Is anyone else as tired of seeing the President give speeches on television as I am? I don't remember any other President hitting the airwaves on an every day basis the way Obama does. He must have got the teleprompter fixed!
I know he's trying to sell us on his healthcare plan, but please give us a break! These 2 hour speeches are starting to get on my nerves. What can he possibly say today that he hasn't said yesterday or the day before?
Now I'm all for the President giving us updates from time to time, but every day? Count the days if you don't believe me. If George W. Bush had done something like this the media wouldn't have covered it. Or they would have been ripping him apart. But Obama can stand up there and hem and haw all over the place when he doesn't have his teleprompter running, no one says a word.
Well, I don't know about you but I'm certainly suffering from Obama overload. The sad thing is when he does have something important to say, people will be tuning him out. I guess his sympathisers can't get enough of him, and I will admit, I'm not interested in hearing one more time how he inherited this huge deficit.
It's been 8 months he's been in office and he is still laying the deficit blame at G.W.'s feet.
I think it's high time he owned the mess he's made. G.W. only went along with the bail out for the banks and car companies becuase he was leaving and Obama asked him to support him. So he did and Obama has the nerve to blame it on him!
I heard someone in the Grand Junction crowd complain today because he was playing the same old tune. And I agree, it's time he got over himself.
If Obama doesn't have anything better to do than run around the country making speeches, I can think of a few things. Like reading the healthcare bill that is supposed to be his baby and he doesn't even know what's in it. Like try to save Social Security. Like strategize to find Osama Bin Ladin and win the war in Afghanistan. Like find somewhere for the Gitmo prisoners to go if he really intends to close the base.
There are a few issues awaiting resolution, if he's not forgotten that healthcare isn't the only cause for concern in this country.
Give us a break, Mr. President. We don't need another TV star; we have plenty of those as it is. Do the job you were hired to do. ~
