SWAGGA time: Obama’s 100 day toast to himself

Open thread for all of you intrepid rightwing extremists with strong enough stomachs to endure President Obama’s 100-day television extravaganza this evening.
I will be drinking SWAGGA juice and waving my tea bag at the television set.
***
Fun fact: A reporter for the financially ailing New York Times gloats that the Fishwrap of Record has made $2 million off of Obama-themed merchandise.
Every Obama story by the Times should include this financial disclosure. Same for any other national paper that has been hawking Obama gear since Nov. 4, 2008.
***
AP’s Jennifer Obama-lovin’ Loven gets the first question. Should we close the border to deal with (bleep) flu? Obama says not now. But they are readying resources on border. He leaves the door open in case of a worse case scenario.
Repeats several times that people need to wash their hands.
Reminds me of how people mocked Bush for recommending to Obama that he use hand sanitizer.
***
Well, now. After the left-wing bloggers went bananas trying to blame the GOP for underfunding flu pandemic programs, Obama just praised the GOP for working on Tamiflu stockpiles that he inherited.
***
Gag. NYTimes reporter Jeff Zeleny asks what has “surprised, troubled, enchanted, humbled” Obama the most since his presidency began. Obama gets out his pen to write it all down. Where’s the teleprompter when you need it?

I will be listening to Mark Levin’s broadcast of the news conference, mocking the snot of Obama.
With any luck, I will be asleep. But, I will wave my tea bag with gusto. It’s symbolizes the true respect Democrats deserve.
(Correction) … the snot out of Obama.
I don’t want to watch this turd.
Change the name from Swine flu to H1N1 -presto! Problem sovled – no more Swine flu
I just hope the prompter doesn’t go out, it so embarrassing when there is so much dead air.
I am great but not good enough. It will take thousands of hundreds of days to fix this mess caused by Boooosh. I will authorize billions to take care of every problem. Throw money at it.
What was that teleprompter? Spending, inflation. Who cares. I am cool. I have done everything but will continue to work hard for the American people.
“Akin to closing the barn door after the horses get out” ….
I thought the whole idea was to not let the horses get out in the first place.
let’s do some Bush bashing….
The “dead air” is what’s coming out of Obama’s mouth. What a narcissistic, self-aggrandizing bag of…wind ol’ Barry is; but he’s got the SWAGGA.
On the way home after picking up my son from preschool a dj on the radio was talking about the upcoming Obama speech and made a comment about how ironic it was that it was going to preempt the tv. show “Tell Me Lies” in some areas. How fitting! Funny thing is, I don’t think this radio station is particularly conservative.
searching for ah…. ah……….ah…….ah……and…..ah cogent sentence….
I started listening and I had to stop. I just want him to STFU!! He is such an egomaniac. Big government can take care of everything. We have introduced legislation for….fill in the blank. Government..big, bigger, BIGGEST, HUGE!!Obama and Pelosi…get out of my life! Seriously, I am reaching a breaking point here. We do not need these people and their intrusion. Just get back to what you were hired to do…protect the Constitution and keep us safe. The rest of it is just damaging this great country!!
Obama: Close your school to prevent flu. I am cool. Did my job.
Teleprompter: For how long? Week? month? Won’t that mess things up?
Obama: Don’t answer that. Use double speak. (read 2 teleprompters at once.)
True – unless you are a Democrat. In which case, you would let the horses get out to prove that President Bush was completely at fault and the only way to close the barn door is to print a Trillion or so dollars you don’t have and give them to your buddies.
Sorry, you asked a genuine question and I felt it deserved a genuine answer..
Preplanned questions with preselected questioners. Got it. This man is a hip moron.
I have put on my local FOX channel in solidarity with them saying NO to BO!! I don’t even watch the show they are running, but tonight it is my favorite.
Stopping torture has taken away the justification Al Qaeda has for attacking us. What? Do you seroiusly not know why they are attacking us. Hint: it spelled K-O-R-A-N. Buy a clue idgit.
Let me know if he says anything coherent or intelligent. Otherwise, I am going back to my book.
You’ll have to fit the bill, T-bone. He’s government ya know.
According to tvguide.com, Fox is showing something called “Lie to Me.”
Appropriate name for something going up against Obama.
Personally, I would rather watch “Barney Meets the Teletubbies” than watch B.O.
Pakistan Army understands the danger.
No they don’t. Are you kidding me?
But Obama’s teleprompter said it with authority
Excuse me…I need to go wash my hands. I just sneezed into my elbow.
I mean foot the bill. DUH!
Lie to Me. That’s what I meant. Gosh it’s only Wed. and I’m losing my mind. Aughhhh
Specter is an opportunist – period!
“I think highly of Arlen Spector”
Definite proof Obama is an idiot.
So he doesn’t expect Benedict Arlen Sphincter to agree with him on everything. But when he doesn’t, Big Brother will make note of it and be sure to re-educate him in the Obama way of doing things. God help him.
Ah…choo! Sorry, I am not feeling very well. It can’t be the swine flu. I had cow for dinner.
“I’m reaching out to Republicans is genuine”
Of course, that means you need to come to my view not vice versa but it’s genuine. I define bipartisanship because Americans rejected you.
Obama wants to reduce unwanted pregnancies. Talk about government intrusion! Maybe put a camera in everyone’s bedroom and in the back seat of every auto made in the government-owned green cars?
What kind of question is that?
Obama’s definition of bipartisan…tell me what you think and I will tell you where you are wrong and then will do it my way. Thank you for your support.
Ah searching for ah…. ah……….ah…….ah……and…..ah cogent sentence….
I’m sorry…I can’t do this any more. I’m going for a walk.
That was a really good embarassing question! Made him look like a dolt.
Presidency is powerful but there are a lot of power centers. I can’t push button and get bankers to do what I want.
Thank God.
This is painful………
very
O.K. I’m still here. He just said “economic growth from the bottom up”. Can this guy get any stupider?? That has never worked, never will work, and it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Get your head out of your a$$ Mr. Pres.
I’ve never seen anyone who so loved the sound of his own voice.
Doesn’t this guy EVER shut up?
Every day with his nonsense…
Bottom up – a$$
hmmm, now I see where he gets it.
Is he losing his cool? He looks like he’s sweating. Do Gods sweat?
Betcha all those young “po” folk who voted for him don’t understand a word he is saying….
Now let me tell you ,as a guy who never ran anything, how the auto business works.
Of course! Why didn’t I think of that??
Betcha they didn’t even watch this sorry mess…
Where is everyone tonight? Chap? Rags? David? Pasadena? lgm? What the heck? Did everyone skip the big event tonight? Are we the only brave ones?
Tried to do theee driinkking gammmme off takiiing a ddrinnnk evvvery tymmme bammbi saiiid uhhh, gatttto gooo.
Sweating in front of the natives who think you are a god will get you eaten.
I know it’s true. I saw it in the movies.
Roller derby is on tonight! That’s where they are!!!
They all know there is nothing good to say about the 1st 100 days so they don’t want to participate in the analysis.
An entire hour and he never answered a single question. Great job odumbo.
Good night.
Wash your hands, inflate your tires. Grand ideas for a troubled time. That’s our man Oboingo.
Let me emulate.
Obama was calm, cool, and collected. He made perfect sense on every issue, made no mistakes, and is so awesome that my drool cup spilled over. I am so high on his performance and I need to go to Daily KOS and do some Obama licking. Man, is he awesome. Just wow man.
Whoops, almost forgot. And Boosh caused all the problems in the world and Obama is trying to fix them and it will take a long time and we need to be patient, and everyone who disagrees is a right wing wacko that probably was in the military and has a gun and is dangerous and life is hard because of Boosh but Obama is flawless.
Lie to Me is a great show.
Obama going “blah, blah, blah, blah”; eh, not so great.
One more thought before I hit the hay (a little under the weather this evening)…is it just my imagination, or did Obama not give a complete direct answer to any of the questions? Just think about it. He was vague, shifty, wishy-washy…etc. This man is a phoney baloney. There is nothing under that suit. Empty. He is a shill for George Soros and I think perhaps Soros is starting to wonder if he made a huge mistake.
Now, I must go to bed. Hope I don’t have the flu. Seriously.
He did remind me of the authourity figures in Charlie Brown. Blah, Blah, Blah. Not sure what his teleprompter was really saying because it was so non sensical.
“Women are in a better position to decide abortion than the president”. hmmm.
Read: Women can better decide who lives and who dies than the God/President.
What is really getting tired is his habit of framing all his answers in a way that distances him from responsibility. He is always dealing with problems he inherited, even the solutions being criticized he inherited.
It’s like he just happened to be walking by when the country asked him to help out and out of the goodness of his heart, he agreed to try his best… but no guarantees.
I chose to waterboard myself tonight. I’ll catch the highlights tomorrow…
I think I will go and beerboard myself right now. Maybe later, I might give up some secrets, although they may not be characterized as intelligence.
“All those people in NY down on their knees when I buzzed them the other day.”
Kudos to you all who watched this farce. I am so sick of listening to this empty suit. I keep wanting to slap him across the back and say, “out with it man!” It’s like listening one of my kids give an excuse why they didn’t do their chores. I thought Obama was going to end “goverment sponsored torture”, yet he’s constantly giving speeches and making us listen to him.
Speaking of torture, how about having our enemies sit through one of these press conferences. Obama just tortured me. I guess torture has many levels.
Could not watch the Obama circus tonight. Sort of depressed after learning I might need eye surgery. Hope I can get it scheduled before the glorious one decides I am too old (59)and not worth it. I heard today that Canada, with a population of 30 million people and national health care, has 5 million of its citizens on a waiting list to be assigned a primary care doctor.
re: NYT … made $2 million off of Obama-themed merchandise.
That will just about pay for Little Pinch’s bonus this year, ya?
I’m sure Obama takes dollops of hand sanitizer from his personal aide, and he also takes moist or hot towels from the White House waiting staff.
But they all have free national health insurance.
On a serious note, sorry to see you need the operation, best of luck with a quick recovery.
You folks on here that can actually watch this dunce have got more stomach than I. I can’t stand the site of him or his voice and only 1360 days to go tho, ahhh that feels better knowing that’s all.
Lie to Me was on every network tonight.
He’s leaving the
borderdoor open (HA! that’s a knee-slapper, Barry!) in case of a worse case scenario? If he closed it now, we might avoid a worse case scenario….but then we wouldn’t have to close the border…but what about a worse case scenario when we open it again…close it again…yeah, his head probably ’bout exploded following Janet Napolitano’s logic.And for the next four years.
Hey, I knew I couldn’t watch Obama lie to me for an hour, so I watched the real professionals — “Lie to Me” on Fox.
Sorry guys but I don’t have enough intestinal fortitude to watch the Farcical Fascist spin his holier-than-thou spiel.
Hubby is outta town so I’m indulging in a little ice cream (I swear this is the last time!) and watching Bill O’Reilly instead. Dennis Miller’s take is priceless. O’Reilly’s post-Obummer self-adulation, self-congratulatory me me me press conference wrap up critique was a bit weak.
Did any of you catch the part about how “enchanted” (was that the word?) with the military he was? Well, a majority of military members, vets and military spouses/families aren’t enchanted with you.
Oh, and thanks Teleprompter Prez and your bootlicker buddy Gates for undercutting the military. I’m sure that will pay off when all those planes break down and there’s none to replace them. Hell, better yet, let’s not modernize the military at all since we wouldn’t want to counterbalance a burgeoning Chinese military.
Nah- you just be content being a cool prez to your sychophantic fans.
Open thread? Rightwing extremists? You know, the lawmakers in Massachusets in 1672 were far Rightwing extremists.
The 1672 General Laws and Liberties of the Massachusets Colony:
Those were the days when man’s laws in Massachusets lined up with God’s laws, and specifically cited the Biblical reference for man’s laws.
Again, they were far Rightwing extremists.
Today, it’s almost 180 degrees the other way, with liberal judges in Massachusets saying gays are allowed to marry.
It was once politically correct to be Biblically correct.
Now it seems politically correct to do the exact opposite.
Thanks.
I watched the recaps on Fox. You can tell that Obama is not used to criticism. It is also a juvenile characteristic of his that he absolutely has to run down Fox News and the Tea Party events, personally. Any other president would probably not even have mentioned it.
100 days of “emergencies” and “crisis”. I wonder, once the swine flu farce is over with, what new “emergency” and “crisis” will come out. All I see is a government that has planned to “crisis” this country right out of our liberties and freedoms. It’s right out of the totalitarian guidebook. Create an enemy, divert the public’s attention to it, and away from you, then pass laws (to protect the public) that take away their liberty. When the public wakes up to this policy, it’s already too late. By the way, where is the panic over the 36,000 people that died from flu last year? It’s old news and not enough to cause a “crisis/panic” that enables the government to “act”. Here’s a new one, Obama. Most rodents, in the western states, are still infected from bubonic plague (stemming from the S.F. plague outbreaks). 2 people got sick last year. “OMG, everyone panic!”
Sigh!!!! How many more days do we have to put up with this question evader, lying, arrogant, so full of himself, idiot???
The mere sound of his voice (or it may be the teleprompter speaking) on TV causes me to reach for the remote. What a god awful mistake America made!!!~
I don’t watch that guy on TV. He’s not my president. He’s the leader of the leftist statists.
But I did happen to see John “The Moocher” Kerry on with Greta Van Susteren. He, like Obama, blamed all of the problems in Afghanistan and Pakistan on Bush. And if Obama fails in these two places, it’s Bush’s fault, not Obama’s. Yup. That’s what he said.
I tried to watch it, but I couldn’t. Turns out my stomach isn’t as strong as I thought it was. I’m surprised how much I dislike and distrust the bamster. He’s nothing I hoped he would be and everything I feared.
Odumba doing rap in 3…2..1…
picture this: Odumba with a stupid looking ball cap, flat bill to the side. Suit pants to his knees..oversize basketball shoes with the tongue flap out and laces untied. Swaggering across the White House lawn. Oh yea! that’s our prez. Why didn’t they decide on a pit bull again?
At the moment I do not have internet access where I am staying, so I can’t post at night. And in any case I was not in to watch the program.
However, from all indications, it sounds like Obama was pretty calm cool and collected throughout the whole thing. This is especially impressive considering the number of problems he has inherited from the previous administration. Its going to take a while for him to fix all of them, so maybe just a little bit of patience from the public and media is warranted.
I didn’t watch – what’s the point? It would just make me angry. I went to the gym instead.
It just blows my mind how these fools still don’t realize they’re being razzle-dazzled. That’s probably what angers me the most.
Chapoutier – that’s my point. Yes, he’s calm and cool, handsome and eloquently reads from a teleprompter, but where’s the substance? I think it was the Rasmussen poll that showed a high approval rating for him as President, but not so much for his policies. He is very good at distancing himself from unpopular decisions – normally blaming the previous administration for them. He appeals to people’s emotional and aesthetic senses. Most of what I read in terms of his accolades amounts to “He’s doing a wonderful job at making everything sound really great. And he looks so good whilst doing it.”
Of course he was calm cool and collected. He had the whole event controlled and staged and he was completely boring because of it. No substance, he just dronned on and said nothing..typical for him. You think he should get some attaboys because he was calm? Besides, unless he’s in front of a camera, he couldn’t care less what goes on outside of his ivory tower
You know, you can make it through these Obama TV spectacles if you just take time to prepare with these simple steps:
1) Drink a 5th of whiskey BEFORE you turn on the TV
2) Turn down the lights in the room
3) Find a comfortable chair
4) Throw the remote control as far as possible
5) Close your eye and repeat, “Only 1360 more days. Only 1360 more days. Only 1360 more days…”
I couldn’t see the live
performancespeech, but I did catch the Vodkapundit’s play by play. Good stuff!Thank you Micelle, for having the fortitude for watching this garbage so that some of the rest of us can continue living our real lives instead.
lil bHo reminds me of that turd eating Persian scumbag in “300″ who thought he was a “god”.
anyways…bipartisan…try this “buy partisan”….
is it just me or does lil bHo look like he walks with a Lays Mesquite Barbecue chip stuck in the cleft of his nether parts? what is with this swagga….. the Klingon walks like she is an overfed duck….. did u see the back view of that black frock she wore to see the Queen? triangle shaped buffoon….
how low is the standard for “cool” among the Left if they admire this know-nothing so much for his cool? and Sean Penn called him “elegant”?
is it all the chronic they be smokin?
i wont be watching this d-bag tonite. i am going to be gardening. stays light til about 830 these days (PST). hopefully it will be over. 3 prime time broadcasts since he took office….is this unheard of?
anyways…he’ll crow about all of his achievements…. what are they again? seems like it will be a big spin move.
will he talk about Israel and how he will stand against them as they defend their right to exist and refuse the Palestinian genocidal “right of return”?
a pox be upon him. he’s already crapped in the bed big enough to ensure he doesnt get re-elected…all those middle class dems are gonna lose their entrails when they see their tax bills. ROFLMAO stupid is as stupid does.
Bear1909 out.
President BO gives me the courage to speak out on issues of race and here I go, “BO is a thug N-word, and is and will be an embarrassment to black Americans forever. He is the typical crooked black politician, racist to the core, always ready to betray his fellow black Americans, and a traitor at heart.” Of course, white liberal journalists are fawning over him as they see their newspapers failing and are openly looking for a job with the BO administration. They particularly like blacks who sell out poor black Americans. With all the journalist adoration, BO will soon go psychotic, a la Howard Hughes, since humans don’t do very well completely surrounded not just by, “yes men,” but worse surrounded by, “yes Jesus,” zealots. It is going to get very ugly.
Chap – please, don’t use the “inherited” bulls— line. Congress controls the spending of money, NOT former President Bush. In fact, Mr. Bush reminded Congress 17 times that there were going to be problems with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, and he was ridiculed horribly in the press and by Congressional Democrats. So, spare me, that crap line. Want to blame somebody? You need to take a long hard look at the democrats and the republicans in Congress. But, BHO comes off as though he is going to save the world and he does it by constantly blaming Republicans (never Democrats). IMO, Obingo is and always has been, an empty suit.
From a Maureen Dowd column May 4, 2003 -
He flashed that famous all-American grin as he swaggered around the deck of the aircraft carrier in his olive flight suit, ejection harness between his legs, helmet tucked under his arm, awestruck crew crowding around. Maverick was back, cooler and hotter than ever, throttling to the max with joystick politics.
Others always assign characterization. Big deal.
First Skirt,
Oh boy. Go back and reread some of the comments before my initial post. I thought I was being obvious, but apparently not.
Nope….apparently not. Just hearing all you libs sprouting the “party line”–Bush’s fault, Bush’s fault…ad nauseum. Sick of it. When do you guys start “blaming” Pelosi, Reid, etc..?
