He should have first immediately mentioned the troops we lost over the weekend IMO.
He looks very nervous and sweaty. Very unsure of himself for the first time, I think.

Now he finally acknowledges the Navy SEALS who were killed. How sickeningly he pretends to care.

Wow that was the shortest and worst speech ever!

“We’re still a AAA country”. ???????
That phrase must have polled well. It will be the headline.
Btw, Barry, under YOUR LEADERSHIP we are not AAA!
And further destroy the economy.

2 Years Ago Today Obama Says He’s Responsible For Economy “Give It to Me!” (Video)From the video: On July 14, 2009, Obama tells the country that he is responsible for the economy and memorably says,
“Give it to me.” “My administration has a job to do as well. That job is to get this economy back on its feet. That’s my job, and it’s a job I gladly accept. I love these folks who helped get us in this mess and then suddenly say, “Well this is Obama’s economy.” That’s fine. GIVE IT TO ME. My job is to solve problems, not to stand on the sidelines and carp and gripe. So, I welcome the job. I want the responsibility.”
And since that day everything he’s implemented has gone to hell.

Directions for those who cant see the speech;
1) Pass gas.
You just got more substance doing that than the entire speech had.

Even CNBC is now claiming that there was a lot of blame game that went on Obama's speech. What a loser!
To: All
He pulled out every trite political phrase in the book. The lumpen masses no doubt ate it up.
Faked sound and fury, signifying nothing!
OMG, the GOP National Chairman IS ACTUALLY ON TV!
Where on earth did they find him?
He's reading something off a COTUS.
