Let’s see. Chairman Zero vs. Packers/Saints.

Death by hanging or death by firing squad. Netflix for me.

In other words, all those trial balloons regarding what he “might” say were met with a “not more of this crap” response.

According to Politico, Obama will also challenge the 12-member “congressional supercommittee” during Thursday’s speech to exceed their $1.5 trillion budget savings goal, but won’t present his own promised “very specific” deficit recommendations until afterward

"Leading from behind, again!" obamma is dismal failure as a president! I would rather have Carter any day over this spineless president.

Given that the WH has already announced that unemployment will remain high for some years to come, Obama could save everyone a lot of time if his "speech" consisted of saying this: "I got nothin'!"

It would be the first honest word (or words) out of his mouth! EVER!!!

Obama will “pivot” to jobs. Just wait. Any day now. After he’s done regulating the economy out of existence.

Synopsis of Obama speech: Jobs good. I’m for jobs.

Aides say Thursday’s speech will be part of a bigger plan the White House will roll out throughout the fall with the president hitting the road for speeches and town hall appearances.

Well finally the truth begins to rear it's ugly head now that it's no longer avoidable! I would downplay the speeches as well.

The reality of this is that these speeches are nothing more than a "Keep My Job" plan.

He should turn this all around. Obama has created un-jobs. All he has to do is get the labor department to define being unemployed as a job. Problem solved. He could appeal to all who aspire to get paid for doing nothing - most of the core Dumbocrats. Sure beats working. I’m sure the media will go along. After all, the left has redefined marriage. Why not employment?

Sarah Palin gets better with every speech.

Barack Obama gets worse with every speech. In fact, he looks and sounds like a second term Lame Duck and he is only three years in.

Of course Obama knows that the Useful Idiots still blame everybody but him for the Economy. That's why he is taking the blame Congress for everything route.

That will be the entire theme of his so called speech, with Obama looking like he is lecturing those Evil Republicans and Tea Party folks sitting there listening to him in the Chamber.

I think he will get his lowest ratings ever, at least I hope so. I need a good laugh.

This is more of a rallying cry to his faithful followers (the MSM) than anything else

A whole new set of talking points for them to spin nightly

It will be meaningless pablum spoken by Obama to the people but the nectar of the gods to his sycophants in the media

potential infrastructure projects

Means infrastructure spending

Which means more taxes.

Sounds like they are downplaying the speech because they already know it is going to be a big goose egg.

My guess is that while Barry was vacationing he had some lefty, Harvard educated domestic engineers cooking up a costly new union government jobs plan that provides no public benefit as usual. Barry does not have ideas as such, he’s just a connoisseur of whatever lefty currently is in vogue with the editorial boards of lefty publications. He likes simple ideas without figuring in the unintended consequences of the rube goldberg machinations in the details. No one is buying it anymore.

In order for this to be the greatest speech of all time that will move mountains, cause church bells to ring spontaneously, make lions lay down with lambs, and save Obama’s sorry ass, they’re going to have to lower expectations a little.

Plans for anything other than parries and vacations are not some thing that this POTUS will ever state as when asked he will only say “PRESENT”.
