PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA'S FIRST PRESS CONFERENCE (LIVE THREAD)

November 7, 2008 | self

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

No one has posted this. We need to see what he is going to do to us.

[Infidel Puppy]

Everyone's missing the point. We're all supposed to retain a sense of hope in the Obamacoup, and blame for Bush.
Paying attention to words, as if they meant things, is a conservative mind game, and not to be played with Barry's flowing prose.

[gathersnomoss]

I have seen a still picture of the conference on Yahoo. That boy looks stoned! Half closed, glassy eye’s.

A Nancy Reagan thing about doing what??? What an asshole!

[Yaelle]

Did they all have a little laugh at poor Nancy Reagan’s expense? O ha ha ha.

[Boardwalk]

If there was something I’ve heard I couldn’t tell you. I have received intelligence briefings. ahhh, umm, and,ummm, I will make just a general statement, our intelligence process can always improve.

[kanawa]

He can’t help himself...surprised he didnt give the middle finger scratch while he was at it.

[Sprite518]

I don't like or trust the guy at all. However, respect the office and not the person.On a positive note I do not think were going to have to worry about any Monica Lewinsky’s.

[Williams]

If he were a republican the reporters would be wiping his ass all over that stage.

[Fawn]

I can't stand his ah's and umm...aaahh....I I .....ummmm...it makes me nervous.

Real nice to make fun of Nancy Reagan...jerk.

[tropical]

Some reporters addressing him as president-elect.

[Philo-Junius]

And, again, he’s misusing the word “enormity.”

Someone should slip him a note.

[Pete]

Had to mute when he started talking about which dog to buy. Way too painfully stupid.

"Office of the President-Elect"?!!? Oh, man. That is so, so lame. It reminds me of the Obama seal they had up for 1 day during the election. Embarrassing.

[Centurion2000]

That “office of the president elect” sign is downright classless. First, there is no such office. And second, the sign looks like it was printed in a hurry at a “Signs In Ten Minutes” type store.

Does his limo have a “Car of the president elect” sign?

Was it just me or is that an inverted pentagram in the circle at the top of the sign?

[windsorknot]

I think the stock market needs an Obama “breathalyzer”.

[KingSnorky]

“We will mount an international effort to prevent that from happening.”

Mounting? So he’s adopting the Clinton Doctrine? :)

[savedbygrace]

1) The market keeps diving WHILE he is speaking.

2) I think I will refer to him as President Uhh. It’s his most used word.

3) I LOLed when he specified that he has spoken with all living presidents who are living.

[Charles Bronson Forever]

Did this guy really go to Harvard? You gotta be kidding me. Lou Costello was more eloquent.

[6SJ7]

He sounds so DUMB, STUPID, and inarticulate. Without a script, he stumbles all over the place. A child could handle these questions better.

Oh goody. He's now a example of of the Peter Principle. I can't even start a countdown on his term because it has not even started!

Could we have a 30 day exchange or store credit on this past election?

[RooRoobird20]

He isn’t answering one question directly, he’s just repeating his stump speech. The reporters are having Obasams and peeing all over themselves.

[Grampa Dave]

[goodnesswins]
