"I'd rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president," he told ABC's "World News" anchor Diane Sawyer in an exclusive interview today.

That what's called an oxymoron. Good Presidents serve two (or more terms). Bad Presidents get turfed from office at the electorate's first opportunity.

Of course, I'm thinking like an American, and not a far-left ideologue. Joe Klein's comments about a nation full of dodos are a case in point--the far left are elitist (and fascist) by nature. Any disagreement is always perceived as proof of evil intent or mental retardation. Members of the Tea Party movement are renamed 'tea-baggers', accused of latent racism and low IQ. Fox News is not a 'real' news organization. Rush Limbaugh should die a horrible, painful death.

We used to call this Bush derangement syndrome, but the reality is dawning on all of us--the left is just plain deranged--period. In Barack Obama the paranoia is catalyzed with an intense narcissism.

With this in mind, consider that Barack Obama is the only one who gets to define what 'good' is in the context of his Presidency. We--the benighted masses, are resisting what Obama's superior intellect has determined is necessary for our continued well-being, and thus like children, need to be physically restrained, lied to and mollified, while the bitter medicine is forced down our throats.

If we hate him in the process--sobeit. He is not our friend, he is our father.

...but I'll take him up on the one-term bit...
