Obama Presser
— Ace

I've put the other post into draft because this is breaking and live.

Link to the live feed here.

Obama began his photo op by reiterating the claim that The Middle Class is his highest priority, then segued, awkwardly, to surveillance and terrorism. (Update: Jones in CO points out he worked in #AndTheMiddleClass twice, and that was just in his opening sentences.)

If not that then it's a Checklist Press Conference followed by a vacation escape hatch buffer so no one will remember/debate what he said. This charade will get him at least six months off from open press conferences so he can focus on campaigning.

475 How would you like to have to sit in his meetings day after day? Posted by: Die Trying at August 09, 2013 03:51 PM (w7J/R) Oh, I imagine that doesn't actually happen very much. When you start work at 10am and leave for the golf course at 1, there isn't a lot of time for meetings. He lets Jarrett handle that. Or one of his other Chicago Communist Mafia buddies.

476 468 464 455 This guy sure likes to suck his own dick. --- We knew he liked dick. We just weren't sure if he was flexible enough to do that. Posted by: Brandon In Baton Rouge It's detachable - Michelle usually keeps it in a box under the bed (when she is not wearing it). --- He apparently lost it the other night while he was drunk. It turned up on a blanket next to a broken toaster oven on Second Avenue.

478 That's all this fucker does is engage in hypotheticals.

There are those who claim that he also engages in theoreticals, as well.

483 324 I had no idea there were democrat civil libertarians and republican civil libertarians. I thought there were just civil libertarians. Until he mentioned democratic civil libertarians. Learn something new every day.

Republican civil libertarians believe in upholding the integrity of civil rights like the freedom of association, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Fourth Amendment, the "enumerated powers" concept of the entire Constitution itself, and (when changing the Constitutional rules) adhering to the proper amendment procedure. 

Democrat civil libertarians believe in enforcing the "right" to make other people pay for their supporters' crap.

488 >>It turned up on a blanket next to a broken toaster oven on Second Avenue.

People sometimes tell me I should get it permanently attached,
but I don't know.
Even though sometimes it's a pain in the ass,
I like having a detachable penis

Posted by: farmersusie at August 09, 2013 03:55 PM (ydb8s)

Putin's press folks are good. In the last two days they're floating a picture of putin walking alone mourning the death of his first judo coach and they are pointing out that he wished GWB good luck with his stent.  They also wanted to know if the prez did the same.

495 The Blaze has a White House press pass now. Even though they will be shamefully ridiculed along with the Daily Caller for any questions their press people ask, maybe Obama will accidentally call on them one day! The crumbs I keep hoping to be thrown from this admin is depressing.

496 Mr. President, who - precisely - is the Middle Class?

If they bit you on the ass, would you (a) know it was the middle class, and (b) know it was your ass?
