President Barack Obama said he believes the global financial system remains at risk of implosion with the failure of Citigroup or AIG, touching off “an even more destructive recession and potentially depression.”
His remarks came in a “60 Minutes” interview in which he was pressed by an incredulous Steve Kroft for laughing and chuckling several times while discussing the perilous state of the world’s economy.
“You're sitting here. And you're— you are laughing. You are laughing about some of these problems. Are people going to look at this and say, "I mean, he's sitting there just making jokes about money—” How do you deal with— I mean: explain. . .” Kroft asks at one point.
“Are you punch drunk?” Kroft says.
“No, no. There's gotta be a little gallows humor to get you through the day,” Obama says, with a laugh.

On this subject I read something recently that stuck with me: "We've elected a prom king."
Oh, No!
One should never, ever, talk about a politician's record -- or their plans and programs!
How dare you!
Just like Clinton at Ron Brown's funeral.
I’ve noticed that a number of times, and I try NOT to listen to him or watch him. I recoil from Zero like a vampire recoils from the Holy Cross.
Seriously? He is at Camp David AGAIN?
And people had the nerve to get upset at Bush taking a ONE WEEK VACATION?

He and his greedy, hateful, manbeast wife are demented users. Living high on the hog on our tax dollars. STARVE them. They are both useless POS’s. I would like a total on what his travel since he was elected has cost US. WE, THE PEOPLE.
maica:
just hijacking a link.
I am what? 4 hours late coming to this thread and it still going?
This guy is a tard and imbued with special powers as a Devil Worshipin’, Satanic Inspired, Commie-Imbecile
There is no press.
There is no press.
We are on our own here, folks.
___________
We can fight the press. We can do a total black out. ALL channels. They lose 50 MILLION or more viewers. We can have tea parties and protest outside CNN, MSNBC, FOX, NBC, CBS. Their free ride should be over as of today. I think we can make a difference with the press.
“Wow-he didn’t even shave for the interview???”
Seriously? I hope someone slaps a screenshot up for our viewing pleasure and give the rest of us an opportunity to ridicule the tard.
You can still say “slap” can’t you? Don’t want any brown shirts visiting or MIB’s.
I know the feeling!
Cripes! I keep hearing the same mind-numbed drivel about Hillary too. "Oh, she's at least an American. Hillary would be a centrist. At least Hillary would have the stones to deal with (fill in American enemy here.)"
Crapola! She was studying with hardcore Marxists when 0bammy was still crapping his diapers. How it could possibly be better to have someone with sense enough to hide her agenda most of the time, someone with 12 years executive experience in Arkansas and 8 years in the WH. And, yes, she does share that experience with Bubba because they are a twofer.
American grown liberal my arse! Biden is one of the hard left Marxist types like so many Dems today. He's just too dumb to be effective at anything.
As for McCain; he's too dumb to tell you the difference between a liberal and a conservative. His compass is mounted on the dashboard with a magnet.
Augustus = Reagan (both were strong, wise leaders who took over in times of turmoil and restored peace and prosperity).
Tiberius = Bush 41 (both were decent leaders but lesser than their predecessors. Their generals, Germanicus and Schwartzkopf, won great victories abroad).
Caligula = Clinton (both were immature, narcissistic, militarily incompetent, and obsessed with sex).
Claudius = Bush 43 (both were pathetically inarticulate and were derided as idiots by their contemporaries, but proved to be able administrators. Claudius conquered britain, Bush liberated Afghanistan and Iraq).
Nero = Obama (one played the lyre while Rome burned; the other played the liar while the USA melted down).
I don’t have any of their albums except In Through the Out Door and the first boxed set that came out in ‘90. I do miss the crackle of anticipation from a record album, though.
BARACK OBAMA:
This is the living quarters, up on the second floor. We got a gym right over there— up on the third floor. And— the second floor is— our bedroom’s on this side, and— we got a dining room on that side. And— yeah, pretty nice digs.

What a dirtbag POS. We have the ghetto gang in the WH. Pathetic.
Obama’s poem “Pop,” which is clearly about one of his youthful evenings with Frank Marshall Davis.

Can you post a link or post the poem here please?
Biden would be a step up from this @$$ goblin.
This story is on fire in the blogosphere now. Redstate and LGF have picked it up.
