Anybody Still Think Obama Writes His Own Speeches?

[G.T.]

Reagan was not a dictator, he was a President and did not have control of Congress.

So the extent of his leadership, in-terms of effectiveness, is that he preached Conservatism and oversaw the opposite.

And so...Conservatives judge him based on.....................talking the talk, not walking the walk? Tight!~

What does any of this have to do with speech writing? It's this Short Attention Span Theater? In any event, he proposed eliminating the Dept of Education, remember?

Irony: Post #12, CF - It's a rare President that spends the time and has the conviction of his own ideas that he will write them himself: Lincoln and Reagan come to mind

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Are there still folks here that think Obama writes his speeches?

Do you think he has the time to do this between all of the fundraisers, appearances on "The View", and golf outings?

As-long-as he's kickin'-"conservative"-ass (without breakin'-a-sweat)....who cares who's writin' what?

Getting "really sick" of the adoration he receives sounds an awful lot like jealousy, to me.

Ya' gotta consider the EMBARRASSMENT "conservatives" (now) feel, after having vehemently-supported someone who was obviously (to most) unqualified for the Presidency.

Sure, Freddo. You want respect too, right?

I missed where Presidents are expected to write their own speeches....or is this another one of those cases where Obama is held to a standard no other President has had to?

Peggy Noonan became famous as, and is still billed as Reagan's speech writer. Of course he had others, as well.

She did take credit for a lot of Reagan's work.

"Evil Empire" and "Tear down this wall" were Reagan's and live forever. Peggy is the Jimmy Page of speechwriters, what's she done since she lost her drummer?

Peggy Noonan missed her calling as a soap-opera actress.

LOL I never once assumed he wrote his own speaches.

Look at what happened when he tried it for himself. "Daddy did you plug the hole yet?"

Reagan grew Government. Talk about convictions and adoration

Reagan was not a dictator, he was a President and did not have control of Congress.

"You... YOU TAKE THAT BACK! Saint Reagan was perfect in every way!"

I hate to break it to you, but presidents don't write their own speeches. And Jay Leno doesn't write his own comedy.

I know this but a thread was started earlier this year and many of his supporters here felt that he always wrote his own speeches.

I tried to convince them otherwise and they just called me a RACIST!!!!

The other day at the White House correspondent dinner he told a joke using a popular teen icon [Snookie] as part of the punchline.

On The View one of the ladies asked him yesterday if he was a Snookie fan and Obama said he didn't know who snookie was. Everyone on the couch seemed to know who Jersey Shore Snookie was except the President who had used her name in the joke not long ago.

Going back and watching the video of him telling the joke gives one the impression he was just reading it even more in retrospect.

Now this may be a silly point that I have to make but I get a little tired of the fawning adoration this guy gets and it was especially evident on The View. If Joy Behar could give Obama a BJ on that couch it appeared she would if given half a chance.

Many times I've seen people here say Obama writes his own speeches. To be honest there are serious questions about whether or not he even wrote his own books much less his speeches.

His terrorist bomber friend is said to have written this book.

Oh shit! Oh shit! The president LIED about not knowing who Snookie was..That or SOMEONE WROTE HIS SPEECH..Oh shit..That's socialism right thar! Call the waaaaaaambulance.
Like Bush wrote all of his speeches..Or any other modern day pres for that matter.

 

[hjmick]

I never thought the President wrote his own speeches. I think it's been a very long time since any American president wrote his own speeches. What's the big deal?

He didn't lie on The View. He didn't know who Snookie was.

Probably the first time in months he's been honest.
