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."

Mark Levin made a VERY VERY VERY important point about Obama last night.

He said, does anyone notice tha Obama ONLY talks about the FUTURE to avoid having to face or answer to the reality of the present?

...or words to that effect.

Well there is a reason many call him zero! Hopefully they are beginning to wake up and realize that if he had acted 50 days ago by calling everyone from the rest of the world in to help we might be in a better place right now.

Frank Luntz’s focus group spanked Barry tonight except for one young black girl who said it was all Bush’s fault...and they all laughed in her face.

I'm not too much on ‘citrus’, do not like Margaritas at all.
I like bourbon and coke or Malibu and coke.

But I'll ‘clink’ glasses with you, lol. Cheers!

He could lower sea levels. But he can’t stop this leak. And worse, perhaps no one else can either ?

Only poor Juan Williams and Alan Colmes were whistling in the dark on FoxNews, still supporting Dear Reader and his pie-in-the-sky dreams.

He was slurring his words tonight. It was very odd. At one point, I expected him to just stop speaking and say “I’m sorry” to us all, then walk away.

O’Reilly started grilling Sarah Palin over what she would do.

I never watch him anymore, but he was on after the latest reading from Dear Reader. I do give O’Reilly credit for pushing Alan Colmes to an on-air, arm-flailing implosion.

I don’t think having the flag behind him is even going to help him.

"Taping from the Oval office was great!
I think this was my best speech ever!
What do you all think?"

“I have enjoyed watching this video....of course tomorrow they will do a complete flip, but to watch their first reaction is priceless!”

A flip, yes, but maybe not a complete one. Let’s face it, people don’t like losers, and Obama is looking more like a loser everyday. Ultimately the true believers will rally around him, but the enthusiasm is waning. Very sweet to see!
