NBC's Political Director: When You Think About It, The Story of the Veteran Soldier Who Did Ten Tours of Duty and Was Badly Injured Defending This Nation and Who Now Spends Every Day in Painful Physical Rehabilitation Is Kind of Obama's Story, Isn't it?
— Ace

Dude, you nailed it!!!

Obama is indeed like this multiply-wounded, multiply-decorated hero. For both men, nothing has "come easy." I mean, when Bill Ayers took a shine to Obama and gave him a high-dollar paper-pushing sinecure at his charity, that was hard. Like getting shot to pieces, and having a roadside bomb blow molten shrapnel into his brain.

And when Bill Ayers plugged him into his own radical network of aging, wealthy hippies and started Obama's political career from his living room, that was tough sledding. Like having to re-learn how to use your limbs and learn to read and speak again.

And when Bill Ayers wrote Obama's book for him... well, that was like winning the Silver Star.

This is egregious. This is girlish fanboism at its most pubescent (and putrescent).

This is NBC's political director -- not a DKos Diarist.


Former White House speechwriter Jon Favreau -- who recently documented the travail of the "grueling" process of writing the State of the Union speech (the president puts in "back to back 2am nights" rewriting someone else's words!!-- oh my gosh, oh my goodness!) -- heartily agreed.


My first thought was rather about the soldier himself, but I suppose different people have different agendas.

Mollie Hemmingway writes about this and notes something special. You can't excuse this Bieberesque infantile homoerotic obsession as just being a factor of Twitter's compressed and slapdash format.

Nope! When Mark Murray (NBC Political Director) had the opportunity to use as many words as are necessary to convey the full and complete character of his thoughts -- that is, when he was writing NBC's "First Read" column -- he said the same thing.

Except, even more embarrassingly.

*** “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.

Ah yes. The "glitchy" website and political fallout from incompetence. Just like getting nearly killed by an IED.

In this analogy, wouldn't Obama be more like the IED itself rather than the victim of the IED?

And, just like Cory Rehmsburg, learning to overcome a serious brain injury, Obama is a real "grinder." I mean, he puts in back to back 2am nights once per year, rewriting someone else's words into his own voice.

It's "grueling," I tell you. In a way, isn't the story of Anne Frank really Obama's story, too?

After all, neither could smoke in their own home. Think about it.

Egregious. Just egregious.

Murray is now doubling down on throne-sniffing.

We were not comparing Remsburg’s story directly to Obama, who in a way has lived a charmed life (especially before becoming president),” Murray said. “But we were talking about the story of perseverance – and that does apply to Obama. Stumbling, making mistakes, and getting up from defeat. That is the story that we said could apply to Obama.”

You can see the lines of perseverance,
and the rejuvenating aloe-and-saffron-oil beauty masks,
etched into his weathered face


“Just talking about the story of perseverance,” when asked specifically about his linking Obama being politically “bloodied and bruised” to Remsburg’s real wounds. “And no doubt, the president and his supporters see the story of perseverance as the lesson of the Obama presidency, if it is to be successful.”

Thanks to @rdbrewer4.

The New Class

No one has ever struggled like us, scrabbling and clawing our way all the way from going-nowhere pit of the upper middle class to the exalted lowest rungs of the upper class.

We like ourselves a whole heck of a lot.

And since Obama only ever got any political job of his because he cheated the system every single time.

 

And because he works so hard......on his pathetic golf game.

This embarrassingly puppy dog-like adoration of the President by the MSM, combined with its corresponding lack of self-awareness and perspective, is historically unprecedented, to use their favorite word when describing Obama.  They'll never get their credibility back. Even those who share the MSM's love of Obama and the Progressive Agenda will know they're not reading/viewing/listening to anything remotely resembling objective truth.  

 

Think about it:  during the Cold War, we made fun of Pravda. We laughed even harder at Baghdad Bob. Joke's on us now, I guess.

So that's it? An election campaign, health insurance "reform" crafted by Congress et al., and then a re-election campaign? That's the total sum of a 6+ year presidency? And the one notable accomplishment sandwiched between campaigns is one that most of the country despises, is the Big Lie of the State, and is the single biggest albatross on this "historic" campaigner?

242 So the other jarring thing about Obama's invocation of this badly wounded soldier is that if you look at the timeline, this guy and several others in his unit were blown up in Trashcanistan in October of 2009.

That was the same period of time in which Obama, eight full months in office by then, was dithering hopelessly, going back and forth with the generals and his various civilian advisers about what the plan was for AFG, not having bothered to actually arrive in office with a working plan for what he had called his "top priority".

Of course, such other priorities as signing the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act came first for Obama. Let's not lose sight of what's really important.

Meanwhile, the ordinary service grunts actually in theater, and in daily heavy contact with hostiles, suffered from inadequate manpower, supply shortages, and dangerously restrictive rules of engagement.

So, basically, this poor guy and others just like him paid the price for Obama's lack of preparation, lack of decisiveness and inability to prioritize. He gets life-altering injuries and a chance to be used as a political prop to be immediately forgotten by Obama. Such a deal.

I don't have a TV to watch any longer. I terminated it with extreme prejudice.

Still, when traveling, I'll find myself stuck in a hotel room and have read everything I've brought with me, and am not able to get a working Internet connection, and I'll flip on the TV for a few hours.

It's like being transported to an utterly alien planet. I am always gobsmacked.

So when I witness daily the utter stupidity of average Americans, I have to remind myself that they live on that planet for six or seven hours a day, day after day, month after month, year after year. While never reading anything. And nowadays, typically starting off in front of the glass teat before they can walk or talk.

328 I saw this on Twitchy.  I stand by my comments that Murray is a reprehensible piece of filth who personifies the whole "the media is Liberal" meme.

To claims that Obama has ANYTHING in common with a soldier injured fighting for his country (aside from the elementary fact that both are carbon based life forms) is disgusting.

Obama hasn't had to do anything in life.  From being born to wealth to getting things handed to him for his skin color (like the Presidency), he has never had to actually DO anything.  He's been told he is a special snowflake without doing a single thing to demonstrate it.

Murray is what is wrong with the Left.  When Obama isn't being the very essence of Narcissus, his cult followers are doing it for him.

Disgusting microbes all.

Mostly nowhere. It's really interesting to read the stories of those who have made the journey, like David Mamet. Either they started to look askance at the temperaments of those they were associating themselves with, or they started asking reasonable questions and met only rejection and censure, or they read or listened to one of the Forbidden People (like Rush) and found their words to make sense. Haven't seen one yet where someone was reasoned out of their delusive leftist place by someone else's perseverance. Some of these people are very smart; some are highly accomplished in their fields, but they have learned to shut their brains off when it comes to politics, and focus only on the Evil Republicans and the Oh-So-Good Democrats, and the tactics of the conflict between them.

421 As is typical with the JEF. Just like his fake Greek columns, everything is a prop to this fuck. I don't think for one second he gives two shits about anyone in the military. They are merely play things for him. God I hate him. Oh and Mark Murray if you're reading this. Epic fail at backpedaling you simplistic douche.

424 Yes, they both stumbled but it took an IED going off in his face to cause Remsburg to stumble. And no, Mark, a dick going off in your face doesn't count.

Mark Murray would eat a mile of Michelle's shit in the hopes that he would get a mere taste of the President's wang.

 

I figured it that was a possibility, there'd be a line of journalists hoping for a chance.

428 Obama's MO, insofar as he has one, is to make a speech full of unlikely promises, then to have some staffers and True Believers in Congress try and back up his bullshit. Unsurprisingly, it works rather badly.

438 Mark "Don't Call Me Patty" Murray has given us a fine example of what lefties were calling a "Hoekstra" just a few short years ago.

Oh, but Murray is somehow to be taken seriously, huh?

440 “But we were talking about the story of perseverance – and that does apply to Obama. Stumbling, making mistakes, and getting up from defeat. That is the story that we said could apply to Obama.” =========================== The only mistake Remsburg made was serving his country under the authority of a narcissistic coward who sent him to war solely for political and electoral reasons.
