Gregory said Obama is trying to once again become the "face" of the Health Care Debate instead of the Town Hall Meetings that have seized the spotlight in recent weeks. Gregory also said Obama has not answered the question of how they can pay for their massive health plan without raising taxes. . . . . . (Watch Video)

No surprise Meet The Press’s ratings have tanked since he took over as host.

Obama thinks he can always seize control of an issue by appearing on TV and overwhelming adversaries with his charm. Since he’s on TV a couple of times a day, I doubt there’s much exposure he can add.

If only the networks would give Obama a one-hour infomercial...no, i guess he tried that already...maybe if Obama did a prime time press conference...nope, tried that too....How about do some nationally televised townhalls...nope, that didn’t work....OK, let’s go on some obscure talk show.....yeah, that’ll work!!!

Maybe Obama could try letting Americans discuss their concerns without having to worry about being turned over to the White House gestapo...

Yuck.

That is an insult to bodice ripping novels. At least the novels are capable of providing entertainment.

Sorry, I don’t think that’ll happen. Bambi thinks “dialogue” is a step by step process that should work thusly:

1) He proposes something insane
2) You ask him to explain
3) He explains, “Shut up!”
4) You shut up.

Any other behavior on your part is threatening.

Sorry! My bad!

So is Bambi. For example, I am sure the look on his face when he loses his DemocRat majority next year will be VERY entertaining. Nearly as entertaining as the expression on his face when Sarah Palin kicks his butt in ‘12.
