I agree. However, perhaps it is the attempt of the media to paint him as such by giving him a free pass and slamming people like Clinton to the wal over a clear mistake about something like Bosnia and the billets. So she made a mistake - big deal. I agree they should have called her on it. But, they acted like she killed and ate her first born. Yet, Obama never got or gets that kind of scrutiny. It is all part and parcel of the same image of him the press and he portrays of him that rubs me the wrong way.
