Too bad for Oboma. Rush is on. It's a matter of priority.

Notice that he said he has kept in close contact with Congress, i.e., Mr. McConnell, Mr. Boehner, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid. Such respect!!!

We can’t keep running the government on two week extensions.

That’s irresponsible.

Incredible!!!!!! What LIES, what twisting, what spin, what sleight-of-hand, what arrogance!

Folks, this is why he's going to be hard to beat next election. Voters not educated like we are buy his snake-oil-manship hook, line and sinker. He's getting better every day at plying his trade....which is evilness.

He had several outright degrading insults to citizens in his pitch....but the liberal masochists eat this up. He's going into total control phase in his speeches through various psychological tools....watch for it.

I need a shower.

“Let me be clear, the bottom line is, I don’t take those decisions lightly and we have moved swiftly in the interest of the people of the United States what I have inherited and taken very seriously. Let me repeat that, I and my administration have taken risks and considered them and are drilling the most oil ever but let’s not forget that that oil was in an oil spill and will take fifty or a hundred and fifty years to come to market. Let me repeat that. As I said, it’s important to remember what I have inherited and sent a clear message. Let me be clear about that - our future prospects are for the interest of the American people who have spoken and the bottom line is these problems will not be easy to solve. Our options are on the table and we remain focused on the American people and the problems we inherited and let me be clear...”

Well we might see a return, or private developers and manufacturers might - but not while the gummint is in there subsidizing them. Drop the subsidies, let the market decide. That’s why iPads are winning and Palm is losing, and countless other examples all around us. If the gummint had picked Palm to be the winning technology and propped it up artificially, where would things be? The only way for green tech to be a sustainable part of the solution is for it to create value on it’s own merit, no different than anything else. And the incentives of the free market are the only things that have been proven time after time to drive the investment in research and development that can turn new ideas into profitable and sustainable solutions.

"He actually said:

I wish he would talk more on the Tsunami Warnings!

I mean if he is going to spew that much "Bull S***" I figure there must be Tsunami Warnings all up and down the east coast as a result of such

Nobody is trying to reduce expenses in Washington. Someone needs to ask him if there was actually $60 billion in cuts how many days of federal expenditures that equals to. Since I have never seen his college transcripts so I’m unsure if Obama can do math so could someone tell him $60 billion is about 36 hours of spending?

Note that he has no plans. He has no ideas. He is all woulda, gonna, shoulda with nothing behind anything.

He is BABBLING!!!!!

He is spouting statistics purporting to show how domestic oil production has increased . . .

It is due to price. Econ 101 - when price increases, so does supply. In North Dakota, they are pumping oil as fast as they can right now because they can sell it for $100/bbl. When oil was at $50/bbl, pumping oil simply was not profitable for them.

So he's drawing the line on Pell grants and head start. What a bold move!
