I won't be watching but will follow in this thread for those who dare to actually watch..
Typical CONVOLUTED response from Obama (from transcript):
QUESTION: — are you confident that charities are wrong when they contend that this would discourage giving?
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Yes. I am. I mean, if you look at the evidence — there’s very little evidence that this has a significant impact on charitable giving. I’ll tell you what has a significant impact on charitable giving is a financial crisis and an economy that’s contracting. And so the most important thing that I can do for charitable giving is to fix the economy, to get banks lending again, to get businesses opening their doors again, to get people back to work again. Then I think charities will do just fine.
Yes, my sister wants to have his children. Often she’ll call us after one of his speeches or conferences to bask in the post-Obama-talk glow... which is odd because she knows that we hate him, and we just end up getting her angry.
Did they release the text of his statement earlier today? Because the teleprompter blog had it word for work in a post this afternoon!
$$$$$
I tried to avoid all TV appearances of the One during his campaign, but as little as I did see, gave me the distinct impression that Obama believed that his job as POTUS was to explain what the Administration was doing to the American people. IOW, salesman in chief. He distinctly gave me the impression that he was not planning to do the heavy lifting of actually Making Policy - hired hands would do that.
So this statement tonight was an inadvertent glimmer of truth from the man.
Funny stuff. Thanks for posting. I needed a laugh right about now.
Instead of watching the presser to its conclusion, focusing on what was being said, and forming their own thoughts/impressions - they have to play with the crackberries like 7 year olds?
WOW .... they are making us look like moderates !!! :)
He displays the neuroses and narcissistic behaviors of a completely managed and planned life, just like Jackson, if you think about it.
Sounds like she's an emotional masochist.
Michelle and Rahm are digging holes in the rose garden for reporters now.
Not historic, you say? I beg to differ. One of the White House press corp in the front row is going commando tonight on a double-dare bet with new Commerce Secretary Gary Locke to be the first such high-profile media person to do so during a Presidential press conference. Guess away.

The blind worship of this guy, and his central planning policies, just shows the abject failure of public schools.
I don’t think there are enough private schools and home schooled children coming down the pipeline to save us.
Someone on that blog pointed out that he didn’t even say God Bless America.

Wrapping Things Up From Tonight
I think Gibbsy and I have settled on a truce. He’s happy with the LCD screen for White House use. I’m happy to be back in control of the messaging. And as long as he keeps the text Arial Bold, we’ll be okay.
You may have noticed that Valerie Jarrett, one of Big Boy’s most senior aides, did not look happy, particularly after Toes showed her an email he’d received notifying him that her car had been towed as he’d requested. It wasn’t blocking anything. Toes just likes to do that to remind us that he can.

Yep. Just like the other time. Idol will be on tomorrow night and the following night. Der Fuhrer wants to be on TV regularly don’t cha know, just like Casto did, and Chavez does.
Oh what I wouldn’t give to see his face turn as red as his soul. To see him blow a 50 amp fuse would be...PRICELESS.
Not really. He didn’t actually say that did he?
I can’t watch, my BP goes up too high and I screamed so loud the last time the neighbors called to check on my wife. And we live in the middle of 5 acres.
You are a brave soul.
“He displays the neuroses and narcissistic behaviors of a completely managed and planned life, just like Jackson, if you think about it.”
I agree, but I think Obama is more malignant than Jackson. The latter ultimately came off looking pathetic, whereas Obama looks, to me anyway, really sinister. (I.e.: I agree with Rush that Obama is an angry man out to settle scores, with no appreciation of the destruction and devastation such actions will leave in his wake.)
A little off topic, but this is why I do NOT believe those who say Obama is a closet Muslim. He invited that so-called pastor who is “married” to his “husband” to deliver a “prayer” at the inauguration. A Muslim would never honor a Sodom-and-Gomorrah type in such a way. Rather, I think Obama secretly mocks and despises all religions, and makes himself feel uber-sophisticated, intellectual and superior by laughing behind the backs of anyone who believes in God. Fwiw.

In the good, old tradition of revolutionaries, Obama hides in plain print. So, before listening to him speak, it’s worth while to note the following passages from his autobiography:
On p. 94-95 he describes an effective tactic to deal with White people:
It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned: People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied; they were relieved - such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn’t seem angry all the time.
OMG!!!! That’s funny as hell! LOL!
