two nights ago, The One spoke at the democratic national committee fundraiser in washington dc. and though now he says his attention is on job creation (how many trillion dollars spent and lost jobs later??) he said that healthcare reform was still something he is fighting for. in the next breath he told about a letter he received from a woman, a campaign worker, who was suffering from breast cancer and later died:

I got a letter — I got a note today from one of my staff — they forwarded it to me — from a woman in St. Louis who had been part of our campaign, very active, who had passed away from breast cancer. She didn’t have insurance. She couldn’t afford it, so she had put off having the kind of exams that she needed. And she had fought a tough battle for four years. All through the campaign she was fighting it, but finally she succumbed to it. And she insisted she’s going to be buried in an Obama t-shirt.

i have nothing to say about the woman’s wishes to be buried in the t-shirt. people do all kinds of things as is her right — its not about her or that.

but obama…

what a lovely, lovely self-serving anecdote at a fundraiser. is there no end to this man’s narcissism? or nothing off-bounds? must everything revolve around him and his bulbous, well-fed ego?

update: i didn’t see that hotair has something on this including the video. go check it out.
