I don't have a strong enough stomach to watch it.
But I'll sit back and enjoy your commentary as I enjoy my wine.

you have to watch the warm up act to fully appreciate the main attraction -- jindal. :-)
-
this thing is going to last an HOUR? holy . . .
he is going to try to sound more "positive", instead of doing the chicken little, which has been his shtick for the past month.
-

I'm not watching any of it. I refuse. They will all disappoint me and make me sad. It's inevitable.
I'm sort of in a woe-is-me mode this evening. Just ignore me.
-
I can't watch it either. The man repulses me in more than a creepy way. He's more than a decent Christian should have to endure.
Clinton tickled my vomit switch, for sure, but nothing compared to what this fraud does to me.
-
Wrong place for this................this doesn't conform to the TOU of this area.
What will be discussed here has nothing to do with news but the opinions of those listening and posting...............nothing newsworthy is involved in this

Is this the "official" thread to talk about the speeches? There seems to be one in politics as well. I only ask because I wish to partake in the "Obama speech, live thread and drinking game".
Obama's drinking words:
1 drink for the word "sacrifice"
1 drink for the word "Uhhh"
2 drinks for the words "common purpose"
3 drinks for the words "shared sacrifice"
Jindal's drinking words:
1 drink for the word "alternative"
1 drink for the word "conservative"
2 drinks for the word "nationalisation"
3 drinks for the word "porkulous"
You have two minutes to gather your beers or wine. I'm going with 7&7's so I may not make it to Jindal's speech. :o

this speech is by definition a breaking news event. stop being a hemorrhoid about it. if you hadn't tried to be so cute with your title, maybe I would have known what the hell it was.

I swear to God, I thought he was going to accept an oscar. "I'd like to thank all of the little people . . . . " :whatever:

That is a liberal contempt thing -- it is to prove HE is in control.
Bush always was prompt -- he understood what "respect" means.
So what if the networks lose millions in advertising to hold this speech...Screw the corporations... :whatever:

Undies, you've finally put into words what I've been thinking for so long. I can't stand how he acts like he's the world's greatest authority on everything and he is "he who must be obeyed".
-
oil. healthcare. education. here we go. I have no idea what this has to do with the mortgage crisis, which is how all of this started, but that is how he is going to fix it, apparently.
-
Wow. America sucked before Obama. :whatever: :whatever:
it's bush's fault. and he seemed to even point the finger at clinton.
-
That is a liberal contempt thing -- it is to prove HE is in control.
Bush always was prompt -- he understood what "respect" means.
Clinton was never prompt--he never understood what "respect" means.

Porkulous has saved us??? this guy is non-stop comedy.
-
WE, I hope your head doesn't explode! lol
You voted for this idiot, didn't you?
-
this is flat. he was much, much better as a candidate, when all he had to do was demonize bush, pledge to fix the ocean, and chant "yes, we can".
-
Nobody messes with Joe? He soils himself regularly on his own.
-
"Nobody messes with Joe!" WTF? Joe can't even get out of his own way.

he is still a candidate. It will be a non-stop campaign for 4 years.
-
"Nobody messes with Joe!" WTF? Joe can't even get out of his own way.
I think this translates into, "you won't see joe for the next three years, and here is why . . . "

The first step in the end of the country...

Doncha wish his teleprompter would blow a fuse. Talk about exposing an idiot fraud! He'd have to leave the stage.

No, but he wants you to forget it and for those that don't know it to not find out. It's called "dishonesty". It's the foundation of liberalism.

-
before this speech is over, being a "wall street executive" is going to be a criminal offense.

It's about picking winners and losers in the economy. It's about helping dem voters first.
Obama is an economic dumbass.

He is asking Congress to pass laws making us a socialist state.

this is another trillion dollars just in the past 30 minutes. we are losing focus on the magnitude of these numbers.
-
Not for nothing but we didn't invent the automobile as far as I know.
http://inventors.about.com/library/weekly/aacarsgasa.htm
The very first self-powered road vehicles were powered by steam engines and by that definition Nicolas Joseph Cugnot of France built the first automobile in 1769 - recognized by the British Royal Automobile Club and the Automobile Club de France as being the first. So why do so many history books say that the automobile was invented by either Gottlieb Daimler or Karl Benz? It is because both Daimler and Benz invented highly successful and practical gasoline-powered vehicles that ushered in the age of modern automobiles

It's just a speech. Presidents, even phony ones, aren't the be-all-that-ends-all. All this fool is doing is building himself a huge mountain he can't climb.
-

3 TRILLION IN THE LAST MONTH........................and spending less would never bring the deficit down, but spending 3 TRILLION ****ING DOLLARS does.

So, I wonder how many drug reps are going to lose thier jobs after drug companies fail?
How many would-be great doctors are going to have their hands tied behind their backs because a new procedure won't be approved by a DC beaurocrat?
America was the country to come to for world-class healthcare....this idiot will ruin it.
-
I'm going to have to make it a point to listen to Rush tomorrow.
-
I wonder if using a national crisis to further your own political ends can be construed as treasonous . . .
-
Well he did just say that Health care ****up will not wait for a year :bird:

I have to remind myself daily that The One is not really The One. The Real One is watching out for us. That's why I have that bible verse in my signature. It puts things in perspective.
But I still want to punch every person who proudly voted for Obama in the mouth.
-

If that's the case, the real One is AWOL.
-
If that's the case, the real One is AWOL.
No, He's not.
-
So far, I've come to this conclusion that this empty suit is no longer pushing the country towards mediocrity...He wants a country of underachievers...so the gov't could "dictate". no pun.
-
Now he wants to spend more on government proganda centers.

Undies is right. All he's doing is writing a check with his mouth that his ass can't cash.

Did that asshat just say going to college would be mandatory?

A lot of things will be mandatory if Obama gets his way.
-
I wonder if using a national crisis to further your own political ends can be construed as treasonous . . .
Why? FDR did it...
-
No, He's not.
If he wasn't, we wouldn't have the biggest dipshit ever elected to office as the POTUS.
-
National service or national serfdom? :thatsright:
-
here comes the deficit; okay, whatcha gonna do?
-
National service or national serfdom? :thatsright:
Try slavery!
-
"with the deficit that we inherited" . . . lightweight.
-
Too late on the deficit dumbass. :banghead: :banghead:
-
I'm waiting for the the
war peace talk?
-
National service or national serfdom? :thatsright:
who had the ayn rand quote about servants and masters for their sig?
-
A recovery plan free of "ear marks"
That got a laugh out of some in the Repub side of the aisle.
-
A lot of things will be mandatory if Obama gets his way.
.....and by God, they'll lower the standards.....again, to make it a reality. Just think, college-educated oil changers. WOW! Wouldn't that be something? Guess I'd have to get my PhD just to be in my field of network security. ::)
-
If he wasn't, we wouldn't have the biggest dipshit ever elected to office as the POTUS.
I can't begin to understand why things happen the way they do. But I trust that we will be taken care of in spite of it all. The bible promises us that.
-
hey, did you know that the stimulus was free of earmarks? He just said so. and he is still talking about going through the budget "line by line", like he has the constitutional authority to do anything about it.
-
Now he's trying to really pull the wool over the dumb ****'s eyes saying we won't pass on a deficit to our children.
Can't stand him with that "deficit we inherited" crack. It can't get any better---just showed a pic of Diane Fienstein. I need to go find my stress ball and start squeezing it.
-
Eliminate no bid contracts? Oh man, the soldiers are ****ed.
-
who had the ayn rand quote about servants and masters for their sig?
I used too. lol
-
Saving 2 trillion over the next decade, while they are spending 2 trillion a month?
How th **** does that add up?
And... he just said he wants to gut the military.
-
reduce the defense budget of "cold war weapons that we don't use", eliminate inefficiency in the medical industry, and he is going to raise taxes. and there is the $250K limit again.
-
The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master.
Ayn Rand
-
i had a feeling the "savings" on the deficit would come out of military budgets...
ok, back to DVR-land... this is looking like a nightmare
-
We have GOT to take over at least one house of Congress in 2010.
-
What checks? I thought there were no stimulus checks, just $13 a paycheck less on taxes paid?
I feel so much better now. He won't raise our taxes til we go over $250k. How reassuring.
The market will tank tomorrow. Glad we didn't buy any stocks today.
-
"hide the price"of the war? congress appropriated every penny. a congress that was led by your party for the past two years.
-

Stay the **** out of my way and leave my ****ing money alone.

yeah, all I want out of him is to keep the awesome authority of the central government out of my life.
-
whew....
Thank God that's over.
Will be interesting to see Jindal's response.

How bout the no bid Alaskan Native contracts ****wit

Hell I'll clap just because I'm happy it's over!

From Michelle Malkin's site:
Update 10:00pm Eastern. Obama salutes the troops. Longest Democrats have ever applauded our troops in the last 8 years.

Glad I'm not playing the "drink every time the word f*ck" is used in here game :-)
We're so screwed. I hope Jindal knocks it out of the park.
I resemble this remark
-
I read someplace that obama has spent more in his first month in office than bush spent on iraq, afghanistan, and katrina combined.
-
stop that! :asssmack:

Hey.........where's mine :hyper:

Hey I gave you a high five for it and I get a spanking? Come to think of it, I guess I owe you another high five a little later. :-)

Fox has Krauthammer and Juan Williams doing the commentary. Glad this is over.

where is maxine waters? I figured she would be on camera constantly . . .

maddow just called the obama tax cut "the largest tax cut in history". someone failed economics, history, and math.

Wow, who would have thought that genital mutilation would be a turn on...oh wait...you're one of those guys.... :evillaugh:

Obama may just turn Maddox on to men. If anyone could, he would.
-
Jindal is on
-
the sound is awful. and the inflection in his voice seems a bit over-rehearsed.
-
the sound is better on MSNBC than foxnews.
-
kind of a bland speech so far. Not bad but not great so far.
On edit:
Good story on Katrina "government is not the answer"
-
Jindal's speech is pretty unimpressive so far.
-
kind of a bland speech so far. Not bad but not great so far.
the message is infinitely superior . . . but he seems overly stage managed so far, a la sarah palin. they should have let bobby be bobby.
-
For ****'s sake, Alan Colmes just spoke over Jindal's speech and then went to commercial...what a deceitful mother****er... :censored:
I'll catch the replay tonight when I get home...
-
he has actually cut earmarks, AND taxes. ah, accomplishments. refreshing.
-
He sounds to much like Mr. Rodgers. :(
Don't talk to us like we are children Bobby, your idea's are sound.
-
the "half underwater and half under indictment" comment was great.
-
Oh damn, Jindal is the exact opposite of Obama. He can speak from the hip with the wit of a scholar, but can't speak in front of a teleprompter worth a damn.
-
Wow, who would have thought that genital mutilation would be a turn on...oh wait...you're one of those guys.... :evillaugh:
It wasn't the good list you made

I'm glad "American's can do anything" was not part of the drinking game.

not a home run. to say the least.

Well, I can take your word for it..maybe staying up to watch a re-run isn't worth it....sighhh
-
Did he at least have any conviction in his tone?? :(
-

Hell, I could have given a better speech.
-
Did he at least have any conviction in his tone?? :(
not IMHO.
-
matthews is criticizing jindal for being the governor of LA, and talking about not taking government money . . . even though that state "did pretty well in the department" . . .
-
Did he at least have any conviction in his tone?? :(
he sounded a bit like a cartoon character.
-
Even Britt Hume said it wasn't Bobby's greatest moment. But what he said made sense. He might not be the polished speaker that Obama is, but his thoughts are better.
Krauthammer is saying that it was tough coming on after Obama, but perhaps Americans will someday listen. Said he had a hard task and did the best he could.
-
Hell, I could have given a better speech.
he had a tough act to follow; a joint session of congress, & etc. but it was pretty much a failure.
-

Jindal is new to the national spotlight. He's a LOT better without a teleprompter:

I suspect that the national party sent someone down there and screwed him up. they should have left him alone; let him write his own speech, and deliver it the way he wanted to.

I wish he would have spoken like that tonight. His speech tonight was a huge disappointment for me.

oh, God. frank luntz is on fox news. I can't watch him, or his knob turners.

That is the best summary I've seen yet. The content of the speech beat Obama hands down but the delivery was pretty weak.
-
He's a Brown grad and a Rhodes Scholar. They should have just let him ad lib it. I've seen the guy speak off the cuff and he's phenomenal.
-

Seemed like he was trying to be too damn nice. If he'd just speak to us like a statesman, he'd have swayed the country. Like WE, I think some Republican operative got to him and told him "how it was supposed to be done". .....which, in fact, was NOT how it was supposed to be done.
-
They trying to force him to be a conservative version of Obama?

yep. and after watching sarah palin get overly managed during the campaign, i am beginning to think that the party apparatus is a bigger part of the problem than I imagined.
-

No, he actually runs something and can speak without a teleprompter, not to mention he IS MENSA quality.

Like those Republican operatives did such a good job with McCain and Palin. :whatever: It's time the Republicans clean house or we're all doomed.
-

I honestly can't tell you what they were trying to do to him. lots of emphasis on bipartisanship, too many anecdotes, and that strange and unnatural inflection in his voice . . . the whole thing was un jindal-like.
-

Wretch, greyt minds think alike. I was trying to post about the same thing. You beat me to it. :-)
Sounds like the focus group on Fox liked what Jindal was saying.
-
Perky Little Katie Couric analyzed his speech in less than a minute thirty with some douchebag reporter who used the phrase "GRAVE differences... Grave" about 60 times. Then they went back to how nice Barack smells and how they wished he would just once look back at them in chemistry class. :whatever:

That is my preference also, but I doubt it's gonna happen.
Too many well connected entrenched players.

Katie Couric. WTFever. Jindal turned down Harvard and Yale medical schools after taking his MCAT to attend Oxford U. as a Rhodes Scholar. I don't think Katie wants to make her idiotic ass look THAT dumb.

let's see. universal health care, universal college education, energy independence, punishment for participating in the free market, punishment for personal success, abandoning iraq (which I don't think he is going to do) . . . did I miss anything?
oh, yes. it is all george bush's fault.

Damn straight. Jindal's response was lacking in focus and professionalism. Barack Hussein Obama's speech was very totalitarian, and just plain weird - all Americans are now going to go back to college for another year and worship the government forever he thinks?
-
I watched the speech (Jindal's). While he was carefully coached, obviously, it was not that bad. I believe it was rather positive. He led me to believe that the republican party was undergoing a revolution. While he clearly speaks much better when not rehearsed...I think he got his point across well.

While his speech was not horrible it was a bit tame. Overall I was disappointed with it.

"Is Bobby Jindal going to have to choke a bitch?"
Srsly, I tried to find a picture of Gov. Jindal the other day for Breaking News. Do you know how hard it is to find a picture of him that doesn't look weird or crazy? Try it and see.
-
Okay, I couldn't hear the Jindal speech, of course, but I watched all of the videos.
Wretched Excess and SaintLouieWoman are right, but we all here already knew that, and we knew that way back to Sarah Palin.
From just watching, and not hearing, it seems to me that Jindal was unnatural, in the way people are not themselves when "handled" and "controlled" and "managed."
We HAVE to get rid of this system, and let our politicians be their natural selves.
I hope to God Palin, Jindal, Steele, &c., &c., &c., break away from that "management" and be themselves.
-
I didn't watch the speech. I knew what Hopey McChangeSnorter was going to say, in a way. I watched Syracuse trounce St. John's University in basketball (the first half--then I hit the hay).
-
the sound is better on MSNBC than foxnews.
Did you happen to catch Kiethy boy's little disgusted "OMG" when Jindal walked out?
-
I didn't watch...had no desire to. I did catch about 5 seconds when I was chanign channels, and heard Barack saying something about "inherited deficit" and saw Pelosi cackling like a hyena in the background. All I neededto see to know I was correct in my decision to not watch.
-
Tess, I saw that this morning on Fox. Incredibly childish, unprofessional, and inappropriate. It would be a firing offense if I owned that network.
Didn't watch much of the speech, as I could only take small doses. Kept switching back and forth. The only thing I have to add, is: What was Nancy Pelosi thinking when she chose her outfit? She looked like a giant piece of phlegm from a chainsmoker with bronchitis. Hideous.

But you have to admit, she has her squat jumps down pretty good. She must have done about 50 of those throughout the speech. I couldn't help but laugh at how half way through Biden ws giving these side glances at her because she just looked like she was sitting on a hot plate. Jump....UP! Jump...UP! Jump...UP! She looked like a jack-in-the-box!
-
Nancy Pelosi was also freaking me out by the way she kept leaping up and down. She was reading some book every now and then, too, but at least she didn't say anything.
Looking at the government depressed me.
Srsly, I tried to find a picture of Gov. Jindal the other day for Breaking News. Do you know how hard it is to find a picture of him that doesn't look weird or crazy? Try it and see.
I think the MSM is out to destroy him. Stupid MSNBC: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/02/25/msnbc-introduction-gov-jindal-oh-god/
They are beyond corrupt. I've wondered if they're wanting us to think "jihadist" with those pictures, because his skin is "dark enough".

[youtube=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vue6M5m-LDk&[/youtube]
I think Bobby's biggest hurdle last night was his scripted response. I think had he been able to respond more realistically it would have been more like this interview. Let's face it, it is harder to be dynamic and thrilling when you are in a room full of the press and camera men with no real feedback than it is to be in a room full of people jumping up and applauding every 3 minutes on Pelosi's command. Not to mention Obama is your quintessential snake oll salesman. He chose politics as his venue. He would have been successful as a Tony Robbins too. Or even a JIm Jones. He has that kind of speaking ability...at least to the masses. Personally, for me he sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard. There is something in his voice which grates against me almost violently. I think it is the bullshit factor.
-
^ditto Tess! I managed to choke down part of it and was sorely disappointed in Jindal's response. But the deck was stacked against him for the reasons you mentioned.
It's time for the GOP to release the hounds.
-
It's time for the GOP to release the hounds.
No, it's time for the damn GOP to leave the hounds, like Jindal, the **** alone to do, act, and speak their damn minds. We've seen "GOP Handling". It doesn't f'n work. It killed Sarah's chances and her reputation. **** the GOP. Hopefully Steele can change my attitude.
-
Maybe I should have said, it's time for us to release the hounds ON the GOP? :-)
I'm 'bout plum wore out and ready to stock up on ammo and canned goods.
