There were times during a Thursday rally Barack Obama couldn’t help but talk about himself, even though he was supposed to be talking about other people.
There were other times he could barely talk at all.
During the Cleveland rally for Rich Cordray and Betty Sutton, Obama repeatedly talked about himself, despite the candidates sitting behind him.
Several times, he stuttered as he attempted to attack President Trump and the success of recent Republican initiatives.

Proving once again what an egotist Trump is. Oh, wait...
The poor misguided people in the USA elected one of the most pitiful beings, the Kenyan to act as president. It will go down in history to all who have an I Q larger than their shoe size as a period of shame for this act
I read recently that approximately 10-15% of the usa is now populated with “humans” having an IQ of less than 83. Which basically means they can be taught nothing....even the military will not take them into the lowest of all jobs...suppose they do get hire by the fed gov though....
Certainly though we know they vote...look at 2008 and 2012.
I’ll never forget Soetoro talking to a 4th grade (?) or fifth grade class using a prompter, podium w/Presidential seal AND A microphone in his hand. And he was president. Poor, poor thing, still needs all that to make himself feel relevant.
We’re so lucky, now, to have a real MAN as our Commander in Chief.
...but Trump is the one who cant speak, huh?
obama can READ someone elses cue cards, but hes an AWFUL speaker.
You couldn't even beat J. Fred Muggs at Jeopardy, or Zippy the Chimp.
Could you imagine him playing "Wheel of Fortune?"
Obama: Can I buy a vowel Pat? Can I buy an "I"?
Pat Sajek: Oops, sorry Barry...you've already bought it, and tried to buy it 10 more times. Pick another vowel if you can think of one."
OBAMA COMEBACK SPEECH: “.......we don’t threaten the freedom of the press because they say things or publish stories we don’t like.
I complained plenty about Fox News, but you never heard me call them enemies of the people.”
— rally Friday at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
REALITY CHECK Obama bragged, he never called Fox “enemies of state.” No, he didnt ....he just unleashed the full force of the DOJ, in the person of AG Eric Holder to pounce on Fox reporter James Rosen
AND to intimidate Rosen’s family.
Holder and Obama issued a court order for Fox News reporter James Rosen’s emails labeling Rosen a criminal “co-conspirator.”
theguardian.com Circa 2013
The Justice Department did more than seize a Fox News reporter’s emails while suggesting he was a criminal “co-conspirator” in a leak case — it did so under one of the most serious wartime laws in America, the Espionage Act. It is now well known that the Obama justice department has prosecuted more government leakers under the 1917 Espionage Act than all prior administrations combined - in fact, double the number of all such prior prosecutions. But as last week’s controversy over the Obama DOJ’s pursuit of the phone records of AP reporters illustrated, this obsessive fixation in defense of secrecy also targets, and severely damages, journalists specifically and the news-gathering process in general.
New revelations emerged yesterday in the Washington Post that are perhaps the most extreme yet when it comes to the DOJ’s attacks on press freedoms. It involves the prosecution of State Department adviser Stephen Kim, a naturalized citizen from South Korea who was indicted in 2009 for allegedly telling Fox News’ chief Washington correspondent, James Rosen, that US intelligence believed North Korea would respond to additional UN sanctions with more nuclear tests - something Rosen then reported. Kim did not obtain unauthorized access to classified information, nor steal documents, nor sell secrets, nor pass them to an enemy of the US. Instead, the DOJ alleges that he merely communicated this innocuous information to a journalist - something done every day in Washington - and, for that, this arms expert and long-time government employee faces more than a decade in prison for “espionage”.
The focus of the Post’s report yesterday is that the DOJ’s surveillance of Rosen, the reporter, extended far beyond even what they did to AP reporters. The FBI tracked Rosen’s movements in and out of the State Department, traced the timing of his calls, and - most amazingly - obtained a search warrant to read two days worth of his emails, as well as all of his emails with Kim. In this case, said the Post, “investigators did more than obtain telephone records of a working journalist suspected of receiving the secret material.” It added that “court documents in the Kim case reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist”.
But what makes this revelation particularly disturbing is that Obama’s DOJ, in order to get this search warrant, insisted that Fox’s Rosen - a journalist - committed serious crimes. The DOJ specifically argued that by encouraging his source to disclose classified information - something investigative journalists do every day - Rosen himself broke the law. Describing an affidavit from FBI agent Reginald Reyes filed by the DOJ, the Post reports [emphasis added]:
“Reyes wrote that there was evidence Rosen had broken the law, ‘at the very least, either as an aider, abettor and/or co-conspirator’. That fact distinguishes his case from the probe of the AP, in which the news organization is not the likely target. Using italics for emphasis, Reyes explained how Rosen allegedly used a ‘covert communications plan’ and quoted from an e-mail exchange between Rosen and Kim that seems to describe a secret system for passing along information. . . .
However, it remains an open question whether it’s ever illegal, given the First Amendment’s protection of press freedom, for a reporter to solicit information.
No reporter, including Rosen, has been prosecuted for doing so.” Under US law, it is not illegal to publish classified information. That fact, along with the First Amendment’s guarantee of press freedoms, is what has prevented the US government from ever prosecuting journalists for reporting on what the US government does in secret. This newfound theory of the Obama DOJ - that a journalist can be guilty of crimes for “soliciting” the disclosure of classified information - is a means for circumventing those safeguards and criminalizing the act of investigative journalism itself.
These latest revelations show that this is not just a theory but one put into practice, as the Obama DOJ submitted court documents accusing a journalist of committing crimes by doing this.—SNIP—

The biggest fraud in American history
Obama repeatedly stutters, talks about himself
He’s been doing that for years. Some say smoking the funny cigs does that to people
And he has a very annoying speech impediment whereby he whistles when he says his “S’s”. Big-time tool.
Has there ever been a time when he could talk about anything else?
Well; they could be twins. Obozo and the dark one that is.

If there was ever a public figure that richly deserved ridicule it is Barack Obama.
Obama remembers all the excitement of the 2008 campaign, where every other day, at least one woman would ‘pass out cold’ from the sheer thrill of hearing him speak in person.
Goof times! Axelrod made sure all those women got their paychecks from the DNC for ‘services rendered.’
But we were assured in 2008 that he was eloquent and a rhetorician.
Dude can’t speak without a hand up his rump and a teleprompter.
He looks like crap. I think they know what’s going to come out and they’re scared as hell about exposure. Hence the full court press to do ANYTHING to win back the house and obstruct said exposure.
