POTUS Tonight

Wow another prime time presser.
At this rate he will eclipse Bush’s entire Presidency early in the 2nd year.

Teleprompter: make the president do a good job now.
Did Teleprompter and Obama patch things up? Last I knew, Teleprompter was mad, made Obama thank himself and look like an idiot infront of the world.
Then Obama gets mad at Teleprompter and leaves him behind to wing it on Leno. Sticks both feet in his mouth at the same time….
I do hope he and Teleprompter have things squared away.

So the original TOTUS was fired after making Obama thank himself for being invited to White House.
I knew they had troubles between them….

good job Tapper. He’ll sign it without the cuts…all he cares about is the spending. “investments”= WASTED TAX DOLLARS
He’s such a snarky juvenile. Always blaming every one else.

Is it me or do the right wing spam bots seem to be commenting on the wrong article?

Mr. President: How can you lecture the citizens you serve about looking beyond short-term interests? In a time of our nation’s need and at great expense, you turned the vital Stimulus bill into a useless pinata of Party payoffs. Even Warren Buffett had to call you out.
You lost my good faith right there, and I now know to trust NOTHING that comes from your administration.

“Is it me or do the right wing spam bots seem to be commenting on the wrong article?”
This forum has become home to the right-wingers who repeatedly post the same debunked talking points or hate speech in every Tapper Blog. Difficult to find much thoughtful comment or debate around here anymore.

I find it really funny how the Republicans who have gotten us into this mess the last eight years, NOW have all the answers as to what we need to do to solve it. And how Obama is soooo wrong in whatever his tries to do to fix their mess. Why didn’t they stop it years ago, or solve it when their president was in office… Oh, ya, forgot.. Bush was one empty suite and so was his party…..

Obama is bankrupting this country and we get questions on “color” and American’s needing to “sacrifice”…….these reporters are lame.
Good job though to Jake! Obama backs away from middle class tax cut and you called him on it.

I worked hundred of hours for Obama’s campaign and now I wouldn’t cross the street to shake his hand.
He truly has morphed into a bunch of broken promises.

I think he just likes to pre-empt American Idol, because Simon said he was to busy to dine with him LOL
I would love to see this man answer a question, he dances around every issue until you forget what was asked…and he gets mad way to easy…

“The rest of us have a clue.”
The mighty 25 percenters who supported Bush no matter what and disapprove of Obama no matter what.

I am sick of Obama’s lies.

I saw change. Obama changed out his teleprompter for a humongous flat screen at the back of the room.
What did he say again about that middle class tax cut? huh?

Good question, Jake. You have in one short paragraph gotten to the heart of the Obama administration hypocrisy.
****************************************
Hardly. What Obama said was that the Tax cut was in the stimulus for the next two years. By then there will be two more budgets. He also said that there hasn’t been a Budget written yet so he hasn’t seen what is there..
What Jake wanted was speculation, now if he starts speculating what he will do, or what Congress will do before anyone does anything, he looses.
I thought the question was a dumb one to ask. It was meant to stir up rather then to inform.
If Congress gives him health care, a energy policy, education reform do you really think he would veto it? He would be nuts to do so.
Everything in politics and life take compromise. This is a lesson the GOP needs to learn. We can’t have everything we want so we have to have priorities.

Tonight was a very good sell that continues to pin down Republicans as marginalized members of the “party of no.”

ALL over the net.. OBama LIES, he is being SLAMMED by people that supported him

“I thought the question was a dumb one to ask. It was meant to stir up rather then to inform.”
That’s all the right-wing is capable of — stirring up. In case you haven’t seen ACORN’s bus trip to the homes of the rich and unscrupulous, check them out. The right-wing thinks they are the only ones capable of stirring, but they always stir the wrong pot. ACORN is showing us how to be “civil” in our stirs. Americans are mad as hell. The rich better figure out how to appease us, and soon.

I think Obama opened a lot of people’s eyes tonight. Unfortunately, not in a good way. Watch the stock market dive tomorrow.

O’ on fox leads with video of tappers question. Later applause with Rove, Tapper is just a GOOD reporter. Later “if more were like Jake Tapper”
No need to watch ABC anymore to see good reporting

I miss the answer?did u get one?
BTW! Where was his BFF?the teleprompter I mean

Wow, I’m more afraid today than I was yesterday! When someone can’t answer a question directly it REALLY makes me wonder what’s up. This man just continues to lie.

Guess all the republicans missed the pertinent part which is the tax cuts for the middle class happened in the stimulus part. Doesn’t that mean the middle class was looked after first? In addition, the 4 main goals of the budget are aimed at the middle class. It wasn’t called a “tax cut”, so right-wingers won’t understand it.

“In case you haven’t seen ACORN’s bus trip to the homes of the rich and unscrupulous, check them out.”
Okay with you then if the names and addresses of ACORN members get published and bus trips are organized to go “visit” them?

According to the election count (which I do not think was fraudulent), there are more of us than you. Think long and hard about that. No need to be afraid, we don’t do a lot of yapping and yelling. We’re civil people that progress. Try it some time.

“…Not only will that bill cleans up spiders, it will, down the road, within 3 to 4 years or longer, will systematically cleans up rats, garbage, and all sorts of things too.”, Mr. Obama would continue talking.

The charitable deduction question was what really showed his true colors.
No deduction for the evil top one percent, but that shouldn’t keep them from giving the same! Yeah right!
That sounds like Romer’s deficite projections!
Now the rich people’s $100 gift will be more equal to the middle class bus driver’s gift of $75, or some such nonsense.
Note to Obama–bottom line, charities are going to get less money.

“I am the current and ONLY hope for
America!”……….and we got the
ACORNS to prove it. You go, Obama, you
go. Keep hunkering down and defending
Geithner. Let Barney and Chris slip
on by…Rangell, no problem. Keep it
up, President. Pelosi, third in line
if you or Blivot Biden “pass on”….
KEEP IT UP! America gets stronger
every time you open your mouth.

Obama needs to resign. America can’t afford his
excessive spending and utter incompetence.
Our country is far more important than this poseur!

Why not have Michelle Bachman, Sara Palin, Eric Cantor, John Bohener, ‘W’ , Bobby Jindal write up the budget? They certainly know what to do, it’s been proven over time, like the last 8 years… bring back NEWT, yeah…better yet David Vittner can revive a certain segment of the economy all by himself… almost forgot Tom Delay, so trustworthy…..
Proven leaders all….

“ALL over the net.. OBama LIES, he is being SLAMMED by people that supported him”
I guess that explains why in a hideous recession, with two wars going on, his approval rating is still over 60%. 60% is high in times of prosperity. It’s a massive vote of confidence in a time of such disrepair. Get a grip.

we all are getting sucked into the mind-set that government “runs” the economy. What the man says about details are trivial. Wherever John Galt went, this why he left.

It’s refreshing to have a President that speaks english, can express himself in full reasoned sentences, doesn’t make decisions ‘from the gut’, knows what he’s talking about, can point out in detail the profound hypocrisy of the Republican party over the last 8 years, and actually passes legislation that he promised in his campaign..
and… can point out to ‘the media’ that they need to stop being stupid.
whoa… what a rad concept.
