""Kevin Chappell. Hi, Kevin.

QUESTION: Thank you, Mr. President. A recent report found that as a result of the economic downturn, one in 50 children are now homeless in America. With shelters at full capacity, tent cities are sprouting up across the country.

In passing your stimulus package, you said that help was on the way, but what would you say to these families, especially children, who are sleeping under bridges and in tents across the country?

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, the first thing I’d say is that I’m heartbroken that any child in America is homeless.""

Kevin Chappell of Ebony magazine claims that 2% of American children are homeless and that tent cities are springing up across America.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Yeah, and 13 kids a day also die from gun violence.

More damned lies from the Left.

[Veto!]

Here’s the transcript:

“Now....”
“Aaannnddd....”
“Duh”
“Hum”
“Um”
“Hmm”
“Mmmm”
“Nnnnn”
“Unnnn”

It may sound repetitious to critics, but really, he’s brilliantly nuanced.

It took many years and many failures to lead us here.

Many years? How about 2 years in particular, you know, since the 2006 takeover by Rats?

"MY PURPOSE TONIGHT AHHH...IS TO SHOW THE WORLD UGHHHH... THAT I DONT NEED A TELEPROMPTER RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME AHHH....TO SOUND LIKE I KNOW WHAT IM SAYING...

....I WILL USE THE TELEPROMPTER POSITIONED IN THE REAR OF THE ROOM AND ASK FOR SOFT BALL QUESTIONS FROM PREAPPROVED REPORTERS"

[Cicero]

I couldn’t get myself to read it very closely, it’s so banal and meaningless. A lot of empty, meaningless talk.

Once again, it seems to have been pre-planned. He has a list of names, and he calls them in that order. I’m not sure if any of the questions took him by surprise. Maybe the one about why he wants to fund fetal stem cell research when adult stem cell research has been much more promising. That seems to have taken him aback.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, the first thing I’d say is that I’m heartbroken that any child in America is homeless.””

---

Yet he wasn't heartbroken when he signed the bill that kicked some poor DC girls out of his daughters’ private school. Imagine if W. Bush had signed such a bill. The poor DC girls would be on every TV show, and the networks would also show the difference between Sidwell Friends’ and whatever DC public school the young DC ladies now have to go back to for their education.

No nation has ever taxed itself into prosperity.

Question(Ann Compton, ABC): Yours is a rather historic presidency, and I’m just wondering whether in any of the policy debates that you’ve had within the White House, the issue of race has come up, or whether it has in the way you feel you’ve been perceived by other leaders or by the American people. Or have the last 64 days been a relatively color- blind time?

I'm glad we can at least count on ABC News to seek the really crucial answers to the tough questions on all Americans' minds during these troubled times.

[OKIEDOC]

Every time Obama answered a reporter he looked down at the dais as though he was reading a response.

[Son House]

Øbama “we will recover”

.
You mean white folks greed, will once again run a world in need?
