Obama press conference thread

[senseamp]

Refreshing to see someone as informed and articulate talk on the subject.

"We just can't afford what we're doing right now"

Really pres? And you want to tackle that with more debt/deficit spending? He honestly believes, I think, that this is not going to cost money.

He's off teleprompter now, you must be on a big delay.

Imagine Sidney, Sarah or George giving this same press conference. That would have been hilarious.

Except for the fact that he doesn't mention the CBO analysis....

EDIT: Designed to lower the deficit? What? Has the plan changed significantly since last Thursday?

Obama is just babbling now

 

[Rebasxer]

To the question why do we have to do this now...

Obama says because American's are hurting and need immediate relief from healthcare burdens

The bill wouldn't go into effect until 2013....

And here come the anecdotal stories. You can basically predict what he's going to say.

They sure beat your anecdotal stories.

And his get prime time coverage. Yours don't. :laugh:

Do as I say, not as I do?

Nice Democrat elitism.

Did we seriously elect this guy?

His own party is trying to delay this.

not surprising since his own party is under a three way split.

Obama is *not* saying anything informative. He's just repeating the same old crap that the economy sucks, Republicans only want to politically ruin him, and the massive spending bill apparently is creating jobs?

I already know exactly why we need health care reform, but I'm long from being convinced the solution the Democrats in congress are taking will actually improve care and reduce costs.

If I could say something to Obama, it would be stop talking about why, and try elaborating on the "how" part of the debate :roll:

The press is asking some retarded questions... i don't care about CSPAN just give me the UHC info!!

Amazing.

Yeah, those pre-screened questions really present him with a great opportunity to spell the plan out.

I'm watching his body language and his eyes. The constant eye blinking is the sign of somebody who is lieing and is unsure of his statements.

Bitterness is palpable in this thread. Give man credit where it's due.

We're just having some fun, lighten up. I do enjoy hearing him speak, though I don't believe quite a bit of what he says.

So you noticed he had to look down to call on a reporter each time? "oh yes, you may ask a question...it's right here on my list!"

Yes, he is reading their names off of a list. Might be a delay tactic in order to allow the gophers enough time to shift the teleprompters to his new sight line when he looks at the reporter, however.

 

[spidey07]

Yeah, those record profits!

Look you bastard - the business of business is to make more money. Do you know what a profit margin is Mr. President, do you know what gross revenue is Mr. President? Any company will have record profits year over year otherwise they will go out of business.

 

[spidey07]

heh, he's balking on if congress or him should abide by the same rules.
