Look for Washington types such as Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va., House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and Richard Holbrooke, the U.S. special envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Party crashers were not welcome. After Tareq and Michaele Salahi got through White House gates without invitations to a state dinner, guests had to bring a dinner ticket or printed invitation to attend dinner pre-parties at the Washington Hilton Hotel. Organizers said they were trying to cut down on crowds.

RaceBannon just posted this over on another thread.

Seems the Pres ordered a blackout .. was that because he was the star of TV tonight .. and he didn’t want this story to out-star him ..??

[mojo114]

He is flailing about now, searching.. what a mess.

[sybilll]

The audience agrees. This stinks on ice.

LOL. Sucking-up to his beard, Michelle.

Couldn’t have anything to do with the news, could it?

LOL.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

LOL! Oh, please let him bomb.

[keepitreal]

I’m cringing

[kristinn]

Yes, this is bad. The Politico jokes, with graphics, are flat.

[The Cajun]

This is really BAD.

Not only bad, but from the pictures, a lot of ugly mixed in for good measures.

“Obama is All Alinsky all of the time” - Sarah

[ejdrapes]

They're not really laughing. It's actually quite embarrassing. Jokes aren't funny, timing is way off.

[TornadoAlley3]

This bad, real bad.

Donatella Versace. Born, 2 May 1955 (1955-05-02) Tomorrow she is 55.

She's had so much plastic she is actually grotesque.

[Irish Eyes]

This is really bad. The Politico slam really fell flat. He is really laying one tonight.

[kabar]

It is all about him and attacking his opponents. Mean spirited guy who has a hard time making fun of himself.

[STARWISE]

Speechwriter Jon Favreau was reportedly
the source of tonight’s boring and
me me me speech, per usual.

[onyx]

Are they paid? I think they just love to suck-up to him.

Sycophants, all.

[keepitreal]

And he’s just plain mean to everyone. Makes people uncomfortable.

[advertising guy]

this boy cannot hide his anger ever
