Town Hall Bitchez!
really shiny video - so real and vivid
Is it going to end with ? -- So please buy our Treasury bonds will you ? Please Please will ya ? hanh ?
Not Town Hall meeting ....it's a congregation of the local Marxists who always give the Chicago Commie a warm 'Welcome Comrade President'
The folks in that audience look like brain dead morons. This is a propaganda piece put out by the ministry to pacify the unproductive class.
BINGO!!!

Happy 19th of April, all you fellow Revolutionaries.
It's a campaign whistle stop designed to offer promises that can't be kept and to sucker in fools to vote for him that don't know that.
The Chinese wanted him to give a little show for their 3 trillion $ reserves.
So if you ever wondered what 3 trillion would buy you:
a internet movie.
I think i'd rather have a T-shirt...
Barack Obama ran for president as a man of the people, standing up to Wall Street as the global economy melted down in that fateful fall of 2008.
Disillusioned. He was an empty suit from day one. A bunch of thugs from Chicago up for sale. No one on wall street was afraid of this guy. Then he gave jobs to summers, geithner, and now Elizabeth Warren (regulators! Mount up!).
HL Meneken said it best: you only ever vote against things. Never for anything.
Bullseye!
Robert Rubin does so need to be in jail.
He almost looks like a real human.
Where are the styrofoam pillars ?
The One requires the traditional set dressing for an emperor. Or a god.
Emperors can't be clones, I saw'ed their handbook.
Pixar can be proud!
But I found toy story better...
Riveting, complex, and gritty. Bravo.

Obama, yo are a TOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!
WOW. Obama looks and sounds much worse than a no-good used car salesman from a Chicago gutter.
Looking at imbeciles who applauded him, I feel very sorry for America.
It appears we are living in some shitty African country like Zimbabwe. Well, we are getting there...
imbeciles who applauded him
Trained monkeys clapping where the laff track is supposd to start.
Barry Soetoro -- Marketing Manager -- Southside GM:
2012 GM Volt: Read -- 1982 Chrysler K-Car... Would you buy a used car from this tele-prompterin' Mofo?
funny stuff
What he really meant to say to the lady in the white jacket - you look like you got a lot of lard in you and I could really use an extra set of handles.
trucked in, drugged, clapping seals.
he s going to kill us - yeah, cheer, cheer
LOL. Lookslike they are all sniffed paint and glue. Let the lies continue.
And someone just passed out after his rambling 7 minute blah blah answer to a question and he never touched on the subject.
There's a reason this guy never actually appears in public.
http://forensicstatistician.wordpress.com/2011/04/13/hi-ho-silver/
someone needs to ask some real questions...I would... see above
Bitching, whining and blaming everyone else. Same shit different day.
Oh fuck no, I used up all of my vomit buckets on the last Obama video on ZH.
He's got that head-bobbing, two-teleprompter syncopation thang going!
Barry...you just rock.
Ohh, I thought he was watching a tennis match.
I am quite simply going to buy every 3X Bear ETF in sight as he approaches the microphone, and watch my capital grow with each "let me make this clear"
Nearly an hour later, I am watching my capital increase as the market slowly sinks with every word our President says. 3X Bear ETFs ticking up higher and higher: TZA above $38 again, etc. etc. This is called the "Bear Obama" trade, i.e. the market cannot bear him any more.
Were do they get these chumps actualy listening to the Rockefellow minion?
It's the Oprah audience, silly.
LOL all he can do is spew this BS at kids, theyre the only ones fooled at all.
He's gonna look under the couch cushions for spare change? Oh that should fix it.
They found $353 million in "cuts" in the 2010 budget under the congressional couches in Washington D.C.
What a joke; and it's on US.
Remember that video of W reading a children's book to some Florida kindergarten children? It is as if Obama does this now with the entire nation.
He's addressing the second derivative, the reduction of the rate of increase in deficit. And not even that is true...
Coming to you from an alternate reality...
the future makes me very tense
Years of the Modern
by Walt Whitman
(1819-1892)
Years of the modern! years of the unperform'd!
Your horizon rises, I see it parting away for more august dramas,
I see not America only, not only Liberty's nation but other nations preparing,
I see tremendous entrances and exits, new combinations, the solidarity of races,
I see that force advancing with irresistible power on the world's stage,
(Have the old forces, the old wars, played their parts? are the acts suitable to them closed?)
I see Freedom, completely arm'd and victorious and very haughty,
with Law on one side and Peace on the other,
A stupendous trio all issuing forth against the idea of caste;
What historic denouements are these we so rapidly approach?
I see men marching and countermarching by swift millions,
I see the frontiers and boundaries of the old aristocracies broken,
I see the landmarks of European kings removed,
I see this day the People beginning their landmarks, (all others give way;)
Never were such sharp questions ask'd as this day,
Never was average man, his soul, more energetic, more like a God,
Lo, how he urges and urges, leaving the masses no rest!
His daring foot is on land and sea everywhere, he colonizes the Pacific, the archipelagoes,
With the steamship, the electric telegraph, the newspaper, the wholesale engines of war,
With these and the world-spreading factories he interlinks all geography, all lands;
What whispers are these O lands, running ahead of you, passing under the seas?
Are all nations communing? is there going to be but one heart to the globe?
Is humanity forming en-masse? for lo, tyrants tremble, crowns grow dim,
The earth, restive, confronts a new era, perhaps a general divine war,
No one knows what will happen next, such portents fill the days and nights;
Years prophetical! the space ahead as I walk, as I vainly try to pierce it, is full of phantoms,
Unborn deeds, things soon to be, project their shapes around me,
This incredible rush and heat, this strange ecstatic fever of dreams O years!
Your dreams O years, how they penetrate through me! (I know not whether I sleep or wake;)
The perform'd America and Europe grow dim, retiring in shadow behind me,
The unperform'd, more gigantic than ever, advance, advance upon me.
notice that even the obama business channel wont broadcast
burnett is going crazy - her god is on
can't watch it...get nauseous "end tax cuts for the wealthiest americans..." oh, you mean your handlers? hmmm
guess he means GS, JPM, Google, Soros, Unions etc
add SONY and Jamie Fox

does the teleprompter do hollywood
NATIONAL SECURITY!
Why does it look like everyone in the video has been recorded infront of a blue screen then composed into a video?
Noticed that as well. His town hall is probably two miles under ground in a bunker in front of a green screen with the best CGI animation ever.
At least they managed to edit out the strings.
He should follow Fidel Castro's example and step down immediately.
Geesuz, this is the most pathetic shit I've ever watched. No one there thinks, "This guy is a fucking retard!" Just total milk toast fucking nonsense. Fucking bullshit! Invest in infrastructure? Only a small fraction of the budget is used for roads and infrastructure. Fuck you Obama!
"Infrastructure" now means c-level banker compensation packages.
and new union halls and elementary schools named after barack and obiden
They shut one school down that was named after him in Newark, so that's one less.
I feel ya.
ALright.......already rolled out "millionaires/billionairs" and "autistic children.........and he fails to mention his just released taxes show he paid 27% of his income as taxes and Biden paid 23%..........WHY DIDN'T HE PAY THE CLINTON ERA RATES OF 39%?
...will be going to have been commencing to prepare to start to think about the possibility of cutting...
High Speed Rail - hmmmmmmmmmmm
I think I could walk to Florida and back from NYC 1000 times before this thing gets environmental approval
I'm thinking rail, tar, and feathers.
How about "Highspeed-Rail" tar and feathers...
What a bunch of socialist fools......what he forgets is that most of the progress of America was through the private sector.....not all and some not initially....but in the end a substantial part of the investment that lead to jobs and profits.
Classic Obama - completely ignores the middle.

WIND POWERED PLANES? CLEAN ENERGY ? GREEN JOBS? ITS "PUFF PUFF PASS MR PRESIDENT"!
Geithner: no risk U.S. will lose AAA credit rating
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Geithner-no-risk-US-will-lose-rb-203589541...
AAA all the way to complete and total collapse.
joseph's clan is still flipping the CDOs on cheops
If the Obama Administration is really upset with S&P for downgraded our nation’s debt, then they should go after this rating agency for deliberately keeping the mortgage market artificially inflated by continuing to give mortgage-backed securities a AAA rating when they should have been rating them as junk. But the Obama Administration won’t do this because if they did, then they would also have to go after Goldman Sachs for lying to their investors about how mortgage-backed securities were a safe and secure investment.
And we know that Goldman was lying about this because there is no other way to explain how they made enormous profits by making side bets that the mortgage market would collapse. But with a presidential election just around the corner, the Obama Administration can’t afford to expose the fact that their largest campaign donor should be put behind bars. And Obama is too consumed by greed to ever turn down any of the lucrative deals that awaits him when he leaves public office, courtesy of Goldman Sachs.
In order for Obama to maximize his own personal wealth, he knows, as any aider and abettor of financial crimes would know, that he must protect Goldman at all costs.

Puke Gag I think i need a drink this early. WTF, someone please tell him to shut the F up.
what President did you not feel the same way about?
All the superficial nonsense would easily apply across the board. Of course if I thought the vitriol was from some sophomoric genetic basis, I'd probably vote for him as a vote against that particular psychosis. There is no way in hell I'm playin' for "team racist" in this life or any other.
there goes two minutes I'll never get back.
quoting your wife after sex I see :)
Tru dat.
Been awhile since she's even said anything.
shared sacrifice means to me the 52% that do not pay anything...should pay something.....to him it means the 48% that do pay...need to pay more...that is shared....
There's just no understanding of the fact that if a "rich" person and a poor person both pay 15% of their income in taxes the end result is fair.
And please no more video links that autoplay. I can't stand listenting to this idiot. The dingbat supporters are even worse.
It's untrue that 52% of Americans "do not pay anything." But I agree that we're all undertaxed, especially the top tier.
http://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/04/13/who-doesnt-pay-taxes/
We are not undertaxed. We are over-serviced by an over-zealous, over-confident, incompetent, counter-productive gubmint headed by a hideously dishonest, sophomoric boob with no leadership abilities, a completely feckless fellow ardently supported by tech-addled star-struck drones incapable of independent thought. They are our future and there are legions more of them coming and that is why you'd best be ready to fend for yourself in decades to come.
Yea sure, things are really as rosy as all that.
What exactly is this guy leading?
Its a little interesting to turn the volume off and watch the body language and facial expressions of the hand picked central casting audience behind Il Duce.
No silver haired vets or baby boomers in the mix.
That constituency will be dead soon enough under Obamacare.
Just fresh faced free lunch storm troopers ready to hand the FRB the keys to the kingdom.
I say the chance of another presidential election is only 50/50.
I just puked...now I have dry heaves
DEAR FELLOW IDIOTS!!
AS SOON I A WILL LEAVE OFFICE!
THE IDIOT WHO WILL BE PRESIDENT AFTER ME!
WILL CLEAN UP MY MESS!
AND REDUCE THE DEFICIT!!
THIS IS MY PLAN!
I CAME UP WITH IT!
ME!
OBAMARAMA THE GREAT!
and if not, you shouldn't have voted for him so it's your fault
So the people that gave Obozo the handouts are responsible for him being president - Stop this program immediately!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOW THE FU$K IS "CLEAN ENERGY" GOING TO HELP PEOPLE AT THE PUMP IN THE NEXT, OH, 25-30 YEARS? AND IF HE IS THE EXAMPLE, WE SHOULD NOT FUND SCHOLARSHIPS SO WE DONT GET ANOTHER DIPSHI$ LIKE OBAMA.....TAKE ECON 101 DUDE!
Great, the video plays AUTOMATICALLY! Can we not have a play button option to avoid seeing/hearing him unless we want to?
Is that too much to ask?
EXACTLY........

"We need to live within our means, past generations have spent without regard to the debt. " Obama
Mr Obama you have borrowed more than any administration before you. You haven't done anything that you promised. Repeal the Patriot Act, Stopping the Iraq war, Making the government transparent, Closing Guantanamo, Cracking down on Wallstreet, ect.. Why would we believe one fucking word you utter, Sir you and your administration are an Obamanation.
Theres those pearly whites I would love to knock down Obamas throat so far,that his asshole had a smile.
Barack Obama sucks Bankster Cock.
AND he swallows.
Can he answer a question in less than SIX MILLION WORDS ??????
Only if the teleprompter says so...
"The Future will be better Tomorrow" - Dan Quayle
AND WE SHOULD LIE TO THE OLD PEOPLE AND PRETEND WE DONT HAVE A PROBLEM? POLITICS PLAYED ALONG THE WAY......TOO DIVIDED? YES, THE SOCIALIST WILL BE OUT OF OFFICE IN NOV 2012
PLEASE DEFINE : (1) "FAIR" (2) "SHARED INTEREST" (3) "SPECIAL INTEREST" (4) "LIVING WITHIN OUR MEANS"
Living within our means - unending annual trillion dollar deficits.
1. Fair: Whatever pleases GS and JPM should be transfered and payed by Joe Idiot
2. Shared Interest: Obama / GS / JPM
3. Special interest: Obama's Cayman account
4. Living within our means: They spend it, you pay it.
Wasn't that in the "2008 Blueprint For Change" ??
I guess Numb Nutz Barry did not explain the change is in your pocket...
Damn NSA surveillance double posts...
Yes You! (with Denzel voice)
Shocking first choice............any education cuts? WHAT PLAN? OBAMA'S BUDGET SHOWS DEFICITS 41% ABOVE THE UNSUSTAINABLE "BASELINE"........WHERE IS HIS PLAN?
Da plan will come after several town hall meetings and whoosh move on the next thing. I am still waiting on the Shovel Ready projects and Jobs from 2 years ago.
What's the deal with that little American flag lapel that is all the rage among politicians? It smacks of cultural insanity. If one is compelled to evidence that they are operating in the interest of the nation by wearing a lapel, well...
well if you don't wear the pin du jour you will be accused of being AGAINST whatever it is that the pin of the other guy is FOR.
Because there are ONLY TWO STATES of existence.
HOW DO THEY "RACE TO THE TOP" WHEN THEY HAVE UNIONIZED TEACHERS? DROPOUT FACTORIES? EDUCATION CZAR? INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS? DEFINE "EXCELLENCE"
Boy I sure wish some of you yahoos were leading the nation. That would be much better.
A fucking retarded squirrel with syphilis would do a better job than this cock sucker.
,one leg, no hands, blind, dumb and deaf...
*Shorts US Dollar and goes long physical Gold, Silver, lead, and food.*
BANKS SKIMMING PROFITS? OH RIGHT, BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT HAS NO ADMIN COSTS RIGHT?
Hey that's where they filmed the Apollo missions
sumbits I wondered where they did that
OTAY evabudy giv it up y'all for da puppet!!
(The million dollar question is Where is Blythe and Jamie the organ grinders)
There is a 15% disparity between those who support his policies and direction (37%), and those who "like" him. The reason that it exists, is too many people are afraid to voice displeasure of him personally, for fear of having that red "R" carved in their foreheads. Anxious to see if they'll grow any onions in the voting booth!
Nah we're beyong giving a rat's ass.
This is war
Exactly!
Is there no escaping these idiots in government?
April 19, 2011 "An Orange County Republican Party official who sent an email that portrays President Obama's face superimposed on a chimpanzee with the words: "Now you know why -- No birth certificate!" apologized for her action but insisted she's not a racist.
...Davenport had said "in no way did I even consider the fact he's half black when I sent out the email."
BTW this guy is what life is all about
Amazing video of stills he takes of various subjects.. Pass it on
Peace
http://vimeo.com/22439234
the audience thought they were going to the last Oprah show!
This isn't it?
same old progressive bs, plenty of obama gas in that room, looks like it could be GW university, same place where they constructed a box around the statute of old George on Martin's day. This place is a bastian for graduate study post traumatic progressivism freeloading.
Sorry, but I can no longer bear to listen to the Teleprompter Tyrant. No a single syllable from his mouth can be believed. He is the Charlatan in Chief!
Save me Obama! Save me!
I always appreciate it when Mr. President takes time away from his golf game to talk to the common man about the need to sacrifice. It shows he cares and understands what the common man is going thru. I wonder how much we save in greens fees everytime he talks?
We only save the tax deductions the rich guy taking him golfing was going to claim. Actually he probably going to take the deduction anyways.
UH OH! Obama taking somewhat unprepared questions? OBAMA hey man NEVER GO FULL RETARD!!
See? Now youre stuttering, the guy who asked the question is goin 'huh'? Youre ust meandering around talking totaly off the subject....remember Simple Jack Obama! NEVER go full retard!
Yes, we all miss the good old (boy) days...
http://youtu.be/KzWrDqPkjK4
That will be the day that I would use the precious time I have on this earth watching or listening or reading a politician.
I think, no I'm sure, that I would rather have boiling oil poured in my ears and very sharp screw-type gutter spikes pushed violently into my eyes.
You shouldn't encourage anyone to do this more than once a month, if that.
Once media stops paying constant attention to their every utterance, and instead focuses on their voting record, their police record, their campaign promises vs their performance, in other words their RESULTS, maybe then they'll wise up and govern with some sense of honor, morality, legality, justice, and common sense.
In the meantime I will wait with bait on my breath for the Messiah instead.
Why in the world would you even listen these garbage? If I wanted to listen to people to people lie to me, then I would put on FOX or CNN. Yep, i checked out from listening to these bozos long ago.
For that wise comment, you should immedately upgrade your avatar to:
WAaaayyy above average.
With the headline of deficit reduction, he gives introductory remarks replete with spending initiatives. Then he rallies his troops around the word "fair." What the fuck is this guy talking about? Does he ever notice that nothing he says actually makes any sense? Green energy expenditures, Pell grants, veteran post traumatic stress care...and on and on....yeah, sounds like we are well on our way to deficit reduction.
So as our president literally demonstrates his disassociated logic, it seems fitting then that we should go ahead and rally the market and forget about the S&P downgrade of expectations because, after all, everything Obama is saying right now is probably already fucking "priced in."
Hello again, cosmic bunny hole.
Question: How do you know when Obama is lying?
Answer: His lips are moving!
i thought they became more purple
"Social Security will be there when you retire" and Pixie Dust will fuel our SUV's.
Define, "Be There"?
If ten cents is in the fund to pay you, technically, it's "There".
These con artists are just fellow Clintonites who have managed to use language and the prostitutes in the media to "perform".
They are all just actors. It's all just a fiction. A distraction, for the brain-dead, an amusement.
This guy is a joke, I have to turn this off as I'm yelling at my computer and my neighbors are going to try to have me committed.
Obama is to deficit reduction what sanitary is to napkin.
This is your Oprah and the View President.
How about just one good goddamn question. Prescripted.
Holy shit. I clicked on this link and then I heard some familiar droning noise. Some worthless drivel not unlike that of my former mother in law.
Mouth opens, bullshit spews forth.
Long Wood Chips Bitchez!
LMFAO!
Oil prices are high due to speculators .. right!
Has nothing to do with printing money Mr. President - dahhh
and then comes the bullshit biofuel argument, despite the fact that every day 15'000 children die of hunger.
I can't listen to him any longer
Gasoline is the same price it was in 1964 if your buying it with 90% Silver quarters.
just plug you car in and charge. It's FREE!!
If the power company catches you stealing electricity you're screwed big time.
Don't know if anyone was watching cnbc a few minutes ago-- Steve Jizzman w. Timmy Guns Geithner talking about the US debt picture is better than whats being said. If one watches closely Tim was having some trouble reading the teleprompter. Anyone that believes that anything on media coming from government isn't 100% staged is out of their fucking minds.
That how we invented the Internet - Wait I thought Al Gore did that????? Obama helped him? What a f-in retard
clean tech deficit bitch
