Hussein loves to get in front of a camera, eh? Say, I wonder if any brave reporter will ask Hussein why he wasn't so damn insistent on a budget being passed last year when he and his poodles controlled the entire apparatus.

Also: will anyone inform this "Constitutional Law expert" that if he ignores the debt ceiling he will be violating Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 of the Supreme Law of the Land:

No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.

[MulberryDraw]

Oh boy! Maybe he will show us the back of that envelope.

[C210N]

All Hail, as He speaks unto us...

[Emperor Palpatine]

[John W]

Though he was going low profile this year?

(and a sure loser in any 2-way matchup in Nov 2012.)

President Obama scheduled an impromptu meeting

You can't schedule an impromptu meeting.

[JohnBrowdie]

let me save you the trouble, and preview what he is going to say; “it’s all george bush’s fault. the republicans want to kill old people and eat babies. I killed bin laden. LOOK! over there! something shiny! I am the only adult in the room. no one works harder than me. bin laden is still dead. thank you, and drive safely.”

[forgotten man]

I predict that he will not pronounce his “g”’s today. He be campaignin.

[Dr. Ursus]

He must have been jealous of Casey that nobody was talking
about him for the last two hours!

[livius]

I predict that he will not pronounce his “g”’s today.

LOL! The guy is a chameleon. Somebody needs to put him on plaid.

[Not A Snowbird]

It would be a nice diversion from wall-to-wall Casey Anthony coverage, if I could stand the sound of his voice for more than 7.3 seconds. Which is how long it usually takes me to grab the remote.

“We inherited this mess, so we need to borrow a little more money to get us out of it. A few trillion should do it.”

[camerongood210]

Would you be so kind as to give us cubically confined folks a general play-by-play.

[ex-snook]

The only country that knows how to create jobs and not run up debt at the same time is China. We should learn from them.

Moody’s warns on China’s local debt

[NEMDF]

“A few more trillion, and another five years, and you can bet I’ll get this economy turned back around.... It’ll be like air-lifting us out of the ditch the GOP drove us into...”

[Russ]

But will the Republicans hold a counter-press conference to rebut the Obama lies or will they remain hidden in the tall grass afraid of their shadow?

[relee]

... and still allows us to invest in that future ...

The President is still talking about spending more money!

[RandallFlagg]

Either he’s late to the podium...AGAIN...

Or he’s sent out Moochie to do a pole dance and everyone’s in their bathrooms, unable to type...
