okay so far this presser sucks...the media really needs lessons about HOW to be journalists and ask Questions for the People...
Obama is doing great- he sounds so strong...and clear.....firm...no shit Chi-town Obama....
Tuned in about 8:30, he's doing well so far! My husband commented "Can you imagine Bush answering any of these questions?"
ReplyDeleteOh, and Enigma, I hope you feel better. Stomach bugs are the pits!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting comment re: bipartisanship that someone asked. He says maybe he learned a lesson, that the way to go about it is not put in the provisions he knows they'd want, ahead of time, as he did this time with tax breaks; and that way they will add them in themselves and it will make it feel more participative.
ReplyDeleteno no he is doing a GREAT JOB, he is controlling the presser, he is answering questions, the press is just not used to this...
