interesting question. to a large degree, I'm not really sure what I expect out of the obama administration. he has no history, no track record; nothing to really base expectations on. I thought it was a little surprising that he stepped in it that badly, though.
The guy's a megalomaniac, narcissist of the highest order. He takes Limbaugh personally and, it looks like, sees the threat that Limbaugh and his brand of free conservative speech present. And, yes, it was amateurish -- stupid -- of Obama. Wonder where his handlers are?
BHO's reaction doesn't surprise me, though. But what does is how easily he can apparently be distracted. It's become a pattern now. This, his grabbing that reporter on the shoulder, etc.
But the guy's a product of that sewer called the Chicago Political Machine. Mabye this is how they do things there? Don't know. But, wow, you'd think that by now Obama and his minions would understand that he can't break wind without someone reporting it.
As someone said elsewhere, maybe on this thread, when they meet, Putin will eat Obama's lunch. But I suspect there'll be others dining at that open buffet.
Not good for America or Obama.
