Who said you can't make fun of Obama?
I did like the teleprompter goof where he introduced himself not too long ago.
Did you see his interview on 60 minutes last night? He did great without his teleprompter. He had a huge grin when AIG bonuses were mentioned and laughed out loud on several other questions where it was completely and clearly wrong to laugh. Hey, this guy's literally laughing at the US!! I guess he should have had a teleprompter instead of trying to "wing it" as he was definitely not good at answering questions. And he blinked his eyes so much (a proven gesture of lying) that the deceit was just oozing out of the TV about his non sincerity of what he was talking about.
He should really have been a comedian and not the POTUS. And even as a comedian he would have had an act that consisted of umma ummma ummma, uh uh uh uh uh and that would have been his better material.
So twinkie... One minute he's a bore and never smiles? The next he smiles too much and laughs when he shouldn't? He can't win really.
I never said he was a bore and didn't smile, but sure, I'll say that he is a bore. I said the man kept laughing at inappropriate times and at inapppropriate topics. Like why would he express a HUGE grin when asked about the AIG bonuses? What's to smile about that topic let alone laugh about it? I don't think the huge AIG bonuses are laugh material considering the money comes from the US Taxpayer's pockets.
Uh, yeah, you sure did call him a bore. Just here.

But I agree. AIG Bonuses are no laughing matter. I like the fact he is trying to put a cap on them. Many others here don't. I see Goldman Sachs are even handing there TARP money back. Good PR exercise.
Yes, Skell, I know I called him a bore on another thread. I'll call him a bore again if it will make you happy.
Obama is a bore.
Happy now?
I never said he didn't smile though.
Oh, yes, before I forget Skell...
How about after Obama finishes wrecking the US, how about we send him over there to Australia so he can wreck your economy and impose weird laws on your country for the next 4 years? Well, how about it. Then you could say you are an official Obot or Obamatron. Right now you're just an Obot want to be. Well?
Im certainly no Obot. He's yet to convince me. Ill admit though that after the 8 years of Bush I was keen to see an Obama victory over McCain.
As far as the rest of the world is concerned Bush's admin was a complete failure. Particularly unpopular was his war in Iraq, Gitmo and the mistreatment of prisoners, economic mismanagement and just general bad policies. I actually liked the guy. He had a close relationship with our PM. He had a sense of humour and I have heard first hand he is a gentleman (my very good mate was head of his NSW Police Force detail for APEC and said he was the most polite and warm leader he had ever come across).
I don't want Obama down here. But I do want him to succeed for the best interests of us all. Unlike many of you I'm not wishing failure upon him.
Decisions made in the US directly affect us down under here which is why I take an interest. You are one our biggest allies and sometimes unfortunately we follow your lead. So if you fail, ultimately we fail. I don't want that!
P.S. Your economy was wrecked well and truly before Obama came into power.
Screw aig.
Why aren't we looking at freddie and fannie?
Its all smoke and mirrors.
And tom, don't forget his "punch drunk" moment on 60 Minutes...
I hear the teleprompter used last night was the size of a stadium scoreboard.
This week he met briefly (I'm told) with former President Jimmy Carter... no doubt to consult on how to make the best of his Kumbaya video to jihadists that was interpretted as an overwhelming desire to join the brotherhood of dhimmi.
He also met with former Soviet boss Mikhail Gorbachev to determine how best to reset relations with Putin. Gorby of course is remembered for trying and failing to put a goody feelly face on Soviet totalitarianism in an effort to preserve it .
He ,like Carter were failures so of course it makes sense that the President would seek their council.
Hello righty's:
Couple things...
I don't get your thing about how Obama speaks... Really, since the dufus YOU elected din't unnerstand the local tongue very well.
The next thing is your ability to tell how bad he's doing after only 56 days... Actually, you don't really HAVE that ability. The ability you have is to read the emails sent out by the limp dude and his minions.
You're not even making a pretense of bi-partisanship, and haven't since he was elected... Yet, you have NO problem putting him down for not being bi-partisan and enacting Republican proposals...
Like I've said before, you righty's are silly.

Yes I know the game. While he plunges in with an urgency to get as much done as he can in his 1st 100 days ;we are to sit mute and not comment on his performance. I think he has done a lot of damage in his time and I will not be silenced .
I don't care about bi-partisanship at all except for the contradictions between his performance and his rhetoric. I'd be honestly happier if he all along said things like "I have the political capital and intend to use it" . That at least would be honest.
Instead he says that if the Republicans in Congess don't walk in goose step with his proposed budget the Dems will stifle debate and the amending process ,and pass his budget by a 'reconsiliation' vote .
Hello again, tom:
Couple things.
We have some problems in this country. The problems are health care, education, and energy. They're what brought us to THIS brink.
Oh, these aren't new problems. We've had 'em for quite a while... But, nobody wanted to deal with 'em because they're too hard... So, they ignored them...
Guess what?? When you ignore the future, the future bites you on the a$$. We've been bitten. We need somebody to fix those things. Obama IS. It's clear, that you guys are going to to your best to stop him. HE is going to to his best to stop YOU from stopping HIM, and if he can do it with a vote of "reconsiliation", then I'm all for it.
Now, I may NOT agree with HOW he's going to fix it. But, I get that if it DOESN'T get fixed, we're done.

Your right there koolaid sipper. Health care is in disarray. Why? How about too many illegals coming here and getting free care at our expense. Or how about all the pregnant illegals that come across the border to have a baby in the USA and then get grandfathered in?
Now, on to education. Who is it that stripped the children of DC's rights to get educated where they could actually get taught? Yup, Your dems in congress protecting the teachers unions! Why is it so hard to get rid in incompetent teachers? Why is it so difficult to teach children? Simple really, union protectionism and illegals. I have nothing against immigration if it is done legally, but the illegals streaming across our borders daily is a threat to our sovereignty as a nation.
Again, I have to ask you who is it that has refused to site or allow new refineries, or exploration for oil,gas, and coal? Which party is pandering to the environmental movement to garner the vote?
Hello again, 450:
While we don't agree on the causes, we DO agree that there needs to be a fix.
I'm not a Democrat. I HATE Democrats. I'm not a Republican. I HATE Republicans.
If Obama fixes it like a partisan, then I'm going to HATE him too, cause it ain't fixed.
But, I'm willing to let him try to fix 'em. You aren't.

Tom is right. After 8 years of non-stop whining about every move Bush made we're supposed to shut up because it's only 56 days in and "we have some problems in this country." Seems to me that now is exactly the time to make my views known before the problems are compounded and my country is no longer recognizable.
Secondly, to my knowledge no one ever held Bush up as a great orator. Obama on the other hand, has been described as “silver-tongued,” a man whose words “elevate.” Oprah described him as “an evolved leader” with “an ear for eloquence and a Tongue dipped in the Unvarnished Truth." Face it, without his teleprompter he has a heck of a time living up to his Messianic billing. Our criticism of his bumbles is more a reflection on the mind-numbingly ignorant devotion of his followers than it is the man himself.
Lastly, I’ve read our newspaper virtually every day since I was 18 - al-AP has been my primary news source for 30 years now. Nevertheless, all these other “minions” – left, right and otherwise - are useful as they have the time and resources to monitor happenings all over and bring them to our attention. But leave it to you guys to be critical of taking advantage of available resources. That’s silly.
Bush started the economic decline of this country. It was like a snowball rolling downhill.
Obama in 56 days has turned that snowball into a full fledged avalanche.
