Barry goes on and on, stuttering and spouting nonsense in his usual non tele prompter way.
He’s awful and refuses to allow Republicans to refute his garbage.
They’re trying to -he tells them to hold on .
He is just eating air time , saying the same old and now attacking Republicans.
He’s slurring his words -A Republic idea.
Maybe he needs something stronger than a smoke.
Republicans when allowed to have a couple of seconds of time, have made intelligent presentations.
He’s lecturing them, now.

It is laughable how Zero always avoids getting into a discussion when he is put on the spot (reconciliation, sweetheart deals). Goodness, he makes me want to spit nails.

“Well, yeah, but beware of the Media spin. Pravda lives.”

The MSM has already started:

Reuters

“Disagreements were not always expressed diplomatically.

Alexander challenged Obama’s claim that insurance premiums would fall under the Democratic legislation. “You’re wrong,” he said. Responded Obama: “I’m pretty certain I’m not wrong.””

Zero was about to interrupt him, but McCain told him to let him finish. McCain was pretty much just talking about how it’s unfair to citizens all around the country when certain areas (Louisiana, Nebraska) get special deals and the rest are left in the cold.

Yes, surprisingly enough, he was able to listen to someone else’s voice but his own for a couple more minutes.

McCain spoke about special Medicade waivers for Florida, the now defunct “cornhusker” deal, and the “Louisiana purchase.” Basically, uneven protection under the law.
He was specific, ardent. He reminded Obama of the promises of transparency during the campaign, and Obama has not followed through until now. McCain made reference to closed door discussions, backdoor deals, and painted those talks as
disingenous...not his word... And thankfully, McCain did not refer to the President as “My friend.” And made no offers reach across the aisle. He was fired up, and obviously angered by Obama’s flip obfuscations in response. Wish he'd been this fired during the election campaign!!!

Obama tried to cut him off, but McCain demanded to be allowed to finish. Finally,Obama cut in, as he did with all Repubs. But, McCain had made his points and made us proud.

For all that, I live in AZ, and McCain makes me crazy!

Obama to deliver health care The Chicago Way

John Kass

February 25, 2010

President Barack Obama will star in his very own televised entertainment spectacular on Thursday — let’s call it Federal Health Care Kabuki Theater.

The Republicans wanted to dance. Now they’ll have to step lightly. They were foolish to get trapped in his so-called summit on national health care. Or did they actually think they could outperform the skinny fellow from Chicago?

The president is taking this one last chance to push his health care agenda, which by his own estimate will cost about $1 trillion over 10 years. That’s money America doesn’t have, but he could probably just print some more.

Obama will be in his element, talking and lecturing, the law professor framing the debate. He’ll spend hours being seen as reasonable. The Republicans will balk and the president will shrug. He’ll sigh and say he tried to reason with them but they refused.

Then once the cameras are turned off, he’ll take out the baseball bat and explain how things get done The Chicago Way.

Today’s show should lay to rest the ridiculous notion that there isn’t any difference between Republicans and Democrats.
Republicans have been amazing and we should see more of the less well known Republicans more often .
Our bench is deep.
The Democrats and Barry have to drag out the sob stories of their family and constituents.
Barry bored with stories about his old jalopy and food inspectors.
The Republicans attempted to discuss policy.
Barry was his usual self aggrandizing narcissist , not saying anything of substance
( because he can’t ) and trying to reframe the issue to his advantage.
The Republicans brought legitimate points to the table and were shut down constantly by the dismissive and arrogant Barry .
The tact of the Democrats was to falsely promote the idea that they are all in basic agreement on the major issues .
And in every instance where the Republicans would attempt to explain that they were absolutely not in agreement-
Barry would shut them down with his gatling gun stuttering bah,bah,bah,bah,bah.
I expected the Republicans to be obsequious and weak , instead they have been strong and forceful and well versed on the subject.
Unfortunately, they are rarely granted the floor .
Today is Barry’s first campaign appearance of 2012 , the Republicans have been disrespectfully treated like foam Greek columns.
Despite that-they are the clear winners.
