Obama Press Conference on Foxnews
foxnews ^

Posted on 07/22/2008 7:36:22 AM PDT by ConservativeMan55

Obama is doing a HORRIBLE press conference.

A couple times I've wanted to fall asleep.

This guy is worse than McCain when he doesn't have a teleprompter.

Obama keeps saying uh.. uh yeah.

Several times he's "drawn a blank" and couldn't answer.

If the McCain people are watching this should be an ad pronto!

Thanks for starting this thread. I was beginning to think I was the only one enjoying this train wreck.

This guy clearly has no idea what he’s talking about.

Right now he’s even admitting he has several different plans and he’s not sure which one is his.

Unfortunately, Republicans (and by extension probably the McCain campaign staff) are notoriously slow to “get it” and take advantage like any Democrat would.

McCain was pretty quick on the draw with the New York Times thing.

McCain wrote an Op-ed on Thursday. Friday the New York Times rejected it.

Saturday Rush, Drudge and others were given the story.

Yes, all of those “ahs” remind me of Ted Turner.

Now there was a king of the AHs.

It’s a habit that could bore a hole in your head...ah.

Oh there are many parts of this press conference that can, should and will make YouTube.

I can safely say, Barack Obama is without peer.

McCain is a lost cause in my book, he is too interested in playing nice and not offending anyone.

Someone in obama's camp is going to get thrown under the bus.

To schedule this presser and hour BEFORE Rush's show begins.

There is a lot of AH’s and UH’s.

It almost appears like he might be under the influence of a foreign substance.

Kevin not sure about McCain playing nice, since the NYT's rejected his column.

It is kind of ironic that he is seeing the results of his own actions. (McCain/Feingold)

Will McCain be given equal time for a presser today? (That is a joke, of course).

Did he just say Israel would continue to be a friend to Israel under both an Obama and McCain administration? I could swear I heard him say that not once, but twice.

He looks, acts and talks like a little kid playacting at being president.

Notice how many times he sounds like he’s asking a question? His inflection when speaking has numerous “upraised tones and it’s maddening?.............like that

uh uh, Iraq is more secure, but so what, success is defined differently by me, money wasted by the generals, when economy needs it...uh uh ahhh..goal is to get combat troops out of Iraq and win in Afghanistan. I want to win there and lose in Iraq because uhh uhhh ahhh I can't be seen as a flip-flopper for wanting to lose this war.

Mics not on questioners so could only hear BO.
