Wow, as he walked out a reporter shouts “No questions about Iraq or Afghanistan Mr. President?”

No, of course not.

[hoosiermama]

NO comment on Walpin and none of Korea....SIgnificant.

[ReneeLynn]

The way this speech went he couldn’t bring down a house of cards. Oh, wait. He’d just expel air on it. That’s what this presser was, expelled air.

[tina07]

All the STUPID voted for him

[STARWISE]

Absolutely ... their family, work and educational ethics
are unparallelled. He must be referring to the Korean
gangs in LA.

[Vermont Lt]

Results from the “Buy GLD when Obama starts talking” method of investing: Up about $0.20, with a peak of about $0.30.

[TomGuy]

If his intent was to raise his poll numbers, I don’t think he succeeded.

He didn’t say anything that would raise many cheers — except possible from the Iranian leadership.

[DogBarkTree]

Walpin never came up.

[truthandlife]

Okay, Chris Matthews says Obama showed his intellectual command, his cool. says questions were snarky, Andrea agrees, it was a homerun!

This is how the press covers for him. He gives the press conference that nobody watches and then the MSM is able to spin it just as the "talking points" from Obama comes out before the speech even starts. Most Americans believe it too. SICKENING!

[Freedom2specul8]

I refused to watch it, and decided to read through this thread. :-p

[ninergold3]

Been in any casino's lately?

Nah - waste of time and $$$$ we don't have to blow.

[retrokitten]

He could go out to the podium, relieve himself and walk off without saying anything. Those two would still call it a “home run!” “a commanding pee!” and say the podium deserved it.

[kabar]

China has stated that the elections in Iran should be recognized and that we should move on. I wonder if the US position is being influenced by China, the biggest foreign holder of our debt and the source of future funding of Obama’s socialism.

[nfldgirl]

My thoughts exactly about the Asian-American community...no way in hell are they looking for handouts.

[ladyvet]

Oh no, now he’s saying that Neda’s shooting in Iran was “fundamentally unjust”.

I guess if it was for a pair of Nike's it would have made sense to him./S

[STARWISE]

ms-0-bc ............ all Obamalove, all the time.

[Freedom2specul8]

“all the stupid belong r us” ???

[Vermont Lt]

I am reminded of DiNiro in “Meet the Parents’. “I’ve got my eyes on you....” Bambi should have used the two fingers at the eyes motion. That would have been effective.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

Or how he pronounces the word policies like this POLISEAS.

[Miss Behave]

He is working on teaching "how people carry themselves" and "how to write an email."

He wants people looking for jobs to WALK COOL like him, and learn how to read and write. Public schools do that, right?

And besides, I thought he wanted to employ people into jobs by learning how to work a shovel.
