No notes, no prompter, no chosen press to ask soft questions. This man is good

[greenbriar]

it is so nice to not cringe with every WTF answer

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. We elected an intelligent man!

Amazing.

About fucking time!

[wndycty]

2. He did read his opening statement off of a prompter. . .

. . .right in front of him under the camera he was looking into

[bbinacan]

3. So far he has said

nothing of substance.

[wndycty]

4. Thanks for sharing. . .

:kick:

[bbinacan]

29. Anytime

and you're quite welcome. He has been doing better as the Q&A have progressed.

[PopSixSquish]

9. Which Press Conference are You Watching?

You need to recalibrate your Flux Capacitor.

[kestrel91316]

16. It's all over your head, that's obvious. Run along now.

[bbinacan]

I see mommy let you have your computer back. Just sinking to your level.

[dionysus]

:rofl:

[bbinacan]

28. So you don't welcome dissent?

:eyes:

[elleng]

5. He has a list of questioners. 'Chosen press?'

.

[wndycty]

7. They do it to make sure the majors are not overlooked. . .it is something Bush and Clinton did. . .

. . .so lets not act like we are shocked.

[elleng]

12. Not shocked;

pointing out the fact.

[greenbriar]

8. he has a list of press there but he is not choosing them for easy questions

as nONE of these questions are easy

they are all trying to make Obama look like shit

[elleng]

14. They're trying to elicit information.

Its their job, and they may be doing it, or trying to.

[bbinacan]

6. I have one question after

he says we need to do this and that, I say and want to know HOW? Is that too much to ask?

[elleng]

22. No, but its something that has to be answered with detail

that can only be done in different fora.

[bbinacan]

10. Cut deficits in half?

How?

[bbinacan]

11. No chosen press?

Are you watching the same press conference I am. He started the Q&A by saying he had a list of reporters. Now he just asked where so and so was to ask a question.

[wndycty]

13. Are these softballs. . .you obviously think Obama is fucking up . . .

. . .tell us how you really feel.

[bbinacan]

15. I think I already did. n/t

[dionysus]

24. and what an epic fail it was too....

:rofl: @ you

[bbinacan]

27. He's doing much better now by

offering more specifics.

[MadMaddie]

17. So far the only reporter I liked was from the Mexican Press

The rest of the bastards are well bastards.

[elleng]

18. Makes health care reform central to budget issues

for future.

[elleng]

19. Like to know what I'm talking about before I speak!!!!

BRAVO!!!

[NatBurner]

21. now sit your ass down and stfu

love it

[rasputin1952]

25. The man has class...he's intelligent and articulate...

what a difference between this president, and his predecessor that could mangle, "thank you"...:)

[greatauntoftriplets]

30. His predecessor was always falling over the podium.

Big difference.

:D

[pink-o]

26. And a lot of reporters are asking follow-up questions!

When was the last time Dim Son let someone do that? Probably because even he, in his clueless bubble, knew the follow-up question would be: "What in fucking hell did you just say, you stupid idiot?

Or maybe: "Are you high?"

[spanone]

31. there were no softballs

[spanone]

32. dupe

[GeorgeGist]

33. As long as profit remains the bottom line ...

clothing the emperor is cosmetic change.
