I bet he sure does. Unintentional humor is sometimes the best kind.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nWhat seems like a lifetime ago during the 2008 election run, I named him <b>Macho Bambi<\/b> and posted a <a href=\"http:\/\/archive.redstate.com\/blogs\/e_pluribus_unum\/2008\/may\/20\/hey_girlie_man_come_get_you_some\">number<\/a> of <a href=\"http:\/\/archive.redstate.com\/blogs\/e_pluribus_unum\/2008\/jun\/30\/my_name_is_troy_aikman\">pieces<\/a> over at the Cemetery hoping that clever tag would catch on.  Alas, no&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>All politics and ideologies aside, everybody knows who is really a tough guy and who just talks it up trying to be tough. Hollywood used to have a pretty good nose for putting tough dudes in tough roles, but nowadays they miss more than they hit. John Wayne &#8211; tough. LBJ &#8211; tough. Robert DeNiro &#8211; tough. Allen West &#8211; tough. Rahm Emanuel &#8211; tough. Can&#8217;t run a city, but I wouldn&#8217;t really look forward to going behind the school for a personal tete-a-tete with him either.<\/p>\n<p>Harry Reid &#8211; not tough. Ben Affleck &#8211; not tough. Jon Stewart &#8211; not tough. John Kerry &#8211; not tough. And barack obama&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; oh, don&#8217;t make me laugh again.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, he loves to talk it up, loves to swagger, but it&#8217;s really just a shell. Everybody who was ever street, or who ever had to earn anything the hard way knows. He&#8217;s never actually earned anything, any status. He&#8217;s been handed everything on a silver platter, and it shows. Thus the name, Macho Bambi. Like most punks who can&#8217;t back it up on the street, there&#8217;s a level, deep down inside, where he knows it.  I think that&#8217;s why he and his enablers work so hard to make him look tough.  Remember &#8220;gutsy call&#8221;; also note how bitterly he hates Paul Ryan, who bested him at the Econ Summit and who would easily take him down on the mat as well.<\/p>\n<p>Also remember this&#8230;..<br \/>\n.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.unifiedpatriots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/obama-pitch.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"All-Star Baseball\" width=\"240\" height=\"269\" \/><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>So&#8230; about that basketball. Yeah. I bet he plays basketball just like he leads the country. No results; can&#8217;t defend; whines over every non-call when he gets roughed up in the lane; can&#8217;t shoot; takes credit for the hard work of others; can&#8217;t be taught anything; and blames somebody else for everything he can&#8217;t do. <\/p>\n<p>Got it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some headlines make you just laugh out loud, like this suffocating puff piece on the CNN Politics website titled &#8220;Reggie Love: Obama leads like he plays&#8221;.
