Obama Mocks Nancy Reagan in 1st Press Conference

Obama Press Conference | Today | Self

[DouglasKC]

Will have exact details when transcript is made available...

During his first press conference a reporter asked a question about what Presidents he would consult. Obama's answer was to the effect of the living ones, not like Nancy Reagan seances or words to that effect...

“I was sitting back and thinking about this today: How ironic is it that people were fooled into believing a Chicago Democrat is the antidote for corruption in government? The coming disillusionment of American would be truly hilarious to behold, if it wasn’t going to be so tragic.”

I keep thinking surely they(the assigned Feds) are going to get Obama for his illegal fundraising donations, well how about his ACORN/political donations that endorsed a candidate, Obama, Ok how about the Rezko land deal....isn’t that about the same thing Stevens from Alaska was convicted of last week....how about IS he even a Natural born citizen...anyone even SEE his real copy of birth certificate...this truly is a very scary moment in history...and there on TV is Oprah, Will Smith, TV announcer crying their eyes out....because he is black. Unbelievable.....IF he was black and morally sound...good, but black radical socialist scum bag...is another.

HOLY MOLEY!!!!

[Mojave]

I think Obama’s comment was funny, acutally.

Obama channeled dead former presidents during one of his narcotics induced hallucinations.

If a Republican official said that during a press conference, would it be funny?

There are many people who believe in astrology.

She sought solace after the assassination attempt, I would not criticize her for a moment.

[mware]

Ronny Reagan (the ballet dancer) must be proud that he endorsed Obama.

[Carley]

Waiting for the day when something intelligent comes out of his mouth.

When stoners' are answering questions with witty retorts, facts never get in the way. Believe me. It's all good. Question: How is the FBI and the Secret Service going to get this guy's act together enough to deal the daily act of being the POTUS? Man, and I thought the Clinton's were crass. Also, years from now, will books be written about Barry's dependence on drugs while residing in the Big House? Shaking head.....

What's with this podium? What an idiot

He was trying to be funny. He wasn’t, but his intention IMHO was not to mock Nancy Reagan.

She's not much of a target today, not someone a politician would go out of his way to attack, but the comment did show insensitivity.

The Hillary people accused him of being a misogynist with his "sweetie" this and "sweetie" that. The Palin people took offense at his "lipstick on a pig" comment. A lot of people call Obama a narcissist. And then he lets a comment like this drop on his first outing. Not a good sign.

Actually, it would have been kind of funny or at least disarming if he'd said "living ones" and let it go at that.

[Carley]

His plan is to build the economy from the bottom up.

Can anyone explain that in logical terms.

So Obama went to his first press conference as president elect, checked in told everyone he was voting present and then left.

I was actually complimenting the American people by saying they DO NOT LIKE a President-Elect MOCKING a former First Lady.

Noob, just so you are clear on it, I was castigating you for making up a statistic and posting it as some sort of fact ..

Quit calling me a newbie, I’ve been for a couple weeks now.

A couple of weeks ... wow. Get over yourself, noob ... your noobness will be leaching out of your thin skin like sweat on a fat man for at least a few more months ..

[RegulatorCountry]

Tell me please, which orifice did you pull this little factoid out of ?

The same orifice from which 99.99725% of all statistics are pulled, when they're made in jest.

[McGruff]

You make all the right points in your post. Update that tag-line though.

[Mojave]

Ronny Reagan (the ballet dancer) must be proud that he endorsed Obama.

I'll bet the ballerina is too craven to even stand up for his mother.

[dforest]

Well, I always have said Obama was a smarta$$.

[Palladin]

Unlike his fellow traveler Hillary Clinton, who channeled Eleanor Roosevelt, Obama will channel Stalin, Karl Marx, and Chairman Mao.

[Sopater]

Give it UP, Nancy! Ronnie’s DEAD!

Don't you realize that embryonic stem cells could bring people back from the dead? You'll never know 'til you spend billions of tax dollars on research. (/sarc)

[tx_eggman]

The same orifice from which 99.99725% of all statistics are pulled, when they're made in jest.

Now that one made me laugh ..

Read more and thought more about this.

And the only thing now that comes to mind...

What an ass****!

Way to go BO. Off to a great start “uniting” the country.
