    I just watched this interview on FOX and I'm gonna type it out, since it was very interesting and does indeed give validity to the WH Insider view of Obama. It does reinforce what I have seen from Obama for a long time now.

    Interview with Megan Kelly and Karl Rove:


    This has the ring of truth to me. I am greatly familiar with Valerie Jarrett and her cold ambition. She's never more than a few feet from him during the business day. She is the de facto POTUS. She likes it that way and so does he.

    He likes the glory, fame, and bennies, but not the work. Everything I've seen him do and not do in the last 3 years screams of his lack of interest in the hard work and responsibility. The WH insider's reports on his ways are proven by Obama's actions over and over and what's been written about him.

    Absolutely correct. I'm not a psychiatrist, and I don't play one on TV, but this is typical of his narcissism.

    It's hard for me to believe EVERYBODY can't see this in Obama. Watch him when he's in the WH as compared to when he's on the road. It's like he's two different people!

    Remember the Wall Street Insider's report about that roundtable discussion? Obama participated for about 5 minutes, then pushed his chair back and told Valerie to take over for him. The WH guys were stunned when she started speaking for him. Geesh, get a clue... who do you think pulls his strings everyday???

    LOL, darn... I was gonna ask for some free medical advice if you played one on TV.

    I think Oprah has a few openings on her new cable channel! Maybe you could moonlight?

    It seems he is more interested in talking about work more so than actual working. Maybe this is part of his Community Organizer training, they do encourage others to do their bidding for them.

    From the WSJ article:

    This from the man who rarely attends WH meetings for longer than 5 min., then leaves and asks for a transcript to be sent to him later. What do you think he does with those transcripts? Yep, hands 'em off to one of his advisers to decipher for him.

    Amazing

    Good point. It's what he knows. Form a group of willing volunteers, then stand back and let 'em do all the work.

    As opposed to a business executive who knows how to roll up his sleeves and show others how to get things done.

    It's like it's all scripted to him, I doubt he makes any main decisions..He was elected as a face and they got what the main players wanted. Hell there was no way they were going to let Clinton tell them what to do.
    Look at Obama Care,,that was all Pelosi and company even the plan came from Mitt.

    Wait. Karl Rove said something bad about our Democrat POTUS on Fox News? Well then that seals it for me. Everything negative said about Obama now MUST be true!

    Does Karl Rove have anything nice to say about anyone? (R) or (D) Seems like all I ever see or hear from him is negativity about everyone. That dude is a blowhard.

    Obamacare is a good example. He never really seemed to understand how it worked, what it would cost.

    That doesn't make is untrue. Everyone can see for themselves how slack he is.

    Remember when the public got really mad at him for waiting to speak out on the BP spill and then lambasted how he handled it? I do.

    How about what's really important to him? GOLF

    That doesn't make it true either. Not everyone can see that. Just those who dispise him. I don't dispise him. I just wish he had a bigger set. But he's a Dem. Typical, unfortunately. Yoo bad your party doesn't like Ron Paul.

    People were upset about the BP Spill in general. Not just the way Obama handled it. Bush kinda handled Katrina a lot worse, IMO.

    Well, we all have our hobbies! I enjoy hangin with the Mrs. drinking beer and occasionally shooting my toys!

    He admits he was a slacker in school -- and had to be pushed by his grandmother & teachers to achieve. Maybe that's the problem... they're all dead and there's nobody left to push him.

    Valerie sure as hell won't push him. She gets off on the power he gives her... you can tell by her facial expressions & body language. And her constant presence.

    Ms. Jarrett luvs it that Barry's such a slacker. She'd be a nobody if it wasn't for him... and yet here she is, influencing national policy.

    Probably more than we can even imagine.

    I don't despise him either. Why must you make it personal? It's his policies and performance I take issue with. With all due respect, I consider the left's frequent attempts to make it personal to be a just a tactic. If you're honest with yourself, you know it is.
    My party? I'm registered unaffiliated. I'm a conservative small L libertarian and a Constitutionalist.
    Fema botched that deal and since it was on Bush's watch, the responsibility for it falls on him. But I'm not interested in blaming OR defending Mr. Bush. This is about Mr. Obama.
    TMI sir, TMI. LOL

    Nov 2010: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3R3Bl3bK2U"]Dick Armey: Obama 'passively disinterested'[/ame]

    I think it's safe to assume it's not just Karl Rove (or the WH Insider) who see a disinterested president. Barack Obama has one goal... getting himself re-elected. Everything else is secondary to that mission.

    It's been obvious for quite some time now. The BP spill was like....wtf ????
    Yet the Cambridge police incident...he went shooting his mouth off right away and ended up looking foolish.
