Obama Stands Alone: Even the media are baffled by his deepening isolation


Posted: Aug 22, 2014

Article by Howard Kurtz at FOX News. Yes, I typed FOX News!

;

Well, it's easy to understand why he would - sm

want to be in isolation. He has been beaten down EVERY SINGLE DAY of his Presidency since DAY ONE, with Fox being one of his harshest critics.

If you beat a dog, repeatedly, EVERY SINGLE DAY, you will soon find he/she wants to be curled up in a corner, in isolation!!

It's like being completely shocked because someone you stab in the heart has the audacity to BLEED!

oh pulllease - Everything anyone has said - Mrs. Tingles - sm

regarding how he handles issues and what is going on is a direct result of what Obama actions. All presidents face scrutiny. Obama is no different than anyone else, repeat....no different. These are real issues. You didn't see the other presidents crying about it. "Oh...waaaaa Fox is filled with meanies...I want to do whatever I want to...waaaaaaa"

His isolation has nothing to do with Fox. That has to be one of the lamest things I've read, although there are some other excuses that fall in the all time lame excuses too.

There is more going on behind the scenes than people know about. But what do people expect when they create their own problems.

Reminds me of that saying..."You burn my house down then act surprised that I'm upset"

I think it has more to do with the fact that - he has no political aspirations

He'd prefer to be alone and let the idiots fight it out amongst themselves. He has some major decisions and getting sucked into the political garbage doesn't help. He also could be keeping the issues isolated and more attributable to him so as not to affect the next Democrat running for President.
So he cares more about the "next Democrat" - than the entire country?

Figures. It fits right in with his narcissistic personality.
No, they have no interest in doing any - real work anyway.

"Has nothing to do with Fox"? - sm

For crying out loud, the supporting link regarding this "isolation" the OP used WAS FROM FOX, and your rejection of that FACT is VERY lame, indeed.

It's the reporting of Fox that claims he is in "isolation."
Fox is fair and balanced. - SM

They had a liberal, Juan Williams, hosting Bill O'Reilly's show last night.

BTW, the article by Mr. Kurtz cites sources from the New York Times. It's not always all about Fox, but you can continue to feel threatened by them if you prefer that stance.
Just because he is more liberal than BOR - does not make him liberal
[ In Reply To ..]
National Public Radio fired Williams for his comments on the O'Reilly Factor Monday night, when he said it makes him nervous to fly on airplanes with devout Muslims (2010).

Fox News is not fair and balanced. They are racist and destructive.
You're entitled to your left opinion. - I'm entitled to my RIGHT opinion.

Because that is all it is, opinion. No further comment.
EVERYONE, not just Fox is noticing his isolation - sm
[ In Reply To ..]
Yeah....FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

Look it up. The first article I read about his isolation was in the New York Times. Morning Joe (MSNBC) and I'm finding several other sources (including Fox) talking about him isolating himself and his abnormal behavior. He talks about the beheading of one of our citizens, then does a fist bump with a smile and goes off golfing.

Trying to pin this on Fox is VERY lame. It is Obama's actions that has the world talking about this (not just Fox). The headlines are "Even media are baffled by Obama's isolation".

Obama has brought this on by himself. Can't blame it on Bush or anyone else.

Oh, wow. It's not just Fox. Here's one. (sm) - LM

many people are saying it, NYT had 2 articles on his "isolationism". Here's one from Fla.

It's called vacation. He is golfing while Rome is burning and when his vacation is over, he will be back on the campaign trail and Rome will continue to burn.

He's really that wussified?? Is that what you are saying? - OMG

That's pretty sad. You mean he got his widoo feewings hawted?

How rude! I made it clear what I meant. - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
And you know exactly what I meant.

More Obama bashing. Just sick of it!
Not rude. - Thick skin needed
[ In Reply To ..]
Its not Obama bashing, it's just stating the facts.

Yeah, I'm just sick of these lame blame games.
"Did he get his little feewings hawted" does not - qualify as "facts." :/

Yes rude. - Education needed.

ROFL - Exactly! THANK YOU! - Except he has no feelings

[ In Reply To ..]
No feelings, no empathy, no sympathy. The only thing he cares about is when his next vacation will be.

Good grief - the right has devolved into a party of - KINDERGARTNERS.

The Washington Post’s James Hohmann has a round-up of key points made last night – and they were blows against the Donald. But they were blows based on his own words and history: He started the debate on the defensive over his refusal to rule out ...
