Obama and Steve Kroft did an interview for 60mins but what you did not hear was this clip. This part was cut out of the 60mins interview:
I'm the fourth best president in American history ~ Barack Obama - YouTube
Any good cartoons on?
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.H.L. Mencken
Oh you sound so tuff when you talk dirty. LOLPresident Obama might be under some illusion he's the 4th best President but the foundational core which took him into office is literally eroding right out from under his 4th rate feet.

And Cenk is right about Gingrich but even worse the republican idiots will vote in a replacement just as bad. Just as Obama is Bush term 3, if the republicans carry the day, their voting track record is they'll vote in Obama term 2 under the label republican.
Oh, don't like what I said about stupid republicans? Then on election day proven me wrong and for ING once vote in somebody who actually reins in gov't. Otherwise stop pretending to be WHAT YOU AIN'T!
Simple, to try to win.I'll give you that Obama is probably arrogant, but why the double standard? As Wk points out, there is not a single republican candidate that lacks this, uh, quality/attribute. But for them, the right seems to cheer loudest for the brashest display of hubris. Why?
And the difference between confidence and arrogance is...?Simple, to try to win.
There is a fine line between arrogance and confidence. Would you support someone that is not confident that they can do better than the others wanting to take on the task? Don't kid yourself, all people are drawn to confidence.
delivery...strictly a matter of personal preference?
delivery
Wouldn't that be interpretation ?Which of itself is subject to the preference of each member of the audience.
Ok. So the difference between arrogance and confidence is interpretation, not delivery and interpretation is a function of the listener not the speaker. Therefore, when someone sees Obama as arrogant and Gingrich/Cain/Bachman/Perry/Paul as confident we are told more about the listener than we are about the speaker.Wouldn't that be interpretation ?
