4/9/09: White House Press Briefing

[screenflicker1]

he needs to fix his $5000 tie, just kidding

[keithholden]

Public want the goverment to stop spending so much,

The goverment want the public to spend more.

[todnyc]

lol, i guess you're new to America

[Enslaved10]

Public also want the government to fix our problems, and that`s what Obama`s doing right now.

[MalikiMoonwalker]

All of you are kind of silly. THERE IS NO WAY THAT ANY GOV'T CAN ACHIEVE FULL TRANSPARENCY. IF ANY OF YOU'VE EVER SERVED THIS COUNTRY MILITARILY OR POLITICALLY, YOU'LL KNOW THAT MOST "TRUE WINS" HAPPEN IN SILENCE.

IT'S SAD..... BUT TRUE.

Also:

Didn't it look like he bowed to the Queen of England, also?

Nobody's making a big deal about that.

Why is that? She's only a queen. The other guy is a king. (skin color)

Maybe it's the humility and kindness in Obama.

He's pretty tall too.

[lowellriggsiam]

It's funny the public wants the goverment to stop spending so much money and when they start cutting there is "significant" opposition to whetever it is. Wisdom seems to dictate there is just no pleasing everyone.

[harvey101107]

a government group "concerned" about maritime safety isn't going to save these cargo ships. give them some god damn protection if you want to save lives.

[abishopobispo]

Wow, you think journalists at the White House briefings would have the foresight to turn off their cellphones beforehand.

Nothing says professionalism like having your ring tone interrupt the press conference... twice.

[todnyc]

what about when Rudy Giuliani took a call in the middle of a speech... very professional as well

[StopObamanow1]

This idiot is Mentally Handicapped .

[daltonsbadboy]

I think he is a smart ass.....Did Oboma bow, and he has to say something like"I'm sure the people are really concerened with the economy as an issue".....quite using the economy to hide behind BOZO

[crazycrazycaleb]

Lulz @ 13:26

[OlivierdeAthos]

To summarize: these press briefings are just like all press briefings since the inception of White House press briefings.

[honey2heaven]

[starcatcher7777]

Peace:

So does Obama and you should see him really drool with out his Teleprompter ! OR IS THAT PROCTOR ?

[dimaniak]

Are you gay?

[starcatcher7777]

Look at the numbers this is just April alone. Just the month of April.

Immigrant numbers in the "diversity visa" for April alone have Africa at 26,900, Egypt 17,400, Somalia 15,700, Nigeria 9,900, Asia 17,400, Bangladesh 11,000. And don't be fooled by Europe's number of 20,800 -- diversity means we are importing Europe's Pakistanis, Moroccans, Algerians, etc., and we know how well they have integrated into those societies.

[IWontGetOvertheDam]

This is why we can't have nice things.

[kelind10]

those somalis are fleeing a country that has been torn apart by civil war for 20 years. they have nothing left in their own country and are now coming to the US. I come from an area that has taken in a lot of the somali immigrants, and they have integrated fairly well and are not leeching off of welfare systems like people claim, and they are not causing religious tension like you seem to be implying.

[SgtBootz]

Legalize weed.

[themeaningoflife38]

Hey Mr President-how about reopening the JFK murder investigation.

[justme252009]

I love President Obama
