Live Thread: Obama Press Conference on Debt Ceiling 11 A.M. EDT 7/11/11 (He's late, as usual)
Monday, July 11, 2011 | Kristinn

Will any reporter have the nerve to ask Obama why he is always late compared to President Bush who was always on time?

Consistent tardiness is a sign of contempt.

Or that he had a slow four-some in front of him on the back 9.

We know what he will say:
Republicans think we are a banana republic.
The rich need to pay more.
We are going to default.
We need to raise taxes to balance the budget.
I propose cuts to come into effect in ten years.

He was only thirteen minutes late. All four broadcast networks carrying live, as are the cable news networks.

Get ready for more class warfare and attacks against the Reps. Then he will continue negotiations. Obama is trying to position himself as the advocate for big spending cuts. He is now the guy who wants to tackle deficits while spending like a drunken sailor over the past three years increasing the national debt by almost $4 trillion.

Isn’t Tiger Woods having a competing press conference?

I’m watching but holding my nose. Even the sight of him turns my mood negative.

Will any reporter have the nerve to ask Fauxbama why he’s lying about the US defaulting if there is no debt increase?

He’s insisting he won’t consider a temporary “fix” - I bet he’s going to eat those words, because the dems are whining that we’ll default if we don’t raise the debt ceiling (I don’t believe it), so they have to do something.

He’s trying to present himself as a triangulator—a la Clinton. Allegedly calling for both sides to made “sacrifices.” Trying to portray himself as a middle of the roader for those independent voters in 2012. His actions as president have shown that he is NOT a middle of the road kind of guy.....

Obama is trying to position himself in the middle. He is triangulating like Clinton. His real objective is to divide the Reps by getting them to agree to tax increases. Then he will beat them over the head with it in 2012.

Obama is using his usual tactics of setting an arbitrary deadline creating a crisis atmosphere to stampede the Reps into a deal.

“Consistent tardiness is a sign of contempt.”

Indeed. AND, also a sign of serious lack of self-discipline, or discipline of any kind. Community organizers have to be disciplined about......nothing.

Resistance by him to do anything on entitlements and “strong” resistance by republicans to do anything on revenues.

He has a lot of nerve to stand up there and admonish everyone over politics without taking a single ounce of blame for his failed economic policies and yes; he owns it.
