"I think he's out of touch with what he needs to do," Schoen said. "I don't think he needs another speech. I don't think it's a question of oration. I think it's a question of the bill, the agreement, showing presidential leadership in getting the Democrats and Republicans in Congress, and their leadership, to the White House to hammer out an agreement that works in the interest of the American people."
White House officials say Obama will be more specific about what he wants. But, they caution, he won't be too specific. They cannot say, for example, if Obama will rule out the government-funded entry into private insurance known as the public option.

Time for the Hollyweirdoes to dig out the Greek columns and smoke machines again. Their beloved Obammie is in trouble.
People don’t want a bowling ball tied to their ankle in the middle of the ocean.
But when they protest this, they are called ignorent, hate-filled racists.
When they keep protesting, the Leftists, say, okay -
- we’ll use a bungy cord.
Too bloomin’ late, Barry.
No one is even going to watch it, let alone believe a word of it.
The oratorical magic has evaporated. His ability to sway millions with his sonorous majesty has died from overuse and abuse. In part thanks to YouTube, too many people know that he’ll happily tell whoppers with a straight face. He’s been caught too many times saying one thing to one audience and the the opposite to another.
“...White House officials say Obama will be more specific about what he wants. But, they caution, he won’t be too specific. They cannot say, for example, if Obama will rule out the government-funded entry into private insurance known as the public option...”
In other words, this speech will be full of nothing but graceful turns of phrase. More of the usual...
I predict he’ll end up embarrassing himself. Scratch that, we’ll be embarrassed for him, it’ll be cringe-worthy.
“...showing presidential leadership...”
Good luck with THAT, Skippy!
Major has been getting his barbs in a lot lately. Good. :)
The poor fool still thinks he’s the Hypno-Toad. He actually believes he has magical powers.
I agree. I think he is feeling comfortable. :)
Nothing but doublespeak comes out of Obama’s mouth. He’s utterly incapable of giving a direct answer.
“He actually believes he has magical powers.”
As in the “Magic Negro” from the LA Times via Rush.
“His ability to sway millions with his sonorous majesty has died from overuse and abuse.”
Yes....that.....and the fact that over time, by measuring what he SAYS against what he actually DOES or tries to do....TO THEM......Americans have come to the realization that nearly EVERYTHING that comes out of that man’s mouth is a LIE in some form, fashion or degree! He seems to be a walking generator of dissembling!
The Philadelphia race speech was a year and an era ago.
Obama was the fresh-faced tabula rasa, upon whom everyone was pinning their hopes and dreams. And whom the MSM was determined would lead us to the New Jerusalem.
A lot of sewage has passed under the bridge since then. This time, I imagine even the MSM will be calling it stale beer.
What Major has been saying and writing lately is turning out to be a PLEASANT surprise to me. Back during the campaign....especially around the ‘Rats’ Convention, I got the impression that Major Garrett was rather impressed with Hussein........along with Carl Cameron, Shepard Smith, et al.
He cannot lead because he has no skills.
He is but a one trick teleprompter reading pony.
this bill is BS and it is dead.
I don’t think it is dead. There can be a half-way bill that can hurt us more than help us. And they can add the public option later.
Pretty good analysis: words in print can't lie like a politician, they say what they say. Also, he jobbed Health Care to Pelosi and got a non-partisan bill- big mistake (among others) which I wanted to contribute: if he flops on the pubic option (as he has) imagine this dweeb dealing with a national crisis where he'd have to stand firm?
The guy is so unequipped to 'lead' this, or any country it's disgusting. In fact, this type of leadership is best suited for a country like Kenya. ET (extra telepromter) call home.
Reminds me of one of my husband’s favorite jokes: a guy wearing a brown suit with a gray bowling ball tied to each shoe walks into a Leftist Halloween party and gets kicked out for not wearing a costume.
Maybe race-baiter/huckster Henry Gates will f__kup with another racial incident distorted and blown out of proportion, and create another teachable moment for 0bozo to close his infomercial with. What a frikkin idiot 0bozo!!!
