Obama and the online Town Hall
bbc ^ | 3/26/09 | Darren Waters

As I write, President Barack Obama is engaged in an online town hall meeting.

He's speaking in front of a live audience, while the meeting is also broadcast on the net, and on some TV channels.

He's answering questions from the invited audience, and also responding to questions put to him online.

As I look now, 92,000 people have left more than 100,000 questions on the subject of the economy alone.

Many Americans aren’t inpressed with All-Obama-All-The-Time either. I am getting pretty sick of looking at this insipid face. He voice goes right through me (and not in a good way).

Rush was just saying “it won’t be long before there is an obama channel” for 24/7 nobama. Also this Smart house controller he’s touting could be used to make everyone’s TV go to Nobama Channel anytime the HNIC was in your face DAILY.

Actually, I'm afraid Obama will respond, “You're right”, which means spend more money!

Dog and Pony Show.

He’s just as good Mao or Lenin at this.

Be afraid. Be very afraid because this guy is a dictator and our congress is sitting there with their collective thumbs up their collective behinds.

What did he promise them?

It’s a forum where all the answers can be written for the President ahead of time.

All we know for sure is that he can read.
