Obama has had two sleepless nights since learning that Rush Limbaugh
praised his speech about Iraq and Syria this week, a White House source
confirmed on Saturday.
According to the source, who spoke on the condition of
anonymity, the President has been unable to sleep since Limbaugh
complimented him on the air and has been seen pacing back and forth in
the Oval Office in a way that aides described as “worrisome.”
“When he heard that [House Speaker John] Boehner and
[Senate Minority Leader Mitch] McConnell liked his speech, he seemed to
take that in stride,” the source said. “But this Limbaugh thing has
pushed him over the edge.”
After midnight on Friday, the source said, a member of
the White House cleaning staff entered the Oval Office and found
President Obama in his bathrobe and pajamas, staring at himself in a
mirror.
“What have I done?” the President reportedly said to himself.
