Depression strikes White House

Drudge is running a subheadline about a study that one in ten Americans suffer from depression. So it stands to reason statistically that President Obama would be one of them (Washington Insider link);

So you state that President Obama is depressed? How did you come by this information? From a direct source still working within the White House on a daily basis. As I had stated previously, tensions at the White House have reached a critical stage. The infighting among staff is off the charts. More recently, the president has increasingly withdrawn emotionally from the day to day demands of his job – he has become what was described to me as “empty”.

I don’t know if it’s true or not, nor do I care very much, I just thought it was strange that right before the election we discover that our president might be mentally unstable. Given the climate, I suppose we should feel sorry for him and vote for Democrats so he doesn’t collapse.

The elections shouldn’t be the only thing he’s depressed about, though. It’s things like this which should depress him;

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad assured his Iranian counterpart Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Saturday that their ties were solid — a view unlikely to please Washington which is working to isolate the Islamic state.

“We have stood beside Iran in a brotherly way from the very beginning of the (Iranian Islamic) revolution,” Assad said during a one-day visit to Tehran.

It turns out that for all of that blather about “smart diplomacy” was just so much hooey. That would depress me, too, if I was wrong about about every single policy. That’s what you get with Joe Bite-Me…bad advice and mental illness.

Thanks to Mr Wolf for the link to the “depression in the White House” link.
