Obama: The people at Beck’s rally are filled with anxiety

"I — I do think that it’s important for us to recognize that right now, the country’s going through a very difficult time, as a consequence of years of neglect in a whole range of areas. Our schools not working the way they need to, so we’ve slipped in terms of the number of college graduates, you know?

A financial system that was not, you know, operating in a way that maintained integrity and assured that the people who were investing or who were buying a home or were using a credit card weren’t getting in some way cheated. We had a health care system that was broken and that was bankrupting families and businesses. All those issues are big, tough, difficult issues. And those are just our domestic issues. That’s before we get to policy issues in two wars. And a continuing battle against terrorists who want to do us harm.

So, given all those anxieties — and given the fact that, you know, in none of these situations are you going to be fix things overnight. It’s not surprising that somebody like a Mr. Beck is able to stir up a certain portion of the country. That’s been true throughout our history. What I’m focused on is making sure that the decisions we’re making now are going to be be not good for the nightly news. Not good even necessarily for the next election. But are good for the next generation. And I’m very confident that those decisions are the ones that we’ve made."

I'm surprised that Sparky didn't scratch his nose with his middle finger when he mentioned ‘Mr. Beck’. You'll remember when he flipped off HRC.

What a condescending statement! I think the Progressives want the people to feel anxious. After all, everything this administration has done has been aimed at bringing down the country. His observation was pure wishful thinking. I didn’t see any “anxious” faces among those shown on TV today of the Rally. I saw clean cut people with hope and concern. Not anxiety but dedication to do what it takes to restore our amazing country. For every one of those 500,000 who attended the rally, 300 to 600 or more could not be there, but feel and think as they do.

"Oh, so now it takes an entire generation for policy decisions to make a real impact. Bush’s destruction was so insiduous, so calculated, so diabolical it will now take the anointed one who was able to stop the ocean’s rise with nothing more than his nomination, an entire generation to reverse."

Good point.

The very favorite from his Whine Hit Parade is "the previous 8 years", or "the previous administration".

If it takes so long to "turn this great ship of state" as BiteMe recently put it, how could the previous 8 years have had such an impact?

Does not compute.

But then, nothing this Administration says of does makes sense except in their diabolical scheme to destroy America.

"That’s been true throughout our history."

I absolutely HATE it when he pretends his history...or his values...have ANYTHING in common with mine.

I'm an AMERICAN.

No need for him to get all wee-weed up about it.

I remember obozo’s middle finger salute so well.

Now that we're on to him, it sounds that he changing his tactics by just making snarky comments such as when he recently referred to Glenn Beck as “a Glenn Beck.”

He seems to enjoy making silly comments and using childish gestures to vent his hatred and anger...he is child-like and definitely a man-child.

It’s a good thing they had a close cropped shot of Bambi.

Even his own FCC would have removed the images of “The Won” strokin’ it during the interview.

Pee Wee was WAY cooler on a bike! & he went to jail for strokin’ it public.

Where is the JUSTICE?
