Oh, the Irony

According the War Room, the White House thinks Sen. Barack Obama wouldn't cut it as president.

A "senior official" in the White House of George W. Bush tells journalist Bill Sammon why Barack Obama won't be the next president of the United States: Obama is intellectually "capable" of the job, the official says, but he relies too much on easy charm. "It's sort of like, 'That's all I need to get by,' which bespeaks sort of a condescending attitude towards the voters ... and a laziness, an intellectual laziness."

I admire the "senior official" for getting through that without laughing. I know I couldn't.
