"He is the Man Who Won't Listen to Anybody, so why should anybody listen to him? . . . I will leave that unhappy duty to others. I am tired of Barack Obama. There's nothing new there. His speeches are like 'Groundhog Day.' " --Michael Goodwin, NY Post

"The World's Greatest Orator is almost always uninspiring, condescending, self-aggrandizing, peevish and grim." --James Taranto, Wall Street Journal

YEAH there is an EASY way to get out of this !! Put peoples money back into their hands! You see...for us who work...we get taxes taken out! mine at the rate of 30% SO! if you give me my 30% (and all the other tax payers their money) THATS A LOT OF MONEY EACH MONTH! so they take almost $2000 every month.... well if thy let me spen 1000 of that each month.... and everyone else gets their money (which they EARN) we will ALL spend it... causing STIMULATION! GET IT!???????

I don't even know where to start with you. If you have a better plan than the Obama administration, let's hear it. Otherwise, just shut the hell up and let them work to get us through this crisis!

Democrats better hope that Obama is not Lincoln because Lincoln led a civil war in America in which more than 600,000 Americans died and that was when the population wasn't as big as it is now.

Lincoln a good soul, freed slaves. Obama an evil soul, freeing Terrorist in Gitmo. Lincoln was known as "Honest Abe", Obama is known as a Liar. Lincoln only spend $700 while in office, Obama is going to put the country in debt for generations to come.

Mr. President, you are a life saver for the world's economy. I just hope the people would understand what you are trying to do. At least you are trying to do something. Where were the Republicans when Bush was big spending on a war that had noting to do for America? They are a bunch of jokers. God bless you and your family. You are always in my prayers.

tlafountains: you talk as if Obama designed press conferences.

And, do you understand the concept of s trimulus package? The government spends money directly on things which create jobs immediately.

Dissenters are married to the idea that only tax cuts will stimulate the economy, and anything else is bad. I suggest you do some reasearch into the success and failure rates of tax cuts vs. spending, during recessions. I think you'll be surprised.

i love the censorship that the press has to follow! NO ONE can ask a question unless i see and prepare for it first! this guy is a JOKE he is "selling" the American people a LIE, AGAIN! and DUMB America (according to novembers polls thats 53%) will buy into this guy! and his PORK package! this guy is scum and needs to be stopped.... before its too late!

This man campaigned on "Hope" and all he can talk about is doom and gloom. This is change we can believe in?
