The White House is exasperated with the major broadcast networks ABC, CBS and NBC -- for skipping out on President Barack Obamas Thursday primetime address on his executive actions on immigration.
In 2006, Bush gave a 17 minute speech that was televised by all three networks that was about deploying 6000 national guard troops to the border. Obama is making a 10 minute speech that will have a vastly greater impact on the issue. And none of the networks are doing it. We cant believe they were aggrieved that we announced this on Facebook, a senior administration official told POLITICO.
When the president wants to make a primetime address, White House officials will reach out to the big networks like ABC, NBC, and CBS, to gauge whether they would consider running the speech live before putting in a formal request for airtime.

I don’t have to watch the Obama speech to know what and how he will speak. He will wear a sweet smile, like he use to when he spoke to the nation about Obamacare. His demeanor will be the same as a first grade teacher— sweet and with fake excitement trying to con a reluctant bunch of little cave dwellers into learning a lesson. He will explain how it is so simple, see, and so easy to implement, so much in the American tradition of generosity, etc. And HE HAS BEEN PATIENT!!!! And so out of the goodness of his heart etc. etc.
The RATS’ plan is to televise it on the Spanish speaking networks (e.g., Univision) but not on the networks going out to the broader audiences. Another attempt to keep the “low information” crowd in the dark.
Poor Baraq, it’s tough going up against the KC Chiefs LOL.
Bush was giving a speech on a lawful use of the N.G. Bowbama is to give a speech on unconstitutional/illegal action he is taking.
Wish someone would point out that the Presiden has the RIGHT to seize the airwaves and force them to carry his speech.
Iirc Reagan threatened to do just that for one of his speeches (the one asking for support for fundint the Contras, iirc) in the 1980s.
I’m sure it will be on Telemundo.
They are CO-CONSPIRATORS in a MARXIST SCHEME TO INVADE THE USA.
Yep. He doesn’t want people to hear about it til it’s all over.
Can't argue with that it makes it 5 million illegals greater.
Actually they’re doing him a favor by trying to keep his latest lawless act under wraps, but he’s too stupid to know it.
I suspect all the cable news networks will be showing it.
They are doing him a favor by keeping his base of STUPIDS in the dark about his criminal action.
So... Bazinga!
Bingo. This is another black out, by order of the King.
What’s the point in listening him lie...
further?
Everybody in America, including leftards, are sick and tired of seeing and hearing bobo.
“Yeah, right. HE ASKED THEM NOT TO AIR IT.”
Exactly, this whole charade is typical Obola BS.
Odumbass is too stupid to realize they are DOING HIM A HUGE FAVOR
I would not if he was in my fenced back yard. Nope not gonna watch.
