Pathetic!

He is sure milking this thing for every cheap political point he can muster. From what I can tell though from comment sections on the internet news links...folks have had enough of his showboating...lol

It will probably go over like a lead balloon.

Is there any question about which will blow more, the speech or the storm?

“FEMA has less than $800 million in their coffers and I guarantee Obama will demand congress approve more taxpayer’s money so he can keep buying the votes.”

The most likely scenario...

It was going to be a Cat 4 until the Obamessiah calmed the waters. He saved a lot of lives through his miracles.

Oh ... more slamming of Bush (Katrina) and more self glorification? Pathetic weasel.

Sorry ... no offense to real weasels meant.

Looky here .... Irene VS Katrina: The Contrasting Ideologies of Obama and Bush

So the hero Obama cuts his vacation short because of Irene but still gets worshipped for doing better than Bush did during Katrina? Really? That's almost as good as CBS' hurrican "expert" Ray Nagin. LOL!!!!!

Does anyone know where/when the next Obama vacation will be?

There's always another Obama vacation in the planning.

“He is putting the justice department on Irene.”

The DOJ is far too busy running confiscated “illegal” guitars into Mexico. Lol...

Through my leadership, we have averted a great disaster. I will continue to protect the coasts from storms while I am President and I will now spend tens or hundreds of billions in new stimulus using this tropical storm as an excuse.

Keep talkin’, Hussein. People get more sick of you every time you blabber.

I suspect, folks, this ENTIRE WEEK will be a series of statements by Hussein and his punks Janet and Ray LaHood and Mayor Bloomdork...all in an attempt to make themselves look like they’re in control...and the non-event that was Irene was due to their masterful work.

The media, of course, ever eager to be the first to fellate Hussein, will play along—cheering his non-eventful “management” of the non-terrifying Irene.

Obama will tell us that he is the savior and he “parted the waters.” It will be a speech full of “I...I...I.” I was on the phone with every official about the hurricane while on my vacation and I told Gov. McDonnel...I told Gov. Christi...I told Mayor Bloomberg...I told FEMA.. etc. what to do. Then I flew back; cut my vacation short and I told God...blah, blah, blah. So we FReepers gotta count all those “I’s” as Obama takes credit for the demise of Irene.

OMG - Yet another call to worship!!!

Has anyone counted the number of appearances he has made on TV, Cable, and Radio during his almost three long years in office. Honestly it seems like an eternity, and it just goes on and on and on.................A GOOD SPEECH IS JUST WHAT THIS NATION NEEDS TO CURE ALL THE ILLS.

How many times will he say “I”?

He will try to take credit for rescuing us from a thunderstorm.

Sometimes it is better to just shut up, but this fool is too stupid to know that.
