June 15, 2010 MSNBC Trashes Obama's Address: Compared To Carter, "I Don't Sense Executive Command"
Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann and Howard Fineman react to President Obama's Oval Office Address on the oil spill. Here are the highlights of what the trio said:
Matthews compared Obama to Carter.
Olbermann: "Nothing specific at all was said."
Matthews: "No direction."
Howard Fineman: "He wasn't specific enough."
Olbermann "I don't think he aimed low, I don't think he aimed at all. It's startling."
Howard Fineman: Obama should be acting like a "commander-in-chief."
Matthews: Ludicrous that he keeps saying [Secretary of Energy] Chu has a Nobel prize. "I'll barf if he does it one more time."
Matthews: "A lot of meritocracy, a lot of blue ribbon talk."
Matthews: "I don't sense executive command."

Amazing. George Stephanopolus and Dianne Sawyer were comparing him to FDR in their post speech blather.
To: i88schwartz
I’m glad they are mad, they can join the club.
What really struck me about this speech was we have a disaster the size and scope of this spill, and this IDIOT READ FROM A TELEPROMPTER THE ENTIRE ****ING TIME! This man cannot come up with an original thought when faced with a situation such as this!?!?! WTF are we gonna do, we are boned.

As Dildo David Gergan once mumbled, it's hard to talk while teabagging. I wonder what all these Obama teabaggers expected, besides empty words...

"Amazing. George Stephanopolus and Dianne Sawyer were comparing him to FDR in their post speech blather." Why, because they're both paralyzed?

The good news is that more and more people are finally coming to the conclusion that Obama does not know what he is doing. He complete lack of experience is showing. Only his diehard supporters including the dimoKKKRATS in South Carolina(Greene) will still support him.

Yep, I was surprised - they were seemingly aghast at the lack of specificity. Obama's way of voting present now that he's president.

I bet Gergan is none too happy tonight. I sure wouldn’t want to be the aide who has to brief Obama on the way his speech played. I hope he doesn’t kick BO (the dog).

Donna Brazile is doing likewise on CNN. I think this signals the beginning of Hilary's next campaign for president.

No, as long as he’s in front of a teleprompter, we can see what he’s up to. And that makes the nation safer.
