Many
conservative blogs have seized on the recent 60 Minutes interview of President Obama by CBS’s Steve Kroft. The focus of the interview was not the televised
version—rather the comment that, as it turned out, was an outtake at the end of
the recorded interview.
"As you
yourself said, Steve, I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments
in our first two years against any president—with the possible exceptions of
Johnson, FDR and Lincoln. You know, just in terms of what we've gotten done in
modern history," Obama said, according to the aforementioned clip that
never made it to broadcast.
I get the fact
that this megalomaniacal, narcissistic sociopath believes he saved us from a
great depression. I get that this is all
part of The Won’s legendary humility, but really…the fourth best president
evah?
I am reminded
of the 1992 Republican
National Convention at which former President Ronald Reagan said, “Well,
let me tell you something; I knew Thomas Jefferson. He was a friend of mine and,
Governor…You're no Thomas Jefferson!”
Charles
Krauthammer offered
some sage advice for Captain Humility:
“When a Roman conquering general returned and had a triumphal procession
in Rome, with the crowds cheering and calling him all kinds of godly names,
there was a courtier in the back of the chariot who whispered in his ear, ‘Remember
thou art but a mortal.’ Obama ought to
hire that guy. He’s old, but I think he’s
still around.”
