Oh Brother… Liberal CNN Reporter: Obama Has Morphed From Clark Kent Into Superman
Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, September 21, 2011, 8:19 PM
Everyone who thinks Barack Obama is Superman – raise your hand!
Oh brother.
CNN opinion writer Gloria Borger wrote this week that President Downgrade has morphed from Clark Kent into Superman.
Via Pundit Press:
Washington (CNN) — What did you do over your summer vacation?
If you’re President Obama, you’ve had a bit of a transformation. That is, from the mild-mannered Clark Kent into, well, Superman.
Or something like that.
When we last left this story, President Obama was trying to be the measured adult in the room, compromising over the debt ceiling to get a deal. In the end, it wasn’t the “grand bargain” that Obama wanted. Liberals argued that it was awful, too — chastising the president for negotiating with himself. And Republicans complained that they needed more spending cuts. And, oh, by the way, they still wanted to repeal health care reform.
In other words, an unsatisfactory experience for all.
So when Obama came back to D.C. this fall, the feeling inside the White House was that something had to change. The bad news: Mr. Adult (aka Mr. Compromise) had sunk to new lows in the ratings. The good news: Congress had sunk even lower. Way lower. Then House Speaker John Boehner gave a speech outlining his demands for the deficit reduction “supercommittee.” Top of the list: no new taxes.
Shocking, I know.
That about did it. The White House figured it had no partner for peace. The man who had almost signed on to the grand bargain — with some tax increases and entitlement cuts — wasn’t about to come back to the table anytime soon.
The next step: play the game.

Jimmy Olsen maybe.

Time for a career change Gloria…If this is the kind of work you are putting out…better to work at a convalescent home sponge bathing and changing bed pans . Its the same clean up work you are doing for Obama, but the Lord will bless you for it.
Cutlers bad knee commented:
This must be after the kryptonite kicked in….If this is what you imagine Superman is like, then Lex Luther gets my vote……
Gride commented:
If you were to show this photo to a bunch of aliens and said point out the most powerful man on Earth, I guarantee Obama would be the last one picked out every time. He is no Superman.
It is amazing that their are some who still fall for the whole messiah thing and drink the Kool-aid
vityas commented:
There’s no cure for brain damage. You just have to slowly go through rehab and let other parts of the brain learn everything anew. Apparently, Gloria has a long road ahead of her.
Bigkahuna commented:
LOL He has morphed from Hope and Change to No Hope and No Change left.
He morphed from a dick to a collosal clusterf*ck.
Cant propose a budget
Cant propose anything that doesnt include tax increases
Lied about balancing budget
Lied about going line by line and cutting waste fraud and abuse.
He is the definition of waste , fraud and abuse.

Who is the guy behind Obama’s hand? Is it the Chinese guy? Is Obama giving China ‘the finger’, so to speak? Who is it?
Buffalobob commented:
Gloria your close, superman? no mighty mouse maybe.
Rusty_MonkeyBars commented:
Let’s be realistic. When you graduate with a Liberal Arts degree from a university like Colgate, your options are limited – mainly liberal. Fortunately for Borger’s supposed career, CBS threw her a flotation devise early on so that she could plague the National Politics scene with an encouraged jaundice reporting, until mutual discomfort set in for both her and CBS.
Now her lack-luster life plays out at CNN where she’s allowed to sweep the floors and turn out the lights on the final thirty minutes of a 3-hour Situation Room; while flapping her flippers for PBS and Chris Matthews whenever they toss her a fish.
After reading her words, is it any wonder that she has never made an impression in any real journalistic sense? You’ll have to admit, however, she does play her clone role in the State-run media adequately, if not predictably.
a former dem commented:
Poor Gloria Borger, first Weak-news kicks her out, then CNN hires her, and she makes an ignorant a$$ of herself everytime she opens her mouth, and now she’s acting as Barry’s campaign staff in hopes they will hire her.
These people have absolutely no clue how much the country, the vast millions of people, are laughing at these fools.
GrayRider commented:
Cue in the music from the Twilight Zone.
Dave-O commented:
How did poor Gloria manage to get off her knees long enough to write this puff piece?
Sasja commented:
Skandia. Believe it’s one of the leaders of Mongolia.
arnonerik commented:
What is it about stupid Democrats that they don’t understand the simplest concepts.
Concept #1- We have a spending problem, not a revenue problem.
Concept #2- You don’t raise taxes on anybody during a recession/depression, let alone an increase on the job producers when unemployment is at crises rates.
Concept #3 – If you have to subsidize a business ( like Solyndra ) it’s because investors doubt their viability and nobody wants to pay for their product or service. It’s just an opportunity for graft and corruption.
Concept #4 – The Government cannot directly create real jobs; but fear and uncertainty can keep the real job creators from expanding their business and bureaucratic regulations can kill American industries and jobs.
Concept #4- Obama is the worst thing that has happened to America (and the Democrat Party) in recent history.
Gride commented:
arnonerik,
Amazing isn’t it? I mean these are things a child could understand.
befuddled commented:
Sounds like Gloria Borger gave up her writing career, so she could stay in the kitchen and make Obama his favorite sandwiches. Nice going Gloria. You just set women back a century. While you’re at it, you might as well put some nice creases into his pants and need I remind you that your Superman prefers a lot of starch in shirts.
Valerie commented:
I thought he went from Spiderman to Peter Parker.
D Roamer commented:
I don’t know what she said. Any way, that’s gotta be photo shop, and if it wasn’t, before the second shot, the photo person certainly said discretely, very discretely, every body keep your hands down, please.
Finncrisp commented:
Welcome to the world of “Deep Obama”. Deep in debt, deep in scandal, deep in cronyism, deep in Marxism, deep in the polls.
How deep is your love?
gus commented:
Sounds like Gloria still has JUNGLE FEVER. Sorry Gloria, he’s JANE, not TARZAN.
Larkin commented:
Actually, “superman” is a downgrade for o.
Three years ago, he was “sort of god”.
kansas commented:
In Gloria Borger’s mind maybe. In real life he has morphed into Steve Urkel.
befuddled commented:
A tiny car company backed by former Vice President Al Gore has just gotten a $529 million U.S. government loan to help build a hybrid sports car in Finland that will sell for about $89,000.
The award this week to California startup Fisker Automotive Inc. follows a $465 million government loan to Tesla Motors Inc., purveyors of a $109,000 British-built electric Roadster. Tesla is a California startup focusing on all-electric vehicles, with a number of celebrity endorsements that is backed by investors that have contributed to Democratic campaigns.

Comrade Barry morphed all right – backward from a petulant teenager into a terrible two in the midst of a temper tantrum.

Wow! Someone get Borger some help.

Stupid much, Ms Borger?

One thing must be known by all….Obama is “too PIGMENTED to fail!” Learn it, accept it.

No, Obama has morphed into Mr. Bean. Waving is exactly what Mr. Bean would do.
backhoe commented:
If this irrelevant news reader is claiming Preznint Toonces has evolved into a cartoon character?
I can agree with that…
podunk commented:
what an idiot
Militant Conservative commented:
More like transformed from Alfed E. Newman to Erkel.
That is a serious downgrade.
powder is dry
RKflorida commented:
This picture is NOT photoshopped. There is a video of the same scene.
Rush said it best, he looks exactly like Alfred E. Newman, just like Military Conservative said.
Militant Conservative commented:
Militant Conservative. President downgrade and Bernake are intentionally
killing the economy. Soros even said so on the Drudge Report.
TICK TOCK, The collapse is just around the corner.

SpideyTerry commented:
Hmm, Obama morphed into someone with no real-world accomplishments and (according to Super Dickery) can be real self-centered dick.? Wasn’t he always that?
Of course, at least Superman has the excuse of being a fictional character. Boy, y’know, the left has been hit bad when they have to resort to this. They’ve gone from comparing Obama to Lincoln or JFK to someone that doesn’t really exist… and yet is still more qualified to be president.
By the by, folks like Borger might want to stay away from mentioning Clark Kent. Kent’s a fictional character, but he’s still a more competent member of the MSM than Obama’s water carriers.
“No, Obama has morphed into Mr. Bean. Waving is exactly what Mr. Bean would do.”
Except if Mr. Bean did it, I’d be laughing. Here? I’m just shaking my head at how a moron holds the highest office in the land.
AuntieMadder commented:
Hell. He hasn’t even morphed into Clark Kent yet.
Retro commented:
they just ask the question “who is the biggest dumbass in the room” and bo throws up his hand
