Just out from multiple sources (no news articles yet):

[janetjanet998]

why today? maybe the Fed is going to do something drastic

[firebrand]

BHO probably has the same input right about now.

[John W]

Amen.

[ZX12R]

You believe President Biden would make better decisions?

Hmmmm...tough choice...brain dead stupid, or hard idealogue. Couldn't Biden accidentally do something helpful?

[Evil Slayer]

Having a strategy meeting with Satan in hell.

[baddog 219]

Obama and his minions are gathering behind locked doors making their finally plan to destroy the country....Their secret weapon.... RACE WAR...

[N. Theknow]

Sounds as though the initial polling of his focus groups about what he should say yesterday was a wee bit off.

72 hours, plus a one hour delay to appear, and that speech, Same $hit-Different Day, was the best His Royal Blatherness could come up with?

Washing out the day's planned business indicates something unplanned and urgent has happened or is about to, and that is not good.

Unplanned and urgent has become a weekly event with this administration.

Federal Reserve policymakers began meeting Tuesday morning, and a Fed statement, due at 2:15 p.m EDT, will be scrutinized. While the central bank isn’t expected to debut any massive new program to help asset prices, investors may return to selling if there’s no indication that help is on the way.

My thoughts are Biden would want and try to do the same bad decisions, but likely be less effective.

[biggredd1]

It was either tee time or go to Andrews for the dead SEALS arriving? hmmmm??????

Michelle kicked the snot out of him for causing her to lose all her stock in Burger King.

Actually, at least out here in Los Angeles, Burger King cleaned up yesterday...they had, in honor of 8/8, an 88 cent Whopper for sale between 8am and 8pm. Every drivethru I passed had car lines not seen since the heyday of drive-in movie theatres.

[spokeshave]

Someone told him what “taking tea with Polonius” is all about.

[Illuminatas]

It’s called gallows humor.

When you are going up the stairs to the block, throw the crowd a jaunty wave and give the headman a wink and a coin.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Wondering if the moving company he ws going to visit, was to set up a deal to remove his belongings from the White House?

[mad_as_he$$]

From a purely human nature point of view, it is interesting to watch a person that has no social basis for how to behave in many situations try and figure out what to do in a “crisis”. From a citizen point of view it is very scary how little the 0 knows about governing.

[silverleaf]

He wont make apublic visit to Dove runless h e cna blame these deaths on Bush

But if this is where he spends his day, privately, he *may* have been muscled by Daley into making a **private** trip (with photos of himself consoling the grieving families) to be released later to conjure up a strong military leader image, and to milk the sympathy vote

[mad_as_he$$]

lol Beer summit with S&P.

[silverleaf]

He won't make a public visit to Dover unless he can blame these deaths on Bush's war

But if this is where he spends his day, privately, he *may* have been muscled by Daley into making a **private** trip (with photos of himself consoling the grieving families) to be released later to conjure up a strong military leader image, and to milk the sympathy vote and maybe even to try to re-attach the anti-war vote to his support

[1066AD]

As I said yesterday, he’s gone to meet John Kerry and get his secret plan.
