Obama to speak in 30 minutes - or in an hour or two (Live Thread)

Posted on 05/01/2011 7:11:45 PM PDT by ConservativeMan55

Geraldo just announced Obama will make some sort of statement in 30 minutes. Geraldo says this is unusually late and figures it has something to do with Libya.

OBL was killed a week ago. Why the special “emergency” speech tonight?
If the pres__ent knew about this all week, why is he late tonight?

Why couldn’t this be a “breaking news” thing instead of pres__ent scaring the beejeezus out of us? I thought we were under an attack or something.


Wag the dog...

If you are not aware tomorrow Gary Kreep is before the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.

If this statement by Kreep is true, Obama is a NATURALIZED citizen at best...

“He said he traveled to Pakistan in the 1980s, but on what kind of passport? He said he didn’t have a U.S. passport until he was senator in 2004,” Kreep said.

From 9/11 until December of 2003, we got to see Bin Laden’s face on video at least every two weeks. The man loved the video camera. Then all of a sudden we only saw videos from spokesmen for Laden or supposed audio from Laden because he was reported to be in hiding.

During December 2003, the military were certainly using lots of nice Daisy Cutters and I happen to believe Bin Laden was in the wrong place at the right time! Most likely he has been dust since December 2003.

Now it is announced that Laden was killed a week ago?

Al Zawari is the one we want...Bin Laden is secondary. I agree completely.

“Great, now what about Mullah Omar?”

We got the bastard that killed 3,000 Americans. This is an awesome day.

Here come the security precautions, though somehow I don’t think Islamists and their sympathizers will have as much to worry about as the folks Barry doesn’t like...

Jeez, can they get the whistling fool off of Fox.

Bret Baier is there! Now Geraldo can go home and do whatever awful things he does before his Obama shrine.

“.it would only be appropriate that they dance as well.”

I dunno, I thought it tacky when our enemies danced on 9/11.

My guess were:
  1. Aliens have been found
  2. Biden or Obama is resigning
  3. Osama is dead

How about this:

2.5: The USA defaults on all its debts.

No. I saw Bret Baer from Special Report speak here in Naples a month ago and he told us that info then. I still have it on my text messages because when he told us the rumor was Panetta was going to DOD and Petraeus to CIA, I texted family and said WTF? Panetta to DOD?? Wish I could put it on here to show you. :)

Its wierd that the whole networks get interrupted for a non-announcement by Obama, and then the MSM starting with Geraldo speculation and Wolf Blitzer and NYT start getting details for what Obie was going to talk about.

It's weird that he's an hour late.... but as for the rest, I can see leaks from Congress and elsewhere getting to the MSM outlets as soon as their offices found out.

55 minutes late, though.... I can't understand that part at all.

"He’s a very teeny tiny man and frankly I’m more scared of him than I’ve ever been of the ailiing Bin Laden. He planned this....it’s got his modus operandi all over it. "

Your entire post.

Considering the nasty humor against trump last night, and then soetoro messing with his show, soetoro is lower than dirt.

Disgusting how the news folks are building this up greatly as an Obama achievement. The glory goes to our military...period!

Blitzer & Co. on CNN have been crowing all night how this happened on Obama's watch. Another FReeper said that George Steponallofus on ABC is claiming "this is a huge political victory for Obama".

The glory does INDEED go to our US military, who accomplished this DESPITE lack of support from Obama and the 'RATs and their despicable Rules of Engagement.

I turned off the TV because NBC anchors were having a Bush bashing and an Obama lovefest.

I had to turn off ABC for that same reason. George Stephanopolous and his guests were immediately sprinkling touches of partisanship into their commentary. George smugly ribbed a former Bush advisor for that administration's failure to pull this off...one of his other guests said this was specifically due to the Obama administration's unique approach to the war on terror. This was being spun into a partisan story IMMEDIATELY by the MSM.

True, and I went over to DU. One of the first comments I saw was something along the lines of, “Can we leave now?”. That was about all I could stand.
