Unless he’s tendering his resignation there is nothing he could possibly say that would interest me. It will be lies whatever it is.

He doesn't need to shut down the media.

They are part of his "Propaganda Department".

Koffler is a WH reporter.

(I am veteran White House reporter Keith Koffler. White House Dossier is the only 24/7, independent, and totally unauthorized White House blog.)

No one will ask about Barry’s upcoming vacation.

He/they will go, there will be a blackout of pictures and any information about how many friends are going with them.

The rest of us will worry about making payrolls or keeping our jobs.

“I hope he will take a moment to acknowledge the Navy SEALs sacrifice without any political spin.”

The only reason he would say anything about it is FOR polical spin. Considering how I’ve been hearing about casualties lately from stationed soldiers INSTEAD of the media doesn’t make me buy anything about the story released about this latest loss. For all we know, Hussein cleaned up the witnesses to his last “operation.”

Yep, no one is listening to his flaky excuses. Times up we’re done with him...now invoke the 25th...he hasn’t a clue how to run this country...

I am so mad.
If I knew how to post, I would post an article that just got released in the Seattle Times. This administration is planning to send Somalia $100 million in famine relief- “for the children”.
I am so sick of this government. We have no money, yet can find some to give to a country that lives in the stone ages, and also hates the US.

Internet, Fox, Talk Radio

Then he can re-open the Government approved alphabets: abc/nbc/cbs and their cable clones.

See post 161 the usurper will be speaking from the state dining room.

And he won’t address gas prices or the gutting of the middle/upper class and the massive pain and job losses.Nor the soon to be horrendous grocery prices we face because of the drought. You’re correct we are screwed. The MSM can all go to hell.

When is O'Reilly finally going to admit that Obama is DELIBERATELY trying to sabotage this country and bring it to its heels?

Many conservative guests have tried to worm it out of him....but he always says in his best weasel voice..."Oh, I'm not going to go THAT far...."

It took three years for someone to get him to admit Obama is a socialist, but he said it only one time, mind you....and I'm sure he had his fingers crossed behind his back.

Maybe only when the Bloviator sees his ENTIRE stock portfolio evaporate will he speculate that maybe, well, alledgedly, supposedly, perhaps Obama has an agenda to implode this nation beyond repair.

Well, I suppose THAT'LL be the day!

My only interest in O'Reilly is that his show reaches so many people....and so many ignorant people as well....just like he.

I have no idea what he’s going to say but I have a funny feeling he’s going to tank his presidency for good. I’m feeling a malaise moment coming on.

He’ll just repeat this mornings MoveOn talking points:

:From Robert Reich: Repeat after me: We don’t have a debt crisis. We have a jobs, wages, and growth crisis. Spread the word. And phone S&P.”

To boot the SOB will be late to the teleprompter and I will have to vomit thinking of watching him swaggert his way to the podium so maybe the state dining room won’t have him swaggering down a long hall.
