Live Thread: Obama Press Conference 12:45 P.M. EDT 5/27/10
Thursday, May 27, 2010 | Kristinn

Whoopee!

The last time Obama had a formal press conference was the infamous 'cops acted stupidly' one on July 22, 2009.

He'll be taking questions starting (around) 12:45 p.m. EDT.

The Nation waits....

He got word that the top kill of the oil leak worked.. of course he’s going to be front and center to claim success and how he was all over this from the beginning.

Notice how it isn't a prime-time presser. I smell a set-up.

Maybe he’ll announce that the Top Kill is working so well, they are going to start using it on themselves.

Will ANY of them ask BO why he went on vacation in the Carolinas, took a couple of golf games in, and did a fundraiser while the Louisiana coastline was being assaulted by the oil leak from one of his main foreign-nation campaign contributors?

Should we take bets on who gets the first question? I say it will be Chuck Todd or the brainless Twinkie who co-anchors with him on MSNBC.

” I say it will be Chuck Todd or the brainless Twinkie who co-anchors with him on MSNBC. “

Good choices.
But, I’ll wager April Ryan from Urban Radio Networks.
Any side bets on how often he breaks into that bizarre and inappropriate ear to ear enormous smile which he trots out whenever he feels uncomfortable ?
He wrote in Dreams ( pge 94 ) that using the big smile was an
effective “ tactic “ he had perfected to disguise
his anger and fool people.
It always works with the White House Press Corps poodles.

Chuck Todd was seen lunching with Rahm the other day in DC..so the first softball will probably come from him to set the ‘go soft on poor Bambi’ tone for the whole thing.

Well he gives a 10 minute answer to a question.

So it will be few questions or a really really really long conference.

But he will ballyhoo the ‘containment of the oil spill’, and that’s probably all he’ll be asked about.

Wouldn't it be nice if one of the press called him on it?

Sigh, I guess that it is too much to hope for!

1 drink for everytime he says he “inherited” a problem. This, of course, could relate to anything from the oil drilling to foot fungus. It’s ALL Bush’s fault!!!

A Must Read! Thanks! Soros has a sake in foreign oil. Therefore, no US drilling.

This POS government is criminal and must be stopped.
