One of the biggest critiques of him is that he is aloof and doesn't stand for anything, and he plays right into it by doing shit like this while there are serious problems to deal with. It's not that he can't do both, but it's a bad perception to give the public.

Looks natural to me.

There are times that I also think he is trying too hard. That being said I have no problem with him doing things like this. He's trying to get young people to go sign up for health coverage. Not doing entertainment show won't change the perception that he doesn't stand for anything. Actually standing for something will change that.

Obama Is like the popular kid that uses his/her charm to get ahead! His soft skills are at the top of any president ever including Bill Clinton. That being said there are always people not going to like you and point out your weakness. Yes Obama is aloof and doesn't seem to have a good grasp of foreign policy, but every human being president or not only has so many strong skills and covers there weakness by working with experts in certain domains. The next president people will complain about him/her for one thing or another... The previous president Bush was seen as incompetent and over sought the worst financial crisis in the history of US... While Obama the stock market has hit record highs, but people complain about healthcare. There is always going to be something to complain about weather democrat or republican.

really? so we went from being the most hated and laughed at country on the planet, so bad that people flew planes into 3,000 of our civilians, back to somewhat respectable and obama has nothing to do with it? gimme a break poser, the worst thing obama did during his presidency was being black. had he been white and republican he would have been the 2nd abraham lincoln.

obama is aloof? what the fuck does that make george W or H or clinton or shit even kennedy or pick anyone else. obama is extremely intelligent, and it takes a dumbass to think that someone who is cool, confident and in control as meaning they dont care or dont even know whats going on. aloof is just another rnp tagline spit out by murdoch as a daily talking point.

I was only taking about Obama's foreign policy as being a weakness for Obama in my post. Obama has made 'Red Line' threats in Syria, Ukraine, North Korea, Iran, etc.... and nothing has come of it. Because of the NSA leaks about spying on foreign leaders he is now not trusted by America's Allies like Germany and UK.

No, I think Clinton really thrives on networking and interacting. He's a pure extrovert.

Maybe he enjoys it but its pandering or comes off as such


He doesn't give a fuck about your high school football career but he'll make you believe he's enthralled with the story


That's how I see it anyway

I hope that was the entire Talking Points Memo. Like, didn't even read it out loud, just threw it up on the screen, looked at the camera like "just SAYIN'," and then moved on to interviewing Dennis Miller or hawking his latest book of death porn.

Even in his books that aren't Killing _____, he's killing people:

Quote:
The antagonist is a tall, "no-nonsense" television journalist named Shannon Michaels, described as the product of two Celtic parents, who is pushed out by Global News Network, and systematically murders the people who ruined his career.


Agent Michael Scarn!

Everyone wanted my goalie's. Losing my top 4 picks last year because of an error by the commissioner set my franchise back. Missing the draft this year didn't help either.

I was just ball busting. You have to admit that it wasn't exactly an English textbook. And Chas is not exactly known for being an English professor. Didn't comment at all on content.
