Obama keeps his cool
This is not parody.
I heard something on AAR that impressed me.
I don't know the circumstances, but apparently
McCain, Obama and Hillary were
at some conference where they individually answered
questions from the Whore AP.
Rachel Maddow, who hates Hillary less than most,
said the AP brought donuts for McCain
and something else for Obama. Not sure if the
donuts were literally donuts, but I heard this
snippet on AAR Tuesday and I was genuinely impressed
with Obama.
The ass from the Whore AP asked Obama a question
similar to this:
"As president, would you consider a troop
increase in Afghanistan if the war
was going badly and Obama
bin Laden was still at large?"
I could see it on the radio.
Obama took in that question and thought for about
one second and cooly replied,
"I believe his name is OSAMA
bin Laden."
The moron from the Whore AP apologized, and the snippet ended, I didn't hear his answer.
I, of course, would've launched into the crowd,
hoping to get my hands around his smart-ass throat.
But seriously, that could have been handled a
LOT more worsely.
It was a genuine, off-guard moment that I thought
he handled ...like a president.
I bring this up because a few times I've said, "Hey, show
me something."
This time he did.
