‘Uhhh,’ the president’s ‘uhhh’ press conference was ‘uhhh’ terrible
Washington Post ^ | 6-8-12 | Ed Rogers

If you are president of the United States and you don’t have anything to say, don’t have a press conference to say it. If you’re the president of the United States and by Thursday it’s widely believed you’ve had one of the worst weeks of your presidency, take Friday off, and specifically avoid having a press conference.

Anytime you are president and you’re speaking in public at an ill-timed press conference after a bad week, try to have something to say, and do a good job in saying it. I watched the whole thing, but it’s not easy to think of one useful thing that he had to say. And what he said, he said very poorly.

A saying I was told when very young;

“It’s better to keep your mouth shut,

and be thought a fool,

Than to open your mouth and prove it !”

If the Washington Compost has turned the Obama rotten tomato, then they are getting ready to try to plant Hillary or someone else.

I am surprised they are prepping the garden this late in the season.

He had a press conference? Who? Today? Don’t people have anything better to do than listen to little Barry Buckfart blame everybody else for his incompetence? I don’t even know any LIBERALS that listen to this skinny little creep anymore and believe me, I work in Hollywood! I know a lot of liberals.

Will there be a tipping point in the next five months, where it suddenly becomes generally cool even for the left to laugh at the wannabe emperor for being naked?

Anytime you are president and you’re speaking in public at an ill-timed press conference after a bad week

and spend the next week trying to clarify what you said

If you look at Baraq’s career

He’s gone to some fancy schools (but no transcripts)
Held some prestigious titles (but never did or wrote anything)
Elected to some offices (always against extremely weak flawed opponents)

The guy is a total fabrication.
Finally I think he’s screwed up so bad even the MSM can’t save him.
