#1 Why? Too conceited to lower himself to the grubby world of politics.

I suppose that fits in with the narcissist theory.

Or, having set the ship of state on a collision course, he wants to get off the boat before it sinks.

#4 He acts more like a spoiled and inbred Roman emperor rather than a president.

#8 A year ago I was getting 'poop listed' for comparing the bugger to Caligula. My how attitudes have changed.

#9 Caligula or Claudius?

Caligula put a horse in the Senate. Obama only achieved half of that.

#12 World Emperor of the UN. Being POTUS is far too much work and not enuf travel. The Hildebeast will be our next democratic candidate.

#14 It would be a good gig if it weren't for all the troublesome plebeians in fly-over land and it allowed more time for golf. BHO thought the swearing in meant deification not work.

#15 The "deification" came much, much earlier. Sometime after the name change, but certainly well before the trip to Pakistan and the biographies.
