had made that crack about the Special Olympics? Of course, never will be heard a discouraging word about it in the MSM; if The One does it, it must be good.

elected to high office instead of that Special Olympics champion from Alaska as the VP? I tell you, it worried me no end back in the fall that a female governor with solid accomplishments and a particularly strong set of creds with the developmentally challenged might end up in the new administration. Yes indeed, that was a real bugaboo.

Instead, we have this lovely man who makes all of us beam with pride and respect on an hourly basis. Never a day goes by that I don’t thank Gaia for the gift of Obama and Michelle’s lovely arms.

Disclaimer: For those who know me here, they know what I’m saying, for those who don’t—-IT WAS ALL SARCASM. This man is a disgrace, not just as a citizen or a senator, he is a national disgrace, he is a………. Well, I guess I need to do some deep breathing myself. I had an uncle who was brain-damaged at birth and never developed beyond the mental age of 4. He is, blessedly, already gone to be whole and strong with his Maker.

REAL Americans don’t condescend to developmentally challenged people. They just treat them like actual people, make friends, challenge them, support them.

And he’s certainly not worthy of POTUS.

Thanks for sharing your story. I have two siblings who worked with the mentally challenged in group homes and one of them is now a special needs teacher for the mentally challenged. They both have many similar stories about these our brothers and sisters and how beautiful, honest, sensitive, and hard working they are.

Such a joke is typical of one who hasn’t matured beyond high school. Obama is a cad; a juvenile who won at debate meets, looked down at those who lost, made sure everyone knew he won, only had the kind of friends with whom he could make fun of others, but no real friends.

On a personal level I pity the man for his smallness and self-absorption and the torture he’s not even aware of within himself. On every other level I fear what he has done and will do while weakly at the helm of this ship of state as it’s adrift and gale force winds are pushing it hard to port toward the jagged cliffs. Don’t forget: the Titanic was too big and great to sink, too.

I’d like to recommend your diary, but the system won’t let me for some reason.

My reaction? Outrage and a firm conclusion that the president is a self-absorbed, juvenile piece of work, unworthy of the office he now occupies.

Some amounts of narcissim are healthy because it’s a self-preservation adaptation. However, when it becomes the be all/end all of a person’s existence, that person loses the best parts of being human. They can mouth platitudes and sound like they care, but they truly lack empathy and understanding of how others might feel. That’s why such gaffes happen. In an unguarded moment away from his teleprompter…

But he apologized later and all is forgiven, right, because he really does care?

This reminds of the George Allen “macaca” controversy. Allen lost his Senate seat because he called a tracker from Jim Webb’s campaign “macaca.” Liberals were outraged. How is this any different? Now *we’re* being “too sensitive.”

What would anyone expect from a five and dime man elected to an office of a country he has nothing in common with? Its already a disaster after two months and his policies haven’t even taken effect yet. When this man is unscripted look out. Here is a bigger issue. Barack HUSSEIN Obama wants closer ties with Iran. Again not a surprise. Barack HUSSEIN Obama. Barack HUSSEIN Obama. Barack HUSSEIN Obama.

It appears we’ve all gone PC…

The President made a joke. Was it really worthy of the outrage expressed here?

Yeah, the Left would hammer an conservative who would make such a remark, but aren’t we a little more thick-skinned than that? Or have we adopted their speech codes?

And, yeah, my friend’s son has Down’s and my cousin has Down’s and I know a friendly, intelligent boy with Cerebral Palsy.

My daughter has Down Syndrome – so while it is easy to take the comment personally, I’m not PC and I don’t particularly care what people say in general. However, for a man who claims to represent the disadvantaged, the downtrodden, the little guy – only shows what a complete fraud he is and it confirms my suspicion that he does not even have good intentions.

He is a hateful bigot who is bent on soaking anyone who achieves and at the same time, loathes those who cannot. Combine that with the fact that he is the most powerful man in the world and that makes him a genuine tyrant.
