Another "Milestone" Obama Speech About Nothing
Townhall ^ | 7-29-13 | Morgan Brittany

Posted on 08/07/2013 8:13:14 PM PDT by ReformationFan

Once again, Barak Obama stood before the American people and said…nothing. Well, not exactly “nothing”, he spoke for over an hour but after its conclusion one had to ask, “What was THAT all about?”

This speech was touted as one that would announce a great economic plan and lay out details for getting the economy booming again. Instead, it was more of a campaign, political speech with nothing but attacks against his opponents and downright anger over what he calls “phony distractions”.

Instead of identifying and providing solutions for the problems facing this nation, he once again blamed the “rich” and the “1%” for the inequality in America. He continued to push his class warfare agenda while at the same time tying it up with a ribbon around the Republicans neck. He kept pushing the mantra that the Republicans were the only reason that the country wasn’t advancing, not once looking at his failed policies.

Pssssst.... It’s a secret, but Obama doesn’t write a word of the crappy drivel he reads.

I’m serious.

Psssst... it’s a secret, but US Presidents don’t write their speeches, US Congresscritters and movie stars don’t read your postcards, TV anchorpersons don’t write the news they read.

He always says nothing, that’s what he does is say nothing..
the only ones that listens to him are people read into nothing, something..

Barry is the real life Chauncy Gardener.. it is not an act..
Some democrats noticed that he could say nothing well..
So, that’s what he does.

Obama’s speeches are always about nothing ... always. And no one holds him accountable for anything. He will go down in U.S. history as the first two-term, vacant Oval Office president. As such he is the perfect icon for the failed policy of affirmative action. He was awarded a Nobel Prize before he even did anything. What a joke.

Whatever happened to the soaring truth of MLK Jr.’s statement, that a man should be “judged by the content of his character, not by the color of his skin”?

I knew all that, of course I did. I'm just pointing out that people on the left think he's a genius, ya’ know. People on the left used to swoon thinking he was such a savior, when he's actually just a bumbling, Marxist moron reading class envy drivel from a teleprompter.

But gee, thanks again for mocking my reply.

No disagreement there. The biggest problem is that those speeches, whoever writes them, are filled with boilerplate platitudes. Compare to Reagan’s speeches.

A know -nothing- man who thinks of nothing, says nothing, and does nothing. Never has so much praise been given to and great expectations hoped for from so completely and utterly a nothing of a man.

I would agree. He’s suffering from the Chancey-syndrome...talking excessively but saying nothing. He gave some speech in Milwaukee about three years ago, and I listened through to the entire speech. He did his accent-trike, tossed in some fake promises, and then did the anti-Republican chant. Crowd loved it, but if you were listening purely to the radio...not watching it....you really got a different prospective of the whole speech.

I think by 2030...most historians will try to avoid listing his various speeches or using snipets of them for their reference to the Obama-era. As much as his speech ability got him the job....it’s now a boat-anchor...holding the administration to one tight spot.

The sad part is that is what they wanted and he got elected to office twice.

But remember, if the 4 million conservatives who stayed home 'cause they did not have their homecoming candidate of their dreams in the election HAD VOTED... obama would have lost in a landslide.

But they stayed home to make some grade school statement.. and did not vote for anyone.. but the joke was on them... but they did not vote,,,,,,,,and they DID VOTE for OBAMA.

Elections mean things, and in this case terrible things.

Be will lose SCOTUS, and he will set up the courts for a half century or more.

And guess what kids. It does not matter if we hold the house, or the senate, and take the presidency...

Right now we are lost if we can not take all three. So the coming elections really are critical... if you really believe in a Free Republic... and not just this site and our culture.

It never was about the presidency to the left, it was about SCOTUS, and all those who stayed home gave that to the left and the dems. The presidency was the a nice cherry on top.

Think kids, don't just listen to the media or anyone else. Those who did not vote for anyone but Obama, voted for Obama!

You gave away a landslide...did not even get to kiss the homecoming queen, but you can not weep..you are why we are here now.

Thanks.

True, dat! Ask someone, "quick, think of a quote from Reagan" and one might easily respond "Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall!". Or a quote from Kennedy, "Ich bin win Berliner!". But try and think of anything quotable or memorable from Obama. Nada. President Zero fits hit so well.

All of Obama’s famous quotes can be found on an Obama Bingo card. Shouldn’t the speechwriters get a clue and stop using the same old cliches that were becoming a running gag in 2008?
