Weeks 86: Meet the Press

Our Orator of Soaring Empty Rhetoric- in - Chief conducted his eighth Propaganda, we mean Press Conference during Week 86 of the Socialist regime adoringly referred to as the Obama Transformational Presidency by his loyal dominions in the main stream media elite. With few exceptions the stunningly Obama biased White House press corps gave what is quickly shaping up to be the most disastrous Presidency in US history a pass on his unprecedented number of failed policy initiatives, foreign and domestic.

Standing right on up behind the Presidential podium just like he had good sense our Propagandist-in-Chief held court in the East Room of the White for one hour and fifteen minutes or there abouts. He spent most of the time during his opening remarks lying about how his economic policies saved us from a financial catastrophe of biblical proportions.

He also kept rambling on incoherently about digging, ditches, driving, cars keys and such. Talking points that seem to have infected every boneheaded left wing radical liberal who keep repeating this ridiculous dribble add nauseam.

When all was said and done the White House scribes asked the enlightened one a grand total of thirteen questions about a variety of topics including healthcare cost, tax cuts and Gitmo. In all likelihood breaking a Presidential record our Master of Stall/Filibuster/Obsfucationor-in-Chief responded in 9,050 words. An astonishing long winded; empty suit; blow hard; evasive; deceitful; low down lying cheaten and misleading 696 words per reply.

That equates to almost three single spaced typed pages per answer. Sure enough some serious bloviating even for our He/Who/Loves / the / Sound / of / His/Own/Voice-in-Chief.

Following are selected excerpts from this propagandafest along with some extremely astute and profound editorial comments:

Opening Remarks

• THE PRESIDENT: Have a seat, everybody. Good morning. Before I take your questions, I just want to talk a little bit about our continuing efforts to dig ourselves out of this recession and to grow our economy.
• This bonehead is obsessed with this dig metaphor. The thought of Mr. Harvard Law Constitutional Scholar liberal elitist actually commandeering a shovel and subjecting himself to manual labor is ludicrous.
• As I said in Cleveland on Wednesday, I ran for President because I believed the policies of the previous decade had left our economy weaker and our middle class struggling. They were policies that cut taxes, especially for millionaires and billionaires, cut regulations for corporations and for special interests, and left everyone else pretty much fending for themselves. They were policies that ultimately culminated in a financial crisis and a terrible recession that we're still digging out of today.
• Hey bonehead, ever hear mention of the bursting of the housing bubble brought on by liberal social engineering and a handful of greedy Wall Street bankers. Try digging on the truth for a change as opposed to that diatribe of lies in your comments above.
• We also announced a six-year plan to rebuild America's roads and railways and runways. Already our investments in infrastructure are putting folks in the construction industry back to work. And this plan would put thousands more back to work, and it would help us remain competitive with countries in Europe and Asia that have already invested heavily in projects like high-speed railroads.
• More shovel ready projects and that psychotic obsession with digging. The same policies that led to 9.5 – 10 % unemployment, no growth and unsustainable debt. Great plan bonehead

Q & A

• And now I'd be happy to take some questions, and I'm going to start with Darlene Superville of AP.
• Q - Thank you, Mr. President. You said this week that Democrats wouldn't do well in the November elections if it turns out to be a referendum on the economy. But with millions of people out of work and millions of people losing their homes, how could it not be a referendum on the economy and your handling of it, and why would you not welcome that? Oh great anointed one.
• THE PRESIDENT: Well Darlene darlin, the -- what I said was that if it was just a referendum on whether we've made the kind of progress that we need to, then people around the country would say we're not there yet. If the election is about the policies that are going to move us forward versus the policies that will get us back into a mess, then I think the Democrats will do very well. Besides, the Republicans drove us into this ditch and now they want the keys to the car back. We can’t afford to go in reverse back to their failed policies. We need to put it in drive a move forward.
• The Democrats are on their way to the woodshed for a whooping usually reserved for a red headed stepchild.
• Caren, Sweet britches. Q - Thank you, Mr. President. You're looking for Republican help on the economic proposals that you unveiled this week, and you also mentioned the small business bill. But you're at odds with them over tax cuts. Is there room for a middle ground whereby, for example, the tax cuts on the wealthy could be extended for a period of time, and then allowed to expire?
• THE PRESIDENT: Well, certainly there is going to be room for discussion but the GOP yahoos aren’t ever gonna get me to agree to extending W’s tax cuts for their rich friends. That’s just too contrary to my Marxist/Socialist nature.
• Chip “The Chipper” Reid. - Q Thank you, Mr. President. On the economic package that you rolled out earlier this week, first on the business tax cuts. Why did you wait until this superheated campaign season to roll it out? A lot of your critics and even some Democrats say, well, clearly he's just using this for political purposes, he doesn't have any expectation it's actually going to be passed, it's a political weapon. Why did you wait so long to bring that out?
• And on the stimulus part, we can't get people in the White House to say it is a stimulus -- $50 billion for roads and other infrastructure, but they avoid the word "stimulus" like the plague. Is that because the original stimulus is so deeply unpopular? And if so, why is it so unpopular?
• THE PRESIDENT: Well, let me -- let me go back to when I first came into office. We had an immediate task, which was to rescue an economy that was tipping over a cliff. And we put in place an economic plan that 95 percent of economists say substantially helped us avoid a depression.
• How about naming 5 of those mystery Economist bonehead.
• Hans “The Yodeler” Nichols. - Q Thank you, Mr. President. I'll ask my real question. It's now been more than two months since the financial reg reform bill has passed. A centerpiece of that was what you talked about as a consumer financial protection bureau. And yet you haven't named a head. Is Elizabeth Warren still a leading candidate? And if not, are you worried about some sort of Senate hurdle for her confirmation? Thank you.
• THE PRESIDENT: So this agency I think has the capacity to really provide middle-class families the kind of protection that's been lacking for too long.
• Who is gonna protect all of us from you and your oppressive Communist Regime?
• All right. Chuck “The Truck” Todd. Q - Given the theme, I think, of all of your answers, I've just got a short question for you. How have you changed Washington?
• THE PRESIDENT: Well, I'll tell you how we've changed Washington. In less than two years we are well on our way to transitioning to Socialism, bankruptcy, and an international joke.
• Anne “Baby Cakes” Kornblut. - Q - Thank you, Mr. President. Nine years after the September 11th attacks, why do you think it is that we are now seeing such an increase in suspicion and outright resentment of Islam, especially given that it has been one of your priorities to increase -- to improve relations with the Muslim world?
• THE PRESIDENT: I think that at a time when the country is anxious generally and going through a tough time, then fears can surface, suspicions, divisions can surface in a society. Being a Muslim myself, I mean a friend of Islam, me and all my Jihadist brethren down at the Ground Zero Mosque have been burning some holes in the ole prayer rugs on this one.
• Natasha “Brown Eyed” Mozgovaya of Haaretz. Q - Mr. President, back in the region, the Palestinian and Israeli leaders, they sound a bit less ready for this historic compromise. President Abbas, for example, said the Palestinians won't recognize Israel as a Jewish state. The question is, if these talks fail at an early stage, will this administration disengage? Or maybe you're ready to step up and deepen your personal involvement.
• THE PRESIDENT: President Abbas and Prime Minister Netanyahu were here last week, and they came with a sense of purpose and seriousness and cordiality that, frankly, exceeded a lot of people's expectations. Combine that with my undeniable winning personality and powers of persuasion and this almost a done deal.
• Maybe when pigs fly and Hillary quits wearing a butt ugly pants suit.
• Jake “The Snake” Tapper.Q - Thank you, Mr. President. A couple questions. First, were you concerned at all when you -- when the administration had Secretary of Defense Gates call this pastor in Florida that you were elevating somebody who is clearly from the fringe?
• THE PRESIDENT: With respect to the individual down in Florida, let me just say -- let me repeat what I said a couple of days ago. The idea that we would burn the sacred texts of someone else's religion is contrary to what this country stands for. It's contrary to what this country -- this nation was founded on. And my hope is, is that this individual prays on it and refrains from doing it.
• What do you mean “we” Kemosabi? You got a frog in your pocket?
• Helene ”Sweet Cheeks” Cooper. Q - Thank you, Mr. President. Two questions. One on Afghanistan. How can you lecture Hamid Karzai about corruption when so many of these corrupt people are on the U.S. payroll?
• THE PRESIDENT: So what we have done is to say we are going to, after seven years of drift, after seven years of policies in which, for example, we weren't even effectively training Afghan security forces, what we've done is to say we're going to work with the Afghan government to train Afghan security forces so they can be responsible for their own security.
• Hey bonehead, not one attack on the mainland for those seven years of “drift”. Sure wish we could say the same about the last 86 weeks
• Wendell “Token Black Uncle Tom from the evil Fox News” Goler . Q - Thank you, Mr. President. I wonder if I can get you to weigh in on the wisdom of building a mosque a couple of blocks from Ground Zero. We know that the organizers have the constitutional right. What would it say about this country if they were somehow talked out of doing that? And hasn't the Florida minister's threat to burn a couple hundred copies of the Koran, hasn't the threat itself put American lives in danger, sir?
• THE PRESIDENT: With respect to the mosque in New York, I think I've been pretty clear on my position here, and that is, is that this country stands for the proposition that all men and women are created equal; that they have certain inalienable rights -- one of those inalienable rights is to practice their religion freely. And what that means is that if you could build a church on a site, you could build a synagogue on a site, if you could build a Hindu temple on a site, then you should be able to build a mosque on the site.
• If we’re not mistaken the 9/11 sneak attack wasn’t conducted by radical Jews; Hindus; Catholics; Methodist or Christian Scientist. It weren’t Southern Baptist, a fringe sect of Mormons or Reformed Druids (worship shrubs and bushes as opposed to trees) neither. It was radical Islamic Jihadist. From our way of reckoning and for anybody with half a brain a mighty powerful distinction.

On that note the President thanked everyone for coming and was ushered out of the East Room mumbling incoherently to himself about digging, ditches, driving, car keys, Islam and Victory Mosques. The letter W and tax cuts were also over heard several times.
