“Will Biden be speaking? That’s who I am waiting for!”

I think they could put Joe O’Biden’s pressers on pay-for-view and use the proceeds to pay down the debt

They should be better than SNL skits

Joe is definitely the eloquent one in this Abbot-and-Costello executive team

I really think we all should give President-suspect Obamessiah some time before we start in on him.

OOOPS. TIME’S UP!!!

Nicely played.

If you’re late to your own press conference, it should be because you’re taking a more time to plan it, not because you’re busy straightening your tie or taking a dump.

This PC was poorly planned and, as you say, ended suddenly. Reminds me the old poster from many years ago. It’s text only in huge letters: PLAN AHEAD

Except the last three letters are so scrunched up as they approach the right edge of the paper.

Here are some similar posters, though not the same:

Yes, my fluffy white bichon’s two best friends are pitt bulls that belong to my bf. They make a funny group walking down the street.

Where are all the black people on stage with him?

What better way to diss whitey than to make 'em all stand behind him, staring at his hat ?

When talking to folks, I will use this example:

Would you rather have $50 now or a $5 payment every month from now on (the rough equivalent of a tax cut on earnings)? I want to see what each person says.

I can’t stomach the man, or listen to his voice. He makes my blood boil and my health is just too important. Call me a wimp, or whatever, but, it’s the ugly truth.

Everything he says is fluff. No wonder he was elected. I can't listen to his voice either. I don't like his delivery style. Just thinking about him and his past puts my stomach in knots. It's been in knots since Tuesday.

Haven’t read all the posts, but when he said he’d spoken with former President’s, did he fail to mention Clinton?

"Punctuality is the courtesy of kings" -- Louis XVIII

... expanded by Bulwer-Lytton as "Punctuality is the stern virtue of men of business, and the graceful courtesy of princes."

By those lights, the Zero has pretty conclusively defined himself...

Oh no it ain't. Barry Soetoro hasn't been inaugurated yet. Plenty of time, plenty of angles to avoid America's most hideous mistake before it is irreversable.

Barry's already dishing out enough false hope for everybody. I just don't see him not taking the oath of office on January 20th.

The surest sign that people have questionable patriotism is when they cloak themselves in the flag. Obama does it incessantly and so does Pelosi and the congressional democrat leadership.

WTAM 1100 radio Cleveland reports that in 16 minutes 50 seconds of speech and q/a, President-Elect Obama said a combined 162 uhmmms, and uhhhs. The assigned intern did not count uhhs that were added to the end of a normal word, such as theuhhhhhh, or touhhhhh. Only clear cut uhhs and uhms that were distinct words in and of themselves were counted.
