Obama goes first in a few minutes. He's speaking at the rotunda of the National Archives (you think we could get Nicholas Cage on that birth certificate thingey?) on his Gitmo policy and other man-caused calamities.

Vice President Cheney gets the rebuttal time. He's speaking at the American Enterprise Institute around 10:45 a.m. EDT.

[thecabal]

That’s his whole MO. He does one thing, all the while assuring you he’s doing the exact opposite.

[Nasher]

Now he's saying that he is going to release even more memos and that by doing this it will make us safer.

HUH???????????????????????????????????????

This guy needs to stay off the swingset, he's becoming even more delusional than I had thought.

In a live debate format he will get called on this. Challenge him to a live debate in your speech Vice President Cheney.

[concerned about politics]

I have to say...this is the FIRST time I’ve ever heard Obama sound defensive. He knows he’s in deep sh**.

He started out blaming Bush for all the evil in the world, and now he's talking about NOT pointing the finger of blame at anyone.

What a total screw up. This "community organizer" has absolutely no idea what he's doing. We're all screwed.

[CheneyChick]

No one knows what he is talking about.

[mewzilla]

Now he's saying we shouldn't place blame...

Expecting the Islamists are gonna succeed in hitting us during your tenure, aren't you, Barry....

[Williams]

It was cvhilling when he said he opposes all of the enhanced interrogation techniques and the legal conclusions supporting them.

He even disagrees with the use of the harmless caterpilar?

[shadeaud]

I think it’s time to watch re-runs of laugh in. This clown is worse than Bill or the Jimbo

[Bronzy]

I think BO is going to talk all day.

[maica]

Yes, he did. That is the theme of this entire speech.

Dems are NEVER responsible for bad results! So they automatically turn to any other to blame.

[NordP]

"Mess" at G Bay? BHusseinO the only MESS at Gitmo is the excrement the inmates throw at our Guards! ...okay, well, and the crap that comes out of YOUR mouth.

.

IS HUSSEIN JUST TALKING AND TALKING AND HOPING CHENEY WILL JUST GO HOME? STOP BLATHERING! (SEE TAGLINE)

[ShandaLear]

I’ve watched the speech from the beginning and can’t figure it out myself. LOL!

[linn37]

Now some of Cheneys family appear to have been seated.

[Reagan Man]

The Demagogue versus Mister Gravitas!

[TChris]

Talk about a strawman, just said his opponents argue that “anything goes” and justify any means to the end.

Naked liberal projection.

"The ends justify the means" is classic progressive ideology, not conservative.

[goodnesswins]

“input from the public”.....yeah....TYPICAL Tactic of community organizers.....PRETEND you ARE listening to public “input.” What a joke! He KNOWS what the INPUT is!!!

[spectre]

Help...he’s talking and can’t shut up!

[MisterI]

This speech sounds like a high school essay that was required to be a minimum number of words. It’s all just repetition and filler, like it was designed just to fill a certain amount of time, to piss Cheney off!

[kabar]

How long is this “20 minute speech?”
