George Will* has a scathing column about President Obama’s recent pitch to the Olympic Committee re his beloved Chicago, sneeringly accusing the President of being a narcissist. Since Obama is relatively new to DC, he may not be too familiar with Willspeak, so allow me to deconstruct.
See, Mr. President, you may be the President (and in fact you are the President), but George Will is the Pope, and His Holiness does not suffer equals lightly. There is room for only one super ego in Washington, and that super ego is George Will’s. So take it down a notch, dude. Believe me, you do not want to piss off George Will. Because if you piss off His Holiness, you’ll be drowning in urea.
*Or “George F. Will,” as the little twerp insists on styling himself. What does the “F” stand for, George? “Fantastic”?
