What you’re talking about so far for Wednesday Night is not going to create any new jobs.
Sadly, this interview reminds me of every single Barack Obama interview.
Note that although he now distances himself from what the Democrats did with health care… he never promised to veto it if it contained any backroom deals… nope, he pushed for them to pass it.
If he really detested the back-room deals, he’d have demanded they be taken out.

Back room deals you say…..LMAO…He’s the one and the only one who put those deals in place to begin with! The closed door meetings were between him, Pelousy, and Reid…But I guess that must be Bush’s fault as well.

The One is not even Caesar. The Caesars could deliver bread and circuses. Obama cannot even deliver on a campaign promise!
NormanF on January 27, 2010 at 12:54 pm
LMAO – bet you this is what the State of the Union speach will sound like tonight. Odopey cannot possibly spin the current SOTU to make the general populace believe that everything is OK. Yeah, I know he can, but he would have to lie. Nothing new for these weasels.

As it happens, there’s another major speech today (going on as I write) by Steve Jobs introducing Apple’s new iPad. The Oregonian attempts to compare and contrast these two leaders. One delivers. The other, not so much…

Drinking contest folks!
Take a drink when Obama says…….
1) Let me be clear
2) Make no mistake
Do this only if you do not have to work on Thursday.

Big Ears has gotten away with saying whatever his audience wants to hear for far too long.
Me thinks the jig is up.
Sam Adams on January 27, 2010 at 1:35 pm
Hey Roger….I put that thought of that drinking game and put onmy Facebook Page last night (Well around 3AM). I also mentioned if you REALLY want to get sloshed fast just drink every time The One says “I”.
And does The ONE laugh because he’s nervous, arrogant or because he is laughing at himself because he is truly a joke?

CNN has asked various political types to give Obama “advice” for tonights State of the Union speech..Some are urging Obama to take a stand and come out “fighting” in full Leftist tilt. Others are advising Obama that now is his opportunity to admit to making mistakes and swing back to being moderate. I suspect that Obama’s speech will attempt to do both — portions of his speech will be ultra-left, while others will be “moderate” (make some appeal to blue-dog Democrats.) The net result will be a series of confusing self-refuting, multiple and mutual contradictions. (or, to put a “happy spin” on it — everyone will leave “happy” — having heard just what they want to hear.)

Do the handlers drug Obongo?
DS_ROCKS! on January 27, 2010 at 2:41 pm
Drinking game, yes. I will have to add Roger’s “make no mistake” to my list that I sent to friends earlier today:
1) Let me be clear (including “let’s be clear”)
2) Whole host of….
3) …”fight for you”
4) …”problems we inherited…” Feel free to insert economy, unemployment, et al to replace the word problems. In other words, anything that blames Bush.
What is not included: Me, me, me, me, me, I, I, I, I, I. Since he loves to make everything about him, the bottle would be empty within minutes.
Let the tallying (drinking) begin!

A word of warning to those inclined to the “drinking game”. Given Obama’s fondness for these tropes, I urge you to take only small sips if you want to wake up tomorrow morning.
Raymond in DC on January 27, 2010 at 3:33 pm
And you never know; maybe there will be a Clintonian type scandal here. Look what one kiss did (in combination of course with his usual lack of articulation). You have to sympathize with the guy though. It can’t be easy to come home to Michelle every night.

“And the Liberals complained because Bush pronounced Nuclear differently than they did….unreal”
Actually,it was Jimmy Carter who originally pronounced it that way. But,as usual, because he’s Leftist, he never gets mocked for it.
Phineas on January 27, 2010 at 7:56 pm
But obviously Bush mispronounced ‘nuclear’ on purpose. Does anyone really think that with all his advisors, no one would have told him the correct pronunciation during his eight-year presidency? He deliberately mispronounced it to show his contempt for the liberal elite. No doubt about it.
Little Al on January 27, 2010 at 8:22 pm
The radio station I listen to in my car is carrying the latest Obama speech. In the time it took me to move my car so I can shovel some snow I must have heard “I”, “me” & “my” about seven times. Gee it’s a good thing the guy’s not a self-centered ego-maniac, right? Say, since he likes to point the finger so much maybey he’s finally putting the blame where it belongs! Yeah, and pigs will fly…
I’m glad it’s not part of the drinking game. I’d have to call in dead. 😉
theShadow on January 27, 2010 at 10:45 pm
His handlers chose “Obama” because – for the coming inevitable societal showdown – they needed a numbskull in the Oval whose only real skill is to pick a fight – with just about everybody, including his own ‘hoodies. The warning in the Youtube video “America Rising” … was totally ignored. So be it. His call, or rather, his Chicago handlers’ call… Okay then, we note that across history, freedom comes when the government is afraid of the ppl, not the other way around. Government, be very afraid, the ppl are about to get their freedom back.

What a waste of precious time, they hope to distract us so we can’t figure out their agenda.
Commies are Stupid on January 28, 2010 at 9:07 am
“Nucular” is a regional pronunciation. I heard Bush say the word new and the word clear. So there.
smudge on January 28, 2010 at 11:34 am
Iam hoping that impeachment will be the next move.
In God We Trust!

I do tons of number gathering for these types of games because I think that history can give us an idea of what may happen in the future. As you know it may be hard to decipher the winning team in professional football. This is the main reason why I like using statistics for basketball.

I realize that was pieced together, but that is exactly why the man needs a teleprompter to speak to a class of 6th graders. There is also a photo of obumbo over at theobamafile that shows him speaking to his own samll group of people with the teleprompters there. I’m sure there’s also a teleprompter hanging over the head board in the couple’s bedroom.
And the liberals complained because George Bush pronounced Nuclear differently then they did……Unreal.
