Who's going to watch BO read the 100 day speach tonight?

[Annie]

When, Oh when is this MSM going to actually begin asking this president pertinent questions?

There was not one question about the NYC overflight of AF-backup and the fighter escort a couple of days back, not one. This media is entirely too subservient. What are they afraid of?

And, BTW, there was not a single follow-up question.

Analysis: Obama channels FDR amid crises


WASHINGTON (AP) -- "That wasn't me," President Barack Obama said on his 100th day in office, disclaiming responsibility for the huge budget deficit waiting for him on Day One. It actually was partly him - and the other Democrats controlling Congress the previous two years - who shaped the latest in a string of precipitously out-of-balance budgets.

And as a presidential candidate and president-elect, he backed the twilight Bush-era stimulus plan that made the deficit deeper, all before he took over and promoted spending plans that have made it much deeper still.

Obama met citizens at an Arnold, Mo., high school Wednesday in advance of his prime-time news conference. Both forums were a platform to review his progress at the 100-day mark and look ahead.

At various times, he brought an air of certainty to ambitions that are far from cast in stone.

His assertion that his proposed budget "will cut the deficit in half by the end of my first term" is an eyeball-roller among many economists, given the uncharted terrain of trillion-dollar deficits and economic calamity that the government is negotiating....

Not I. I'm going to a Tea Party planning event.

And miss busting my ass at work? No way. Somebody's got to pay his freakin' bills.

Sure, Repubs are now the party of NO, teaparties and obstruction. It might do you some good to listen to him.

Btw, at least 60% of voters will be watching and anyone else who is interested in what Democrats have accomplished thus far.

Yet another "60% of voters ..." parrot.

We already are well-aware of what Democrats have done, thanks. It takes hard work to try and not think about it and go into a fit of depression.

you're kidding, right?

She's just a well-mannered talking point parrot, but parrot nonetheless.

He stutters too much for me. I'll just read the transcript tomorrow.

Maybe you could get a PPV peek at his teleprompter?

I like these little one line, midnight proclamations.

You're goofy..

I took a nap ... but let me guess at what he said ...

... "change" ... "swine flu" ... "need more money" ...

Not at all. Your statement was baseless rhetoric. Sorry if my current work schedule isn't convenient for you. It isn't doing me any favors, but at least I'm out working and not asking someone else to pay my bills.

You're a leftwingnut sheep, rebleeting talking baseless talking points. I DID give you credit for your manners though, so it ain't all bad.

And your posts to me are all about the player and not the game. That's how all Republicans are acting these days, it's commonplace and contemptible. In general, you're defeated, whiney, insulting..

Sorry if my comments hurt your feelings, I just get tired of these petty responses every morning. I'm sure there are many others who care about your opinion of them here.

I don’t watch such speeches – when given by Democrats or Republicans. I don’t watch “State of the Union” speeches or any other similar type of speech. It is just predictable self-serving political rhetoric. (Yawn)
