17 times. I was thinking of pumping out the septic tank at that time. The stench will remind me of what Obama consists of.

He’ll reference himself only slightly more than he says “the failed policies of the past 8 years.”

Supposed to be a 15 minute speech. I’ll go with 31.

"Okay, 25 minute speech? 75 times. "
Do we start drinking at 50 or 60?

I caught some of his talk to the troops this afternoon..it was pathetic, a really bad job..he was almost inarticulate..of course, the teleprompter wasn't there to tell him what to say, and the applause was, at best, tepid at the end..
he had one interesting, nay..weird line..."for as long as I'm president, I'll always appreciate the sacrifice of our brave troops

All right...if it’s just the pronoun “I,” then I’ll guess 47 times.
Include “me,” “my” and “mine” and I’ll say 180.

I won’t be watching since I already know that it’s useless to expect anything different or of any value to come out of his mouth.
Besides, I’m pretty sure that there will be something much more important to watch on TV tonight, such as... hmmm?... the Kardashians? or... Hanna Montana?... or... baseball?... hmmm, I’ll have to check what time the Rays are on.

Oh yeah, forgot about that one.
Who writes his speeches anyway?
