Obama Biographer -- "The World Seems to Disappoint Him"

From Ace of Spades HQ:
No points awarded for novelty or perspicacity, as this observation has been made from distances of up to 2500 miles (I'm sure the Kremlin has detected this). David Remnick, who wrote that fawning interview/profile in the New Yorker, got to talk to Obama for hours, so it's no great feat of psychological diagnosis to realize the President is deeply, deeply disappointed in all of you.

But I guess at least now that a progressive says it, it is no longer strictly Konservative Krazytalk Konspiraciatin'.
"The profile [of President Obama] that I published in the New Yorker was somebody that eerily, eerily seemed to be claiming himself--it was a sense of not giving up, but of deep frustration--that was the profile that I published in the New Yorker. Somebody frustrated and disappointed," said Remnick, who has proven to be deeply sympathetic to this president. "And that's what's frustrating to me sometimes about Obama is that the world seems to disappoint him," he continued to laughter from others on the TV set. "Republicans disappoint him, Bashar al-Assad disappoints him, Putin as well. And the fighting spirit sometimes is lacking in the performative aspects of the presidency."
The only thing the Dear Leader is disappointed by is the World does not bow before him and worship him.
