Ed Schultz gives Obama an "A" for his performance today and thinks this plays to his strength!
Schultz loved how Obama took responsibility today, how he chose to take questions, and how Cantor was DREAMING when he said that this admin. is in disarray. I love Ed Schultz!

6. He didn't mean it in a negative way. Obama took questions from the press.
Edited on Wed Mar-18-09 05:27 PM by jenmito
He did well. We know what he meant.

8. How refreshing...to hear
someone give Obama some credit instead of the endless sniping like a bunch of rabid jackals.

11. Good point! Not ONE person gave him CREDIT for taking questions when he didn't have to and
wasn't scheduled to. And then he took responsibility for it?!

12. There are few things I respect more than a person acknowledging something's fucked up...
Edited on Wed Mar-18-09 05:31 PM by BlooInBloo
and says they'll take the hit for it (whether or not it was actually them that did it), and immediately take steps to correct said fuck up.

EDIT: What's fucking pathetic is people who treat such an acknowledgment as an admission of weakness, and a I-knew-he-sucked thing. It's a typical American trait, tied up closely with the utter inability for Americans to admit they've made a mistake.

26. Not. That's been an American trait for at least the last 20 years.

EDIT: bush people might have taken it to new levels, but in no world did they *invent* it.

30. Ed's a good guy. Sometimes he disagrees with Obama; he's
a straight talker, not a butt-kisser.
