Obama Oval Office Speech Announcing End of Combat Operations in Iraq @ 8PM EDT [LIVE THREAD]

[Severa]

I searched all over and didn't see a live thread on tonight's speech soooooo here it is! (Be gentle on me, in all my years here this is my FIRST LIVE THREAD!)

[chooseascreennamepat]

He has totallly screwed up the economy in this country. On purpose.

Blah...blah...blah. He is such a phoney.

[azishot]

That’s all he ever does!

[mewzilla]

Did he mention that he is NOT going to prosecute the b - s - a- r - who did the hit on the USS Cole?

I'm sure he'll get to mentioning it right after he comes clean about his role in the Lockerbie bomber deal.

Braves 1/Mets 0 bottom of the 4th inning.

He’s bought into his own hype. The country is bankrupt because of his actions yet he thinks we are growing the middle class. He has bought into the hype that he is God, he really thinks he is greater than God. I bet he looks in the mirror everyday and says “You are SO cute!”

[maggief]

“As long as I am president... “

There it is again.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

He just blamed our whole economic problems on the WAR in Iraq...Good God, what a jerk....

What a bunch of crap...Now he is demanding we put our country back together...oil, new products, blah blah...”our central mission as a people....( oops, commie lingo!)

[paulycy]

Beck’s rally was successful

Good point.

[Seattle Conservative]

“Barry can’t give Bush any credit. What a peevish little man. “I spoke to him on the phone”... then nothing else.”

I heard a reporter on FNC this a.m. say something to the effect of ‘Pres Obama called Pres Bush and spoke to him for a few moments’. Probably just long enough to say, hey, George, just a hi - see ya.’

Mark Levin just snored through part of the speech and is now getting into full comment mode ;-)

[Carley]

IMHO, he is under the inflence of some illegal substance.

[COUNTrecount]

“A better life awaits anyone who is willing to work for it..”

That's a foreign concept to him.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Is there a coherent message anywhere in his rambling?

No. Levin's snoring. So am I.

[CedarDave]

And he's wearing too much make up. He looks like a demonic transvestite.

Arrrgh!! Not watching so that imagery is imprinted in my mind.

[ladyvet]

Not his grandfather again!

[mewzilla]

America is the leader of the free world?????? did I just hear him right????

Which is why Barry's so intent on undermining it.

[Severa]

Dangit you beat me to it. Yes ANOTHER campaign speech. I’m typing because my sons are still awake and I don’t want to cuss loudly at the TV..

[A.Hun]

Yes, the POSOTUS did.

[Mr. Wright]

. . . and after he explains why he does not wear his BC
on his forehead!!

[tapatio]

A better life awaits anyone who is willing to work for it..”

Well that would be nice if anyone was hiring right now.

[Argus]

Reruns of BONES. It’s a fun show.
