Obama Oval Office Speech Announcing End of Combat Operations in Iraq @ 8PM EDT [LIVE THREAD]

[Severa]

I searched all over and didn't see a live thread on tonight's speech soooooo here it is! (Be gentle on me, in all my years here this is my FIRST LIVE THREAD!)

[DrewsMum]

that’s ok, I’ve been looking for it all day ;0)

Sometimes the Freeper’s pregame show is helps me trudge through the scoundrel and the crap he spews......

[MAKOTHEDOG]

Here in mountain time he comes on at 6pm so nothing of real interest. It could be me to. I try not to watch TV and I will only watch the opinion shows afterwards. I don’t think my stomach can take a speech by O. IMO, he is not a good speaker and never says anything substantive. It is just pure propaganda in its most evil form.

[Gabrial]

Same here. The sanctity of my home is an “Obama free” zone.

[Busywhiskers]

“I am going to take a drink every time he says “I”.”

Do that and you will probably die of alcohol poisoning before he even get to the part where the teleprompter fails, the sound system starts cutting out, or a rat runs across the desk.

Mission Accomplished = Obama campaign starting early

He has no regard for the troops at all. They are just another campaign tool to him.

[Gabrial]

“WORST
PRESIDENT
*EVER*”

Ummmm,

You left off “in the known universe”.

Not to be picky...

[Nervous Tick]

I’d sooner have a root canal with no anaesthesia than watch that vile Kenyan spew his lies and communist vision.

[Hoffer Rand]

The evening news will tell us what Obama is going to say, Obama is going to say it, and then the network news will tell us what he said.

Followed by abject slobbering and gushing over how brilliantly he said it.

[musicman]

[kcvl]

I love that!

[ladyvet]

Guarantee we will hear something like this...” I am not declaring mission accomplished, we have learned from the past that such rhetoric....blah, blah, blah.”

[Hoffer Rand]

But what we really want to know is did he have the teleprompter color-coordinated to match the new decor of the oval office.

[hinckley buzzard]

Don't think of it as starting a live thread. Think of it as tailgating before the big game. In Cleveland they start about 5 AM.

[windsorknot]

I’m paying someone else to watch who will give me a CliffsNotes version later. My sock drawer needs attention again.

[caww]

Thank you...have bookmarked for later. Wasn’t on FR then ..just lurking..will be a story of Freepers I have since come to know....thanks again. CW

[The Wizard]

I have to rewind my DVD’s so I’ll have to forgo the opportunity to be lied to directly by a man who should be behind bars and not in the oval office

[Proud_USA_Republican]

It’s another night of lies from TOTUS as he spins another liberal fantasy.

Of the roughly 50,000 American military personnel who remain in Iraq, the majority are still combat troops — they’re just named something else. The major units still in Iraq will no longer be called “brigade combat teams” and instead will be called “advisory and assistance brigades.” The differences in brigade structure and personnel are minimal.

American troops in Iraq will still go into harm’s way. They will still accompany Iraqi units on combat missions, even if only as “advisers.” American pilots will still fly combat missions in support of Iraqi ground forces. And American special forces will still face off against Iraqi terrorist groups in high-intensity operations.

haha, I meant as in the majority of the freepers on that now defunct thread were not going to watch. I won’t be watching either.
