic collection presents words that catapulted his remarkable rise to the American Presidency. It is an unofficial requirement for every citizen to own, to read, and to carry this book at all times-The History Company [the book is no longer listed on the History Company's web site -etl].

"From May 1966, student members of the Communist Party were encouraged to carry copies of Mao's Little Red Book of quotations. Acting under Mao's leadership, these "Red Guards" used his quotations in their mission to weed out intellectuals. With themes such as Correcting Mistaken Ideas and All Reactionaries are Paper Tigers, the quotations became the standard by which all revolutionary efforts were judged."

A$$-clown in a suit. By his own admission nothing but contempt for those around him.

Doodler - in - Chief....this would make a GREAT commercial for the RNC to use.
Obama needs to focus not doodle in those “important” meeting. As Hillary said “Shame On you Barak Obama”!

Coverage of Obama’s doodles from 2008 ... in the media’s usual fashion of the time - comparing his to Palin’s doodles. You can guess which one they like and which one they hated.

No surprise here. He is in over his head all the time. And from what I read, over his head on the golf course, too.
