BYO popcorn, beer and barf bags.
Get back up movies.It’s going to be a long 4 years.
***Thanks. Read any good books lately? (sigh)***
"I've said before that -- you know, people have asked me, when did it hit you that you are now president? And what I told them was the most sobering moment is signing letters to the families of our fallen heroes. It reminds you of the responsibilities that you carry in this office and -- and the consequences of the decisions that you make."
Unlike George W. Bush, who quietly and without any fanfare WROTE letters to the families of fallen servicemen and women, I take President Obama at his word - that he merely SIGNS letters.
O’Reilly loses me most of the time. He thinks Obama did a good job in this presser. An hour of angry denunciations and empty platitiudes?
Back in ‘02 I asked you to change my frname from txculprit to txyoyo or txflake - I need a new one.
Pick one: txhurl or txapopletic. Or pick your own.
Stockholm Syndrome...
i think his speaking style is boring....I just don’t see the draw....i must be blinded by my partisanship??
***The “cadence” while he’s speaking grates on my last nerve. He’s not delivering a sermon. (well he thinks it is)The last word always has such emphasis. Drives me nuts.***
And he who reads these words of wit, plays with balls of little sh%t...
No time but I am researching the Jonbenet case again.It went to cold cases.
I totally agree with you. There is an article going around FR that outlines how he hypnotizes people. An expert in the field gives specific examples of his speech, and explains what effect that has on people. It’s a several hundred page document. It makes good sense to me - people are hypnotized by him. Not your truly.
...not really ;)
He didn't.
But he used "terrorists" like three times in his answer. That was at least a partial rebuke to Helen.
Major Garrett is the FoxNews White House correspondent. Mara Liaison is on a FoxNews panel sometimes, but represents NPR, IIRC.
“He is such a liar! Saying that almost every economist agrees with his position. What about the full page ad in the NYT with over 200 economists, three of which were Nobel prize winners who said his plan won’t work.
He is stumbling around and clearly is uncomfortable. He is struggling with his answers. He sounds like an idiot. “
I can’t watch as he is just too annoying especially with the smugness of his misstatements. But you folks are what is getting me through. It sounds like a comedy but I’m sure the media won’t report it that way.
No more Cubbies for me—sorry Mr. Sunshine.
GO BREW CREW!
Your right it was a PRESS conference but are you also trying to say he did not know America was listening even after he (his team) highly publicized / promoted this conference.
Yes he should have looked art the press (Not above them all) but also to the camera some of the time would have been proper and better received by the people he was preaching to. Remember one of his purpose for the conference was to build the American public confidence on the stimulus as announce by his own team. So yes he should have used (looked) the camera a fair percentage of the time.
Excellent point.
Cheers!
Come on, now. Let's be fair to Present Obama. He doesn't merely SIGN letters written to the families of soldiers killed in action. He has a machine that does that.
