It became tasteless after the teleprompter joke.
IT’S ALL ABOUT HIM....WHAT ARROGANCE!
Ditto!
Notice no self-deprecating humor. Just mean-spirited jibes at opponents
You must be watching a different speech than I am. He finds himself too funny.
Still no mention of Roxane Saberi, Euna Lee and Laura Ling.
Journalists as pawns.
Now, he’s weeping about journalists out of work. And the newspapers that have written themselves out of business with their liberal bias.
He can so bite me.
Sorry you guys are all losing your jobs
Building the case for a media bail out.....
Frankly, I thought TOTUS was smarter than that.
He’s throwing a bone to those who drool over him!
OMG - now he’s practically fellating the whole press corps.
This is the biggest joke ever.
TOTUS is a loser
The truth is an “approximation”?!
or something like that
Go home Obama! You suck!
His arrogance knows no bounds. Pathetic jokes and those off colored remarks are certainly not appropriate for the teens in the audience.
Lighten up. It’s the Dems that usually are so uptight. Take the ideology blinders off. It’s the weekend.
Playing up to his slobbering media!
It was very mediocre performance! He’s no George W. Bush!
“And I really hope I can get your heads out of my ass. It’s getting real uncomfortable”.
