Why does it have to be an address to the joint session of Congress anyway? Why doesn’t he just give the speech from the WH?

The joint session would be for the “I'm in charge here” optics. Unless this idiot starts WWIII, the GOP shouldn't give him a joint session outside of the 2012 State of the Union until we all vote him out of office.

Because the Obozo wants to make a campaign speech in a forum where he'll get applause from the brain-dead dems. He wants to look presidential by having congress sitting at his feet while he blathers on about his "jobs" plan, with Bite Me popping up to cheerlead the applause every few seconds. Plus, nobody listens to his teleprompter cr*p from the WH anymore.

Because no one would listen. At least this way he is assured of some kind of an audience. I think he should just post it on the internet and then go vacation in Vermont.

Then he wouldn’t get a chance to lecture those whom he wants us to hold responsible for his disastrous economy.

(On the off chance that that wasn’t just a rhetorical question. :-) )

Because Obama doesn’t have any economic/employment solutions. His sole purpose for giving this speech is to shift the blame for the economy onto the Congress, especially now since for the past 6 months Republicans have held the House. He wants to betray himself as blameless, but tough!

Does anyone think that the MSM or the Dems will point out that the Dems have fully controlled the Congress from 2007 through 2011? ....and still control the Senate? I don’t either.

Obama’s speech is nothing more than a campaign speech given before the nation and congress. Pure political poppycock.
