"Schmatta" Chuck Todd, NBC Compare Barack Obama to an Injured War Hero?????

Todd is a Schmatta as in a doormat sycophant! To the contrary, the ONLY thing that was given to Obama for doing NOTHING, including the presidency and the Nobel Prize, was the implementation of his signature failure: Obamacare. As Mark Steyn pointed out, everything went well and was just given to Obama based on his never having done anything. He should have stopped while he was ahead.



The PJ Tatler » Chuck Todd, NBC Compare Barack Obama to an Injured War Hero

By Bryan Preston On January 29, 2014
Bias? What media bias? In its post-SOTU First Reading today, NBC News compares President Barack Obama to the injured war hero whom Obama lauded during last night’s speech.

*** “America has never come easy”: Last night’s speech also ended on an emotional — and upbeat — note when Obama recognized Army Ranger Cory Remsburg, who was almost killed in Afghanistan and continues to recuperate from a brain injury. “My fellow Americans, men and women like Cory remind us that America has never come easy,” the president said. “Our freedom, our democracy, has never been easy. Sometimes we stumble, we make mistakes; we get frustrated or discouraged. But for more than 200 years, we have put those things aside and placed our collective shoulder to the wheel of progress.” That story could also apply to Obama himself: Nothing in his seven years on the national political stage (2007-2014) has come easy. The 2008 race for the Democratic nomination. Even that general election. The health-care law. The re-election campaign. And now the president’s current situation in which he finds himself bloodied and bruised after the botched health-care rollout. Perseverance is an important quality for any president. Bill Clinton was usually able to talk his way out of sticky situations. But Obama’s M.O. is to grind it out. That, more than anything else, was the message he wanted to send last night — both he and the country are grinding it out.
Emphasis added.

Obama’s M.O. is not to “grind it out.” His M.O. is to lie first, lie second, lie third, and force policies that most Americans don’t want. His M.O. is to wage policy wars “under the radar” and to constantly misrepresent his opposition while presenting his extreme policies in the most favorable light possible. His M.O. is to erect vast armies of straw men and then burn them down. His M.O. is when the going gets tough for him in Washington, he gets going — on the road, where he can speak before adoring audiences of hand-picked supporters.
