I was watching President Bush in the stands of the USA-China basketball game and it occurred to me that this is a guy whose core being has not been changed by being president. I think that’s what the Left hates about him. He’s still a regular guy.
On the other hand, John Edwards told the world how even his third-rate presidential efforts affected him:
I started to believe that I was special and became increasingly egocentric and narcissistic.
As the Barack Obama arrogance meme takes hold even among late-night talk show hosts, it almost seems that Edwards’ words could apply to the presumptive Democratic nominee himself.
My favorite from Jay Leno:
“After a quick meet-and-greet with King Abdullah, Obama was off to Israel, where he made a quick stop at the manger in Bethlehem where he was born.”
