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!)

[Sarah Barracuda]

Yeah I can imagine what he told him on the phone, let me guess “I WON” was probably the first two words out of his trap

[onyx]

YES! He hates the military too.

CAMPAIGN SPPECH.

Mouthing words written by others.

” A mother’s kiss...”

Give me a break.

[Carley]

So let me be perfectly clear. This is a campaign speech and nothing more.

[ladyvet]

OMG! He’s done it again....I’m completely lost.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A MEXICAN MARACHIE BAND COME PAST THOSE WINDOWS IN THE BACK!!! ha!!

[LA Woman3]

OK I can not watch...Did he spray paint grey onto his hair some to make him look older (like that will make us take him more serious) or not?

It appears he found a box of "Just for Men" while on vacation.

[Beaten Valve]

LMFAO!

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

[bonfire]

WHy is he all over the place?

Someone mess up the teleprompter?

[McLynnan]

Aw, he’s trying to puddle up to show his compassion for our military’s sacrifices.

[BykrBayb]

I didn't hear "persevere." I heard "perservere."

[Robwin]

OMG, I am geting ready to puke.

[loveliberty2]

Left room. Only hear the constant whistling. Needs a speech pathologist’s help.

[paulycy]

So let me be perfectly clear. This is a campaign speech and nothing more.

Correct. It is a speech that had no business being made.

[potlatch]

Good for you Severa!

[JPG]

And all that damn whistling. Annoying.

[wvguy]

Looks like he’s trying to grow some TEARS!

I’m about ready to puke.

[andy58-in-nh]

I can’t watch this duplicitous SOB any more. I’m glad I have you folks
to watch for me. I’ve already exceeded my recommended daily allowance of BS.

[lodi90]

“He’s making a campaign SPPECH!!!”

Pathetic. He is talking like he is running for the Republican nomination!

[Rebelbase]

THANK GOD IT’S OVER!

[sissyjane]

The steel in our ship of state??? Barf-o-rama
