"If I perceive that people are taking advantage.....I will CRUSH Them."- The President
Talking about his demeanor and his approach, Barack Obama says...

"I don't like people trying to take advantage of that,
so if I get any sense that people are....

this is why actually if you watch my political interactions,
I'm always best as a counterpuncher.

You know, if someone comes at me, I will Knock them out,
if not, than I will try to understand their point of view....
and that actually serves me well.....I give people the benefit of the doubt, I try to understand their point of view....

but IF I perceive that they are trying to take advantage of that, I will Crush them." - Barack Obama, 2007

... "I'm not a player I just crush a lot."

Granted, I was talking about a different KIND of crush. :)

ETA: Oh ... NOW I see the laugh he delivered that line with .... I thought that sounded uncharacteristically cocky. lol

25. YUCK! The Freepers use that nickname, and Barry too.
Makes me want to hurl Bloo. Still, not much we can do about it, for some reason he is not "pure" enough for some.

He'll be the one to extend a hand to help bridge the gulf -- but deceivers and backstabbers beware.

15. An iron fist in a velvet glove.
I think Pres Obama's Republic adversaries dismiss him at their own peril.

The next 4 years will be very exciting watching this man grow and watching him transform the country.
