During Monday night’s debate, nearly 60 million of us got a good look at why Barack Obama has not been able to accomplish anything in four years.
It’s his patronizing, me-me personality.
Did you see how condescending he was toward Mitt Romney, not to mention downright rude at times?
Obama’s more-presidential-than-thou attitude, which he did little to hide or dial back at the debate, should have reminded us of what happened in the first two weeks of his administration.
Remember when he met with congressional leaders and said he wanted to come up with a bipartisan solution for the country’s economic mess?
It began with a spirit of compromise and mutual respect. But at one point, when Obama became displeased at the Republicans’ ideas for a recovery plan, he turned to House Minority Whip Eric Cantor and arrogantly said, “Elections have consequences and Eric, I won.”
The president spoke condescendingly to Cantor, and guess what? Nothing got accomplished in Washington. For nearly four years.
But Obama’s arrogant, condescending attitude to those mere mortals who are not rock-star politicians (or “eye-candy” for the women who watch “The View”) didn’t start with his presidency. It’s how he acted when he was a community organizer, and it’s how he’s acted at every stage of his political life since then.
He doesn’t look at people and speak with people. He speaks down to people. And when you do that, you rarely succeed in getting anything done in politics or anywhere else.
Even Obama’s friends in Congress won’t cooperate with him. They’re tired of being talked down to, too. Democrats have not given him one positive vote for any budget he has put forward.
Compare Barack Obama to Mitt Romney’s way of working with people. Mitt’s been successful at everything he’s tried. It’s because he speaks with people. He embraces people. He works with people. He doesn’t patronize or speak down to them.
Ronald Reagan, in order to get all the things done in Washington that he did, also knew how to treat people. He embraced people — both his friends and his enemies. He never talked down to anyone in his life.
My father also knew something about sharing credit that our Me-Me President clearly doesn’t understand.
My father had a plaque on his desk that read, “There is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn’t mind who gets the credit.”
Ronald Reagan knew that when you’re in Washington, everyone wants to take credit for anything and everything that gets done. Not being willing to share the credit is another reason you won’t be able to accomplish anything.
But this president has a real problem with giving credit. If he had a plaque on his desk, it’d read, “The credit begins and stops here — with me.”
Did you hear how many times the president said “I” or “me” during the last debate? Did anyone hear a single “we”?
I don’t know if anyone counted on Monday; but during a 25-minute stump speech in Ohio in July, Obama said the “I” word 98 times and the “me” word 19 times. (A few weeks later, first lady Michelle’s total was 83 times in 25 minutes, so maybe it runs in the family.)
As long as the president is going to use the words “I” and “me,” “we” are never going to accomplish anything in Washington if he’s in charge.
All I can say, America, is that “I” can’t vote Obama out of office on Nov. 6. But “we” sure can.

Jets spelled '**** Off'.
Obama lives in a megalomaniacal fantasy. His advisors are amateurs who don't know how to do anything except fawn all over him. He's surrounded by "YES" people who wouldn't dare tell him the truth because he'd fire them from their lucrative positions. They are all totally incompetent for the jobs that they are supposedly doing.
"Nothing got accomplished in Washington. For nearly four years." You are wrong.
He's committed jehad everyone of us, jehad against our Constitution, jehad against our Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence, economy etc. He just hasn't finished yet.!!!!!!
Typical Narcissist-In-Chief never owning up to a wrong decision he's made, always blames someone else when something goes wrong. Probably has something to do with his upbringing, father left him and then his mother pushed him off to his grandparents. Too bad someone in his life didn't represent the love of America and patriotism, that's why he wants to destoy it.
how does ovomit get to use air force one to campaign with
There are so many negative adjectives that could be used to describe obama. People who can't see past the facade are even scarier than the occupiers of the office. A lot of people roaming about freely in society nowadays would in former times have been committed to prisons and loony bins.
If Obama acts like this in a national debate on live T.V. with millions of viewers and it does not stop him, can you just imagine how he treats our allies such as Netanyahu behind closed doors?
I hate to repeat this, but this ME ME ME attitude of this worthless peice of human(???) filth in office displayed this same attitude before, BEFORE he was “elected” in 2008! No one paid attention though, not then, because he pranced about the stages in our nation, as if he were indeed a ROCK STAR, come to save us and entertain us all together in one bag of skinny, purple lipped, flap earred peice of flesh! And then, after the “election”, his ME ME ME attitude showed so clearly that is was sickening! This so called “healthcare” fiasco, all he wanted was MY WAY, MY WAY, MY WAY OR I WILL THROW A HISSY FIT SO LOUD THAT THE NATION WILL TREMBLE! And all the butt kissers in that cesspool bent over and kissed so loudly that the whole country heard them, and BOOM, THIS “bill” for our “health” was passed, and all the little butt kissing, butt licking buttholes jumped for joy! Their WONDERFUL RACE BAITING HERO WON THE DAY! And all the people in our country were then DOOMED TO HAVING THEIR INSURANCE PREMIUMS GO UP UP AND AWAY! Joy to the world…………until the shit hit the fan, and now how do any of us pay for it, no jobs, no businesses starting so that we can MAKE THE MONEY TO PAY FOR WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE……….ARE YOU READING THIS AMERICA?????……………SUPPOSED TO BE CHEAPER, OR FOR THOSE WHO WANT EVERYTHING FREE………….YOU AIN”T GETTING FREE INSURANCE………….UNLESS………….YOU ARE AN ILLEGAL WHO GETS IT ALL FREE! LEAVING YOU IDIOT AMERICANS WHO VOTED THIS GARBAGE INTO OFFICE OUT IN THE COLD! WELL, ALL I CAN SAY TO YOU IS THAT YOU MORE THAN RICHLY DESERVE EVERY DIME YOU LOSE FROM HERE ON IN! I hope, I HOPE YOU LOSE YOUR UNDERWEAR IN THE BARGIN! OLD AND YOUNG ALIKE, IF YOU SUPPORTED THIS GARBAGE, THEN I HOPE HE TAKES YOUR COTTON PICKING UNDERWEAR AS WELL AS EVERYTHING ELSE IF YOU DO THIS TO THE REST OF US AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
