McCain laments state of Obama's mind
[Iran Press TV] Sen. John Maverick McCain
... the Senator-for-Life from Arizona, former presidential candidate and even more former foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution...
(R-Ariz.) lamented the state of Barack Obama
Dreams of My Sainted Father...
's mind on Wednesday, remarking that the second-term president seems to be filled with "self-pity."

"The self-pity that Obama continues to exhibit is really kind of sad, really," McCain told Fox News' Greta Van Susteren.

The Arizona Republican was responding to comments Obama made at a fundraiser in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, on Wednesday evening, where he suggested that the GOP could be more "loyal and rational" in running the government.

"You know, I can't work with him at all," McCain added. "When is the last time he really called leaders of both parties together over at the White House for a dinner, a social event."

The exchange is a familiar one between Republicans and the Democratic president. When Obama complains the GOP doesn't do enough to compromise, as he frequently does on the campaign trail, Republican politicians often wonder why he doesn't reach across the aisle in an effort to pass lasting reforms on key issues.

#1  "Theself-pity that Obama continues to exhibit is really kind of sad, really,"

Sorry, it's a tad beyond "sad." The combination of consistently bad or egregiously inadequate, spiteful behavior with frequent plays for pity, and frequent escapes for self pleasure are classic symptoms of a sociopath.

#2  The saddest thing, senator, is what you turned your country to him to avoid being unPC.

Feel sad for the country and what he has done to undermine it.

#4  Yes, Senator. That is very sad indeed. It's not quite as sad that you haven't retired yet but it's close.

#5  There are a number of articles out there addressing Mr. Obama's psyche. Some are pretty damn frightening (The Freudian statement about how he's "...pretty good at killing people.", etc.).

Don't know whose hand is at the tiller, but we can't have a change of crew soon enough, imho...

#6  President Choom just hit 39% approval, headed for low 30's shortly. Unfortunately, that means currently 39% of the population is as disgusting as he is.

#7  Go eat your green lapel and shit it in your mouth McCain.

#8  Juan McCain would've been as amnesty-prone as Obama. FOAD,
