Obama lost 21 million viewers from his first prime-time presser in February..”

And the networks lost $21 million in advertising revenue. Hmmmm…1 viewer = $1 ?

Susan Boyles is well over 80 million views. I guess her awesome voice is sweeter than obama’s stuttering and rap.

Obama is near finishing his first 24 hours officially as a used car salesman in training.

All the Chrysler plants are closed and suppliers stopped shipping parts. The USED car saleman has not told them they will get paid. The closing of Chrysler is an absolute loss of thousands of jobs. They may or may not come out of bankruptcy and re open. Read the Detroit paper. The truth is Chrysler is dead for now. The workers will have to petition the courts for pay and insurance coverage.

This reminds me of the song “Stairway to Heaven”.
Before they started playing it on the radio I used to love the song and next thing I know they are playing it over and over and over again. To this day I never listen to it thanks to so much over exposure.
I didn’t like zero to begin with so this is even worse.

I feel the same way about “Can’t Fight This Feeling” by REO Speedwagon.

The important thing is, you see his face while channel surfing

Who was listening to the details when they voted him in any way?

His press conferences becomes like a 2 second speech, so he never gives a bad speech. Afterwards, the talking shills can spend hours reporting to you the intentions of what he said and his reputation will swell like a balloon

I was watching reruns of Gilligans Island last night. The President spoke? Did he say anything interesting?

Tommy_G on April 30, 2009 at 6:59 PM

It couldn’t have been as interesting as Mary Ann

I had a liberal friend say to me “I hate to say this, but I’m getting awfully tired of hearing him.”

Well who wouldn’t, what with petulant didacticism and the pathological lies.

The one in March was so scripted that it qualified as propaganda. Few need to have the democrat talking points lectured to them again by a liberal media working with a liberal President. I skipped it.

Bravo Packer. I keep questioning why Obama doesn’t say he has saved or created 140 million jobs. I mean if you are a pathological liar like Barack, then just do it big time. The press isn’t gonna call him on it. I mean the Slimes had to give that curve ball because otherwise Obama wasn’t going to call on the paper. Obama had his list and he counted it twice to make sure all the reporters’ questions were nice when BH Obama went to town.

And in November of 2010, Obama will be raising the dead to vote.

He has a gift!

Weird. Our local Fox showed its normally programming on my guide, but we were treated to The One’s speech. I wonder if our local affiliate over-rode the programming?

I’ve heard that there were a few cases where the local affiliate decided to carry Obama’s press conference.

Here’s a thread from (I think) the FOX website

Now the networks can ask for a bailout for all the lost revenue they could have had instead of putting repeat speeches on prime time television.

We’ve got 3+ more years of this as he is campaigning for re-election and hoping to keep his supporters entralled till then. I am really frightened for our country. I’m not sure enough people will rally against what the president and Nancy Pelosi have in store for us. Our President is an actor playing a role, doing the biding of some person(s) behind the scene writing the script or he wouldn’t be so dependant on the teleprompter. How sad that we have come to this.
