You know this administration is no different then any other. We will be just as sick of Obama in four years as anyone else. Its because nobody really talented and devoted to making things work is in government.
Its all about people trying to make a name for themselves. Why American’s do not wake up and demand better people in government is beyond me. We seem too easily convinced that they will make a change.
I still cannot believe how any administration can sell us on another government program like health care. While we are drowning in debt!

i was wondering when you were going to find this.

talk about a breakthrough. i really hope this goes viral.

the MSM is realizing that events about to unfold in the coming months will severely expose their complicity in the mass deception campaign obama and his cabinet are running.

Helen is esp pissed because she’s been part of the whitehouse press core for some 50yrs and knows first hand, this administration has taken control of the press
to a level never done before.

(she’s also been let down in a big way because she voted for him)

all of obama’s press conferences
are highly scripted. they make no effort to hide it either.

then again, Brand Obama is a brillant attempt to run a presidency as highly produced
and scripted infomercial for
which Americans have been programmed to eat up like candy.

Lets hope this wakes up some die hard obamazoids. -the state of shock they’ll be in when the truth finally hits the fan may very well leave many of them paralyzed to do anything if they learn it the hard way.

I guess we can say the honeymoon is definitely over and in fact, is headed for a very nasty divorce. (about time too)

it’ll be interesting how the whitehouse handles this. I’m thinking heart attacks, but
maybe getting them both on a plane headed over the Indian
Ocean might be easier to cover,
what with all the magnetic anomalies and such. i mean,
what the heck, we have
celebrities dropping like
flies lately, who’d notice?

Dallas says:

Agree town hall questions should completely taken at random.

The delusional republican granny asking if Obama was a Muslim is the current champ.

However, opened up to the internet we may get the entertainment zinger Americans crave.

“Ms. Palin, when did your daughter become a whore? “

RTaylor says:

C. J. handled these situations so much better in the Bartlett Administration. Toby was a pain in the ass.

Grandpa says:

Such bullshit. Why can’t someone just tax all goods coming into this country of all American based businesses that were sent overseas, press charges and imprison those that hire illegals, and put an end to H1b visas in fields where more than 5% Americans are unemployed.

End of problems. Americans have work, pay taxes, balanced budget just around the corner.

Greg Allen says:

This “scandal” needs a BS meter.

Awake says:

The hypocrisy of the press in that room goes beyond the physical limits of the laws of the universe.

The ‘reporters’ in that room are NOT members of the press. They are just there to take notes and regurgitate the talking points that the ‘press secretary’ has been assigned to disseminate. Not once in our lifetime have those ‘reporters’ ever followed up on statements made in that room… no investigative journalism, no challenges, nothing. The exception being Helen Thomas, who for the best part of EIGHT years was never called upon by the Bush Press secretary out of fear that she would ask an actual question.

The JOB of the Press Secretary is to represent the perspective of the administration, not to provide news. If those aholes that are in that room want to be real reporters, they have to get off their ass and start doing some work, instead of glorified cut-and-paste bloggers.

On the subject of town hall meetings, the king of meaningless meetings was ‘Dubya’ Bush… his record stands unsurpassed. Not only were his town hall meetings deeply scripted, they were violently anti-freedom of speech and assembly… only the few blessed by the party were allowed to attend or even be in the general vicinity.

Faxon says:

Of course these Town Hall meetings are bullshit. We all know that. Where is Joe the Plumber? Nowhere to be seen at these things… Just suck up liberal shit.

deowll says:

Dallas, why do you hate Palin so much? Did you abort one of your kids or something? Just asking.

done says:

Anyone with an ounce of objectivity, respect for the political center of America recognizes the Obama White House’s stage-directing of the press and disdain for ordinary people as “aberrant.”

More generally, I’ve never seen such hatred in American politics…and while the Right has its bombthrowers, the Left seems to be almost entirely filled with spittle-flecked ranters. It’s not even close. I don’t know anyone on the left who has the slightest compunction about wearing an Obama pin to a job interview, or walking into a party filled with strangers saying “Isn’t it great to have a non-demonic government now?” while conservatives know they can get fired or screamed at and shunned if anyone finds out they don’t worship The One.

Most ordinary folks simply have given up trying to engage their neighbors on politics. Either they are also generally conservative (like most of the productive workers in this country), or they’re going to start screaming that you’re a fascist and try to get you shunned by the rest of the neighborhood.

I’m moving to another country in August for a 2 year assignment…if I like it I’m not coming back. You guys have the whole sandbox now, and we’re no longer wanted, so enjoy.

No whining if you’re not in Paradise in 8 years…if Obama’s really all that and a bag of chips, nothing can stop you now that Al Franken has joined the party.

ECA says:

there is to much BULL SPIT going on in government.

A person from india asked me about the corruption in getting things done, in INDIA.
I told him it was the same here.
He inquired HOW that could be..
I told him, we tax it, license it, regulated it, INSPECT it and charge for every part of this. Then make it LAW. then add property tax.
He agreed that it was JUST as bad.

Look up Socrates.
those that know Who/what/when/where/how/why of the government, dont like the job. So, we must contend with those that WANT the job and have less skills or have other agendas.

Stopher2475 says:

I see their point to some extent but there’s always going to be someone who’s question doesn’t get asked based on time. You wouldn’t want one group monopolizing. Maybe they need some third like the college to select a set that makes sure everything gets touched on like in the debates.

lop says:

Patrick, it’s impssible for it to be worse than the last one. Hitler would not be worse than the last one.

Ok, I take it back…if Obama decides to launch all the US ICBMs straight up and let them come down and nuke us 50 times over, it would be worse. Other than that. it cannot possibly be worse.

If people like you would join Obama in rebuilding the country, we’d be well on our way. But if you keep throwing wrenches into the works by spreading cynicism and suspicion, it’s not going to get better.
