The Left Wanted Barack Obama, and They Got Him — Warts and All
I heard the current occupant of the Oval Office speak live when he was on the campaign trail. I had a visceral reaction that his words were thin platitudes and he was saying nothing but buzz phrases.There was no meat,ho heat, no resolve. .His speeches since then have borne out my initial impression. At the campaign event, he pulled the “somebody has fainted in the front row get some water” fakery, which did not set off any alarm bells in the media. The press was dazzled…By what? They saw what they wanted to see. I came home and tried to convince friends and family the man was shallow. They didn’t care. They just didn’t care. Now they do.
