George Will, The President pisses himself when he speaks (in so many words) [View all]




Look, self-absorption is part of the occupational hazard of politics and then it's also part of the job description of being president. All that said, try to imagine Dwight Eisenhower talking about D-Day, saying, "I did this, I decided this, I did this and then I did that." It's inconceivable. If you struck from Barack Obama's vocabulary the first person singular pronoun, he would fall silent, which would be a mercy to us and service to him, actually, because he has been so incontinent in his speech making for the last three years that you wind up with, as you said in Ohio State University, empty seats.

***********

George Will is pompous little bag of pig snot.

BTW 14,000 of a total 18,000 seats at the President's speech were taken.
