Considering the morons posting in the comments section, my guess is this is the newspaper of choice for people pulling in a government check every month.

The speech was nothing but a defensive act.

Also, it was in his cave. Without questions.

If a president can't be 100% in charge in the Oval Office, you have to wonder if he himself believes in his plan. Or if he actually has one, for that matter.

Josh Greenman

Josh Greenman, a Yale graduate and former speechwriter for Joe Lieberman and Rudy Giuliani, was Director of Strategy and Communications at The Teaching Commission, a Washington, D.C.-based, nonpartisan, nonprofit organization created to “improve student performance and close America’s dangerous achievement gap by transforming the way in which America’s public school teachers are prepared, recruited, retained, and rewarded.”

Josh recently joined the New York Daily News as opinion editor and a member of the editorial board.

Well, this Greenman guy thinks the health care bill is a good one so he’s not very bright.

I wish he hadn’t brought up Guiliani...that’s exactly who we need in this thing. He should put Guiliani in charge of the clean up.

Daily snooze is NYT lite

With an even lower circulation.

I love it when the NY Post refers to this lib rag as the Daily Snooze!

Whether you like Rudy Giuliani or not (I have mostly postive but mixed feelings about the man), it should still disgust you to see this twerp take an unnecessary cheap shot at his former boss. He could have picked any number of crisis managers for this column. Lincoln was an excellent crisis manager, for example.

Did this guy watch the same speech the rest of the world watched?

The dork author of this piece couldn’t be MORE wrong.

President Bush “responded” to Katrina before it even happened.

Due to the usual media machinations, people have forgotten it was Bush who had to lean on Blanco and Nagin to get an evacuation going in the first place. BEFORE the storm hit.

These people simply have no shame. When history doesn’t support their agenda, they do their best to “cleanse” it.

So which Obama donor has New York Daily News writer
Joshua Greenman on its payroll? Soros? Blankfein? Pritzker and the Chicago mob?

You're following the wrong procedure. Here's how you get someone to stop posting to you on FR:

1. Write an Opus.
2. Post said Opus.
3. Leave.

He's gotten this far by being a steady ship in high seas...

What? No executive experience, no command experience, not one day- ever, before becoming president. And since becoming president he hasn't accomplished anything except watching his own party pass their own legislation in a government they control, not exactly a feat of skill.

Obama, the epic failure, flopping around like a fish out of water — so how is he to “fall” when he’s already laying prostrate?

Tough. Don't read my posts, problem solved. I find it incredible that people take this so seriously that they would bring old arguments onto new threads. Frankly, I don't remember you, nor anything you've ever said publicly or privately. But I'm sure flattered you remembered me. I am kinda memorable.

The writer probably wrote this before the speech was given.

You have to just love these self-hating libtard Jews who worship at Obama’s ass.

Joshua Greenman. Even his dumb ass name is a pun to the enviro-wackos he worships. 99.99999999 % know Ozero went down in FLAMES. But not this douche-bag.
