Peter Wehner: "I have written before about Obama’s deep, almost desperate, need to portray himself as the
opposite of what he is, to conceive of himself in a way that is at odds
with reality. We have seen it in all sorts of areas, including claiming
himself to be a voice of civility, portraying himself as a champion of
bi-partisanship, lecturing others about profligate spending, and saying
he is the only responsible “adult” in Washington. Now we see this
habit in a new arena – this time, the president as Obama the Stoic, a
man so committed to “pressing on” for the cause of social justice he
just doesn’t have time to feel sorry for himself. Indeed, he has now
decided to sermonize to others not to complain, not to grumble, and to
“stop crying.”
This is akin to John Edwards hosting a weekend seminar on the importance of marital fidelity."
