Frank Luntz's very vocal focus group reacts to President Obama's Oval Office address on the oil spill.

[ilgipper]

Obama has really flamed out. The thrill is gone. Starting with his press conference last summer on health care, it has turned into a total disaster for the Democrats. His speeches and press conferences are poor, and his push hard left combined with nonsensical leadership are driving people away in droves. Unbelievable to watch considering how memorized over half the country was just a short 16 months ago.

Whiney little bitch.

The only freaking thing in the history of this administration in which "who's paying for it?" is the priority question.

Plug the damn hole daddy, and then worry about who's paying for it. Keep the oil out there off the beaches. Address the problem at hand, jackass.

Besides, you'll just bail out BP after you bleed them dry anyway.

Uh...don’t you mean ‘mesmerized’ rather than ‘memorized’?

Quick! Get Carrie Fisher's opinion! She just said that he's so awesome, perfect and just sooooooooooooooooo dreamy!

He is reminding more and more of a little boy wearing daddy’s clothes. The job (clothes) just don’t fit.

Gotta watch this! A real rowdy bunch with a couple of Obamabots and most of the rest make some good points and generally pan his speech.

“just a short 16 months ago”

Correction: “just a looooooooooooooooong 16 months ago”

November can’t come too soon for me.

That guy in the front row supporting Obama looks like the Looter Dude

[bigbob]

true, but Luntz sure is wearing his bossy pants!

[llevrok]

some woman in Luntz' group said that the weak spill response was not Obama's fault as he does not have the respources.

What the? He's the #@!@! commander in chief! No resources or lack of will and skill?

I’m so negative on Obummer’s talkin’ at the nation, that I didn’t even watch it.

I’ll watch him when he leaves office.

Any count on the times he said “I” and “Me”, or “Notion” or “Clear” or “From Day One”...Etc.....

I TIVO’s the speech and found his body language VERY interesting. I FFW’d through the tape.....and noticed the ‘emphasis’ on certain words.....where he raised his right hand as a gesture of ‘strength’. Check it out if you can.

Dread lock guy with the nice suit who couldn’t even put together a talking point should be the poster man for how Obama became President.
