President I, Me, Mine

This has been discerned for quite some time as this commentary on Obama's State of the Union speech in 2013 posits:

Completely Self-Absorbed Obama Gets Up And Just Talks For An Hour Straight

. . . "Millions across the country expressed amazement and aggravation at the sheer audacity displayed by Obama, noting that he paused only briefly during his lengthy and pompous monologue to allow the crowd to applaud what he was saying, behavior many likened to that of a small, emotionally needy child.

"Moreover, sources noted that Obama demanded to be broadcast on every major television network during primetime, evidently as some sort of self-important ploy to force as much of the population as he could to listen to him speak.". . .

Obama most 'self-absorbed president' in history   . . . "Regarding the government shutdown, I predict that the Republicans will be viewed not only at midterm elections, but also by the world at large, as the only ones who would stand up to the most self-absorbed president in American history." . . .

Peggy Noonan: WH Staffers Nickname President 'Obam-me'   "White House staffers have adopted a new and unflattering nickname for their boss: "Obam-me," Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan says she heard in chats with a few senators. 

"And how did the staffers come up with that name?

" 'Because it's all about him and his big thoughts," Noonan writes in a column. "I guess the second-term team is not quite as adoring as the first.' " . . .

Late commentaries on the Ferguson ambush

Andrew C. McCarthy: In Ferguson, Guilt Should Not Be Collectivized, But It Should Be Apportioned  (Commentary on the article following this one)
. . .  "To say that the mayor, the attorney general, and the president are not guilty of last weekend’s murders of two police officers is not to say they are blameless. To distinguish them from the murderer is not to pronounce them suitable for the weighty public trusts they hold. There is guilt here to be apportioned. Apportioning it is not collectivizing it — it is not engaging in the same convoluted demagoguery that blamed Sarah Palin’s electioneering for a mass-murder in Tucson by a man with a history of mental illness, or that blamed bourgeois America for the killing of John F. Kennedy by a Communist." . . .

PowerLine: THE FERGUSON SHOOTING: BLAME THE ASSASSIN, NOT POLITICIANS

[The two police officers] were not shot by Barack Obama. They were not shot by Eric Holder. And they were not shot by “the media” or by the Democratic party. The shooter wasn’t forced to pull the trigger by “the protests,” and nor was his crime commissioned by our latent “political culture.” Al Sharpton was nowhere to be seen. Rather, a man who was in possession of his own agency made a terrible, disastrous decision. Observers who have today attempted to indict the entire post-Ferguson activist movement for his crime should know better than to imply otherwise.

Legal Insurrection:  #Ferguson is a no-win for the police

. . . "I’m not entirely sure where a group of racist twenty-something idiots comes into a discussion about police officers getting shot and/or using deadly force to protect themselves, but hey, might as well drag everything into the pot while the fire’s hot.

"MSNBC’s Ed Schultz isn’t helping, either. On Monday, he suggested disarming the Ferguson PD entirely, and today, he asked whether or not police really needed to be at these protests to begin with." . . .

Springtime for Chaos in Ferguson

. . . "Anonymous is not the only far-left group that has tried to turn Ferguson into the American Bastille. As the Daily Beast and the Blaze reported last year, well-known Communist agitators flooded into town following the death of Michael Brown with the goal of keeping emotions high and the revolution roiling. But the most-effective left-wing activist in Ferguson has got to be Eric Holder’s Justice Department. " . . .H/T to Instapundit

Barack Obama Banters With Jimmy Kimmel About Life In The White House, Ferguson

HuffPo

"LOS ANGELES (AP) — President Barack Obama read "Mean Tweets" on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" Thursday night, but he was unfazed.

"After enduring the routine — in which celebrities read hostile Twitter comments about themselves — Obama told Kimmel, "You should see what the Senate says about me."

"The president also joked about the perks and restrictions he faces, revealing that he's not allowed to use cellphones that have recorders in them. (Hence his ever-present BlackBerry.) He also noted that he can visit the dentist in the White House basement but doesn't text and can't drive." . . .
