Please read your headline again.

And again I ask. Do you mean that you haven't seen a post state this?

It is not my comprehension that is off. You now feel you must defend a silly error on your part in not understanding my post. Blather away.

You headlined about paul saying Obama is not a king. I said that others on DU say that frequently. You bombasted. Then you duck the fact that your headline was an inadvertent spoof of a frequent apologist argument for Obama's lackluster progressive performance.


If anyone is saying what the headline says, then they believe Obama is acting like a king.


In your previous post you stated: "The appear regularly when progressives fume that Obama hasn't done something they feel a progressive president should. It usually takes just the form you presented. The excuse is that the president is only president and not a king or dictator."

Stating that Obama is not a king because he does not have the powers of a king is not the same as believing he's acting like one.
