‘Unscreened’ Town Hall . . . Or Jonas Brothers Concert?
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

“Obama’s Unscreened Town Hall Audience Is Clean Break From Bush’s Supporters-Only Public Events” — headline, liberal “Think Progress” website

No Republicans in Orange County? Guess not. What used to be the most Republican of strongholds in California sounded more like a one-man Jonas Brothers concert when Pres. Obama staged a supposed “town hall” today. View—no—listen to the clip I’ve edited of the crowd reaction. Not only did they cheer like a bunch of giddy 12-year old girls. At one point they broke into an “O-BA-MA!” chant. When’s the last time you heard that at a “town hall”?

Cheering, chanting, standing-Os and shouts of “I love you!” And don’t miss the moment when, informing the crowd that he’s taking his jacket off, Pres. Obama announces “I’m hot.” Crowd goes wild. Oh, and did I mention there was not one tough question? First question: will you run for a second term? Tough stuff! Go ahead, Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, Robert Gibbs. Tell us this was crowd was unscreened.

I don’t think they play their own music live.

“Note: some of the biggest screams of approval came whenever Pres. Obama talked about spending more on education. Think some teacher-union members might have been bussed in?”

Rome burns and Obama holds more revival meetings. He won, get used to it.

Obambi’s PR junkets and appearance on Leno are nothing more than opportunities to try and defend the indefensible Obambi policies and to try and raise his sagging approval numbers.

People reportedly waited in line for 12 hours to get tickets. Republicans can’t do that because they have JOBS.
