Watch The President Discuss Today's Abysmal Job Numbers Live
Update: the president is now 30 minutes late. Either the guy on the 18th is taking his sweet time or the teleprompter has been hacked.
The much expected TV appearance, which made waves earlier today with everyone expecting Obama to proudly announce a +200K NFP number is about to start. Watch it live here as the scapegoating begins in 5...4...3...

My ears are bleeding. Same old tired lines. Why the fuck am I watching this?
Because you can't make this shit up. And reality tv isn't as good as this scripted show
"Each new job created" Yeah, thos birth-death jobs don't really pay well!
I wounder if people are really happy with those McDonald's jobs?
who cares?? ALL that matters is that McDonald's launched "365black".
Look that shit up

fuck he's aged in 3 years!!
this man has no soul...
He has a soul, but it is currently residing in Jaime Dimon's basement in a large jar.
Dimon balnkfuck and others had that for lunch two years before he was elected.
you two...
who wrote this shit !
Lewis Black.
He's talking this market down...
Things will get better when you are gone.
no no actually they won't unless you mean gone as in gone a hundred years.
They already floated the 'blame Bush' trial balloon earlier with the appearance of the Labor Sec. That went over pretty poorly, I believe. So, IMO, they willl try to place the blame elsewhere. Sounds like....'invest', 'invest'....more taxes and gov't programs. LOL.
This morning I heard: "Raising the debt ceiling will alleviate some of the uncertainty in the markets." -- Obamatron (or words to that effect).
Don't know about that, but I'm CERTAIN that MORE Govt SPENDING is the last thing we need at this point!
Here comes the INFRASCTRUCTRE shovel ready job BS. LOL.
Streamlining the patent process? Who writes this shhit?
Perhaps He shoulda proposed hiring MORE patent examiners, thus killing two birds...
More free trade. That's the answer! It's been working so well so far. Let's just all go get in line for the jobs at McDonald's before it's too late.
'real differences were made'......huh?
Wow! Still selling the infrastructure mime. How are you going to pay for that again? What a turd!
NObama, you s@ck! We are going to increase spending and reduce the deficit at the same time.... LOL
Needs to raise the deficit to put construction workers back to work...??
That was the excuse for QE1.
Trade agreements... Yeah... more opportunities for those who don't have a business with employees to outsource. That'll be the ticket to prosperity.
All Congress's fault, not his. He had control of this congress for 2 yaers. This man is a clown. Go away!!
Partied his ass off for 2 and a half years now ready to work?? Sure
I think he meant work on the driving range.
Runaway, runaway!
And like that he was gone....
Annnnddd...he's gone.
Loser is all I can say. Pathetic speech. My dog could do better than that.
I want to punch him in the face.
I feel so much better now. What's the Jimmy Buffet song -- it's five o'clock somewhere?
Bama gave us a nothingburger
Would you like fries with that? I'm practicing for the only jobs that will be left in a few years.
are you 365black? Because if you ain't, then those jobs ain't for you, son.
"it's the patent process that has messed all this up"
If Congress would just work harder as my daughter does, we could create jobs. Now, I've got to get to my vacation in Montana and work on my golf game.
HOLD IT! Did he just say he was willing to work through the weekend? OMG, that's incredible. What more could we ask?
Off to a fundraiser no doubt
Well, since he doesn't work during the week, working one weekend is an improvement.
wow...i think he packed more bullshit in that speech than he did in the entire state of the union address...
Wow, 10 minutes of silence. Not a single piece of sensible information.
Really?!? Well, that's one way to avoid reality. If I understood him correctly, the debt ceiling raise will be agreed upon this weekend and passed asap so the party can continue.
Wow what a prick. Thats what the figurehead has to do every once in a while?
Stand there , trot out 2 minutes of nonsense after keeping everyone waiting half an hour , then walk off as quick as one can.
That ladies and gents , is what your president really thinks of you. He couldnt give 2 shits. Such contempt.
i think he only gives one shit
Amen.
Hard to believe that this is what stands as leadership for this country. F*ck him and the horse he rode in on.
Like he said to those who cared to listen, I am the only thing between you and the mob.
The you(goes without saying) were the banksters/stockfrauding trader criminal class.
By the way the next "selection" just as the previous and previous and previous were all
of the same opinion.
How long fools how long do you sit for it?
Not even a shoe, not even a shoe?
I had to abandon capitalism to save it!!!!! really?
he got the GREY HAIR and the failure look,
of Jimmy Carter....
let me hear ya say, its a Malaise.....
let me hear ya say its the JETOWNERS
collapse the economyu with marxism
spending hyperinflation, printing, and
regulations....
UM UM UMMMMMMM. its worked
watch what happens wuhen 70 mio layoffs
from small business occurs on Obamacare.
UM UM UMMMM.
yup; dem chickens, liberal sauce cumin home to roost.
dude, lay off..our ears are still ringing from all his LEFT wing shit...
More of the same?! He just made the situation worse with this speech.
What not questions?
Did he just do a runner?
Reporter "How was the meeting with Mrs Pelosi?"
Obama "Huh"
i urge congress to raise the debt ceiling to get deeper into debt, increase inflation, and to piss off the chinese!
I think he said "right now" more than any other word combo as a subliminal message that Mr O is all over this mess. Bull Crap!
Yeah, I picked up on that, too. "Right now" was the not so subliminal message. "We're here, rolling up our sleeves, gonna take care of this mess starting right now."
yeah and "right now" I'm buying more PM's and working equities from the short side, "right now"!
Weren't his sleeves already rolled up? And if not, why the he'll not? He just figured out how bad it is???
Watching him speak makes me want to throw a shoe at the screen. Does he even believe the shit he says?
Someone should put the poor teleprompter on suicide watch.
Short and sweet. He has no clue what to do. Put drywall contractors back to work building rail lines. Give everybody a thousand bucks. Raise the debt ceiling.
Sheer genius I tell ya', sheer genius.
So, he's gonna keep ya'll informed of the progress he's making.
That'l take less time than he'll take to roll his fucking sleeves up.
no questions...right now
Is it over already? I went to a quick 5 minute meeting and the video link won't play. He must have had some really profound statements.
Yeah it was very inspirational.
What did he say again?
You missed nothing. it was SOS "Same Old Shit".
Raise the debt ceiling now and pass my legislation without question.
I take it from the comments on the board that he couldn't even hang out for another 5-10 minutes and take questions.
Geezus
after AT LEAST 30 years of FAIL why in hell does ANYONE think there
would be ANYTHING worth hearing out of the trash and filth that is DC?
Let them go, ignore them , do not support them in anyway.
Because stupids like you spend time in bunkers plotting instead help organize campaign to defeat DC filth.
You want change? end Fed, legalize pot, stop reward failed business, take money away military and give to deserve poor, then work with Ron Paul or find other you like. If enough people stop diversion into meaningless activity can get good one elected, and represent us.
Sounds like you might be already walking the legalize pot line with those pipe dreams.
Most here would love to have a system like that (well most of your points).
But that system cannot and will not be found within our rotting corpse of our government.
See, once they GET power, they KEEP power.
That is how oligarchies work. And once enough power is accrued, voting becomes meaningless.
pods
Debt limit deal will boost the economy? Right...because it has worked wonders so far.
Great metaphor for the decline of the American dream :
5 minutes of Obama dribble followed by the last ever American space shuttle launch.
The Sun has set. Gonna be a looooong dark cold night.
clang your bullion together so you can cook your beans from the sparks and read your bible
Non ferrous metals do not spark.
Lithium, beryllium, sodium, magnesium, aluminium, potassium, calcium, scandium, titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, gallium, rubidium, strontium, yttrium, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, technetium, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, silver, cadmium, indium, tin, antimony, cesium, barium, lanthanum, hafnium, tantalum, tungsten, rhenium, osmium, iridium, platinum, gold, mercury, thallium, lead, and bismuth.
sure they do. Anything that will combine with oxygen can spark. Watch a jet crashing on the runway and you will see a lotta sparks and then a lot of oxidation.
Drop some sodium or potassium into water and watch the sparks!
the space shuttle was a boondoggle and a gross waste of resources.
Just as the obamao election spending.
Priceless come to think of it.
shuttle was just another mil make work project.
'Today's NF jobs report wasnt as good as expected? You stay classy America?
'Alright, who put the question mark on the teleprompter. You all know Ron Burgandy/Obama will read anything that thing says...'

Shit, listening to Bloomberg radio here in the UK.
Sounds like FREE Justin Bieber ruck sacks when you buy some other shit, is going to turn the economy around - I kid you not. Fuckin losers, and I don't mean Justin Bieber - seriously.
He is devoid of any understanding how small- mid businesses work. A guy who has made a living off being a mushroom - sucking out all nutrients out while providing no value - cannot understand or read about how to be a succesful busines. Its like asking someone to describe the taste of a vagina who has never tasted one. Btw, they taste like pennies. We have 10 people in our comp, our insurance cost goes up $35K in 2012. I am for insurance coverage for the needy and sick, but Obamacare is one of the biggest constraints to job growth. He needs to allow the darwinian business flush to occur with the large corporations, break up Walmart, GE, Exxon, etc, remove tax breaks for outsourcing and re-institute Glass Steagall. It would be a painful but short eperience, but then we would have significant organic growth.
Btw, they taste like pennies.,
I disagree I think they taste like Nova Scotia Lox
Maybe you should start charging for the blow jobs to help pay for your health care.
racist
just goes to show ya: you never know where that penny's been...
are you kidding.
he would be dead in 5 days if he or any other kleptocrat even uttered
such "thoughts".
Break up Walmart , Exon GE GE GE????
bwhaaaaaaaa. Maybe you and uncle hugo should come out for a group hug.
Funny... excellent use of sarcasm, karzal...
He da best mon!
Give him a break. He's busy trying to find another Jew crazy enough to take Timmy's job;)
That was our Chickenhawk in Chief (CIC) running way from questions. I wonder what the military thinks?
mil doesn't have thoughts only history and rules.
they always fight the last war.
end of story.
President OBummer: This is all part of my plan to let things equalize and create an atmosphere of doubt to ensure that there's as many pissed off citizens as possible.... so the real culprit, Former Prez. Bushmeister, will take the heat. (Excuse me, Mr. Prez., you've been saying that for over two years and no one's buying it anymore.)
President OBummer: Oh! O.K. The challenges of this nation will bring us closer together and I will make sure there's a chicken in every pot and a smile in your heart. The employment numbers don't mean diddily squat. Once I get these here boys to raise the debt ceiling, the party will continue with more welfare and bailouts than you can shake a stick at....yup, good times ahead. (But, Mr. Prez., you're sinking us further into a debt black hole.)
President OBummer: TSA...arrest this man.....send him to my new Work House Initiative Program...otherwise known as W.H.I.P.....at our new FEMA Facility....good luck...make sure to vote for me in 2012. Oh wait, don't worry, my staff will make sure your vote is placed for you....
Nothing to see here folks....just move along.......The Prez has nothing to say and will only do what's in his own best interest....serving his banker overlords.
His best line would definitely be from Saddam in South Park :
"Hey guy, relax"
"Hey Benny; Print, or Die."
That's about 5.5 jobs created in each county of the USA... talk about dismal...
Even the best of the spin doctor speech writers have run out of ideas.
Did I miss anything?
"Look at me, I can keep the whole country waiting for me to read my teleprompter. I must be a big shit?"
Most human problems can be solved with an appropriate charge of high explosives.
Think he'll fire his financial advisers & try something else? Or more of the same, but bigger?
Those after the presidency book deals and political luncheons really got me thinking. What is he going to do, throw bread to his audience and stage historical sea battles to distract his malnourished moron followers? No one is left. Dress up like George Washington? Run a bandage around his head and do drum rolls? America's nerves were shot in 09-10, the race car is in the red in 2011, the engine will seize up in 2012-13, and then the fun begins.
All empires end. I don't feel sorry for myself, I can accept it, I have no choice, but it would be a pleasant thought to not be considered a write off for the next 20 years, just for the kids and my grandparents who worked themselves to death..(I remember a piece a few weeks back about the militarization and the fact they will use it indiscrimately. I have to agree, the most weaponized country in the world has to test the butcher machines somehow.)
The best to do is hunt for a low key spot, as the smart jews found out. Stay and turn into a thx 1138 robot, nope, not me.
"Buy more,.... buy more now!" Thank you jesus photo in a light box, so sick.
What do people expect of the US Federal Corporation? Every US president since UB Grant has been a CEO of this corporation, responsible to its shareholders, the international banks.
The CEO does not have to listen to or heed the employees (US citizen/subjects)) of the US Corp.
US citizen employees need to shut up lest you be fired (upon).
Or quit the US Corp. and become a free people.

Michael Bachmann for POTUS
There is no faster way to the bottom. My vote goes to M. Bachmann.
I'll see you at the guillotine.
I got two works for his "jobs" speech: Gold $1,543.00
Jobs "creation" is the new Quantative Easing.
I didn't watch the speech, but I read the transcript.
I am confused......
"Also to put our economy on a stronger and sounder footing for the future, we’ve got to rein in our deficits and get the government to live within its means, while still making the investments that help put people to work right now and make us more competitive in the future. As I mentioned, we’ve had some good meetings. We had a good meeting here yesterday with leaders of both parties in Congress. And while real differences remain, we agreed to work through the weekend and meet back here on Sunday."
What does that mean? What's a "good meeting" if nothing is resolved?
political theater. bread and circuses.
I guess I should know better by now........
the media is slave to the process. the same jobs number a year ago would have been greated with optimism (without much analysis) and the same number today gets blasted.so the media has sort of fallen out of love with Obama? Hell they fell out of love with George Bush on day 2. And Wall Street starting selling the market on day ONE of the Bush administration. That said here's some advice for Obama, from the previous occupant of the White House.
They don't have to love you in order for you to govern.
When the crowd turns ugly, stay away from the teleprompter. Bush disappeared for weeks at a time.
Be a decider. Show up once a week and call the GOP a bunch of weasels for holding up the vote on the debt ceiling. Then go back to your ranch.
Never get in a public debate with someone beneath you. Never argue publically with the House of Representatives. That what your vice-president is for.
Keep saying the economy is doing well. Bush must have said it a hundred times his second term. And when you lie, be sure and put a little spit on the end of it, directed at the opposing party. Call em the Repub party or something, to disparage them.
Get somebody who knows how those voting machines work.
Convince the voters there is no changing directions, and that their only choice is to find someone who can do this job better than you can, not differently, better.
Mr Prez you have most of the Bush package, GITMO, the shadowy security state, empty prisons waiting for protestors, active military units on duty in the US. You just don't have the spirit of the thing. Just stand up there and say, I know yall hate me, cause I'm doing a tough job..
and if you think I'm not doing very well wait until you see the next guy
Obama can only give one message:
"Our wonderful programs are just beginning to take effect. We will see glory come our way. Stay the course."
Oh God.
his wh attorney is now advising him to drink heavely
This farce reminds me of the time Greenspan asked a minion how the market closed on Black Monday 1987"down five "O" 4 points","oh,not too bad then --5 points","no sir that was five hundred and four points".
How long before Barry O'Barma has another flash crash on his watch?
You can't blame the man for what Clinton and Bush did.
He inherited a broke jobless country.
If he really wanted to reverse things he'd
ban immigrant labor, ban 'outsourcing' ,
ban cheap imports. Oh wait, that was
the job Congress was strictly charged with
performing under the constitution.
Golly Gee Whilikers, I wonder why Congress
did the exact opposite.
I am completely underwhelmed. Looks like the hopium isn't strong enough anymore. Any ideas on what to trade up to? More-feign? Kracken?
Maybe I should just take some ShaZamax! and sleep through the next 2 years?

Michelle "I'll Kick Your Ass, Barry!" Robinson-Soetoro just threw the teleprompter across thre room at our hero "Bullshit" Berry, at high velocity smashing it against a James Monroe era hutch...
CREEP aides (Committee to RE-Elect the President) are scrambling to find a replacement 'prompter... as we know what Obama Bin Lyin' looks like naked... without his vaunted 'prompter....
Not to Worry
As the teleprompter will shortly inform Barry... Revise unemployment upward the last couple of months, roll 100k or so long term unemployed into marginally attached, shrink that labor force participation rate AGAIN (SOP)... and unemployment will be back to 8.9%...
Watch the YouTube video 'RIOTS ARE COMING TO AMERICA !!!'

...come on, this is Rosemary's Baby and you know it. This President is the White Black Muslim Christian that nobody can deny, that nobody can deny, and the host of Lucifer. Watch, this moron will be the one to sign the prophetic false peace, even the occult masonic morons are calling for it to be timed with their stupid pyramid 2012 timing bullshit.

Three years of Obama has given us:
- $14 trillion deficit
- ruined economy?
- gas/food/clothing prices skyrocketing
- 5 wars, one with a record death toll
- foreign policy disasters?
- raiding the public pension fund to avoid the debt ceiling?
- lost 800+ seats for his own party
- poll numbers in the toilet
- 44 million Americans on food stamps?
- 1 in 4 mortgages under water
- ATF gunrunning scandal unfolding
ANYBODY BUT OBAMA!
More free trade. Well, hallelujah! We can all go look for the jobs in China.
People who annoy you...
Obama is going to be a one term president if not impeached if he keeps this up.
