Watch The Teleprompter's Update On The "Status Of Efforts To Find A Balanced Approach To Deficit Reduction"
This is getting bad. The market, like the good Pavlov dog it is, will start associating the president's now daily appearance with market plunges. Oh well. Some comedy relief nonetheless for those (the majority) that is not watching the Tiger address at the same time.

So in summary, we are going to give the middle class another tax holiday, raise the debt limit, and not eliminating the Bush tax cuts will help America deal with its debt problem....
It's on record now: "I have bent over, backward".
Spending isn't the problem, debit limits are.
he couldnt even think of things HE SHOULD/WOULD RATHER BE DOING !......couldnt say golf, so he says the NFL !!!!!!!!!!!
is it me or this guy getting more and more crazy with his words, when he is not in front of the prompter
He just didn't have the guts to say what he really thought........"I'd rather be golfing."
Is it raining in DC today??
Cocaine's a helluva drug.
Hey... "We are paid to know how treasy auctions work".... What a f... joke!
i would rather be talking about something else, like when is the next pickup game at the white house begins, and shit like that........but noooooooooo, i have to talk about the budget......
Erased... Duplicate
How much longer is he going to speak ?
I would imagine that the takedown of silver will abate only once he has finished speaking.
I use the word speak advisedly of course.
Did he just basically say that the American people (more than half of who oppose a debt ceiling raise) are too stupid to understand the politics, and it should be left to the professional politicians?
Yes he did and, no he does not sound that smart now.
He sure did.
Did he just compare this to resolving the NFL season?
I have a "stake" to drive through Boehner's....
Then I'll have a "steak" with....
Narcissism is so challenging, Michelle.
I can't take any more.
"If you're a progressive who cares..."
Let's have a little sympathy for the man married to the skanky bitch.
In my experience, men married to a skanky bitch usually are getting exactly what they deserve.
Dr. Zaius, this is for you.

"President Obam-uhh, why did you vote against raising the debt ceiling when you were a Senator?"
if we don't raise the debt ceiling, we will run out of money. we must raise the debt limit, in order to continue mailing out those social security checks to our seniors.....
Did he really just tell Americans not pay attention to treasury auctions? LMFAO.
Jesus H fucking Christ this guy needs to just shut the fuck up already.
Dumb fucking twat.
I want to see the word cloud on this fog of BullS**t.
Slow motion train wreck, hard to take your eyes off of it....
we must trim benefits and increase revenues. there you have it.
Hey Obama, youre a JACKASS Marxist communist TOOL!
'Got to find a responsible solution'....OH hate to cut into your 3 year all expennse paid PARTY around the world!!
The longer he talks the more gold I'm buying.
Obama is right you know. His is the more reasoned, fair and balanced approach. The Republicans just want to preserve their tax cuts and loopholes for their rich constituency.
Psquared
1) If one believes selling out to a financial oligarchy, bankrolling an endless war machine, and funding the establishment of a police state is "the more reasoned, fair and balanced approach",
then Obama would seem just "right" (but also would most Republicans).
2) Your statement about (most) Republicans wanting " to preserve their tax cuts and loopholes for their rich constituency" seems pointless, since Obama (and his Bernanke/Geithner team) want the same.
what stop now? they haven't really gone on a privatizing stealing spree yet... we got miles to kick this can down the road... since the parks have been shuttered from broke state budgets, i can see yellowstone and others go on the auction block first.. then the real fireworks start happening
Are you high?
Holy Bejesus is he taking ACTUAL questions?
Pre-selected questioners and likely questions too.
will the next president just be animated?? video games are looking more and more real - would love to see something like Hardball just done in animation
I'm waiting for Obama-rama-lama-ding-dong to tell us where we can go to get payday loans to meet our debt obligations. Got's to pay them bills baby, got's to pay dem beels babay!
Teleprompter talking about "the values that all Americans care about..." So let's see, abortion, gay and transgender rights, socialist welfare state, every leftist wing nut cause you can find...
Wonder why we are witnessing the uncorporation of the United States of America?
You WILL care about 'the things americans care about', abortion, transgender freak rights, endless welfare state, socialism taken to its insane extreme, 3rd worlding of america while banksters are handed free trillions' or be dissappeared!! Got it?
It is unbelievable. I'm astounded of what I've witnessed happening in the last 40 years. What has happened to our way of life?
The options are pretty straight forward:
(1) default, and have social unrest
(2) fix structural problems and have social unrest
I'm not an extremist, but I'm seeing a theme here. It is impossible to imaging that the economy is going to create the jobs required to get the tax base up and ride through this storm.
The bond vigilantes are now focusing on Italy... wait until they focus the America where 60% of all governmnet debt rolls over every 3 years. Once interest rates start to increase... watch out.
(3) kick the can
(4) kick the can farther
(5) buy a new pair of boots (on credit)
(6) resume can kicking activities
Right, we definitely have no easy way out from here. Every 'solution' has bigtime social unrest attached to it, they knew that, but now have cold feet? Hey the rest of the world is in shooting riots, anyone thinks its not coming here next needs a reality check!
when they roll out the "cash 4 guns" program (modeled after 'cash for clunkers')... I'd start to worry...
Sheepdog, you know there is no exit, it will continue until it can't. One morning we will wake up and it will be over. Maybe like the 15 day meltdown.
remember, there is never enough money to pay back debt issued money.. you have to transfer wealth into $$$ and hand that shit over.. then they can make even MORE loans from their newly grabbed assets
Sure, you can try to get wealth from other nations, if possible, to pay it back but unless you legalize weed and prostitution in this country what the hell are you going to offer the world to generate that much taxable U.S. revenue? Perhaps you figure out how to lock down movies, music and games so they can't be pirated but even still they ain't gonna make a dent at this point
OK, take note everybody (you too Tyler(s)!): the Teleprompter is the device that projects the speech onto little screens ... the idiot that can't sustain the image that he knows what the hell he's talking about without the aid of said instrumentality is the Telepromptee. So much for pedantic trivia ... I can't help it, honest!
I now return you to your regularly scheduled atrocity.
I, driven to drinking as my fellow ZeroHed above and therefore posting hammarred at 12 pacific, do hereby bequeath myself Teleprompted (virtually of course thanks to you all).
Fuck sandwich, Bolweevil! You are absolutely shit-faced!
To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them?
I was long so Obama just bailed me out!
Can someone Explain to me why increasing the debt sealing would make any change? They want to have more debt? Or they just want to make people believe they did something huge like before? If they increase the debt ceiling, won't the USA be in the same position as Greece in 1 or 2 years? In fact, they only want to gain some time. That's the basis of your economcal model: "My kids are gonna find a way to pay my debt". Countries with no debt are in Africa...
I like what Timmah said a few weeks ago. We shouldn't even have a debt ceiling, we should just let them handle it, they know when to contract or expand the money supply. WTF!!!! Obamarx just said the people don't understand how the treasury works. I think the point is we are ready to see TPTB eat their peas. I can't believe they can look us straight in the eye and tell us we now are responsible for their decisions regarding the TBTF and the bailouts.
Your Divisive President Speaks Against America.
its not because I have some grand plan for bigger gov't
but he didn't say he didn't
WTF this guy is delusional if he actually believes ONE word coming out of his mouth!
'Its all fixed now'? What?
He just said he was going to:
"Target those folks..."
I thought the Dem's were going to use less violent rhetoric after that Arizona Congresswoman got shot...
You can now do that from home in your bathrobe you know.
Hey, big rabbit guy--the ebonics ain't gettin' any funnier. You just sound like an illiterate redneck.
They want to raise the debt ceiling so they have the authority to borrow more money...like any sane person still wants to lend it to them...
Would he even be willing to cut the funding for military bands (as in musical bands) down to at least $50 million next year? It was $325-350 million, but cut to $200 for this year. Do we need $200 million/year for military bands? Could we get the Rolling Stones for less?
Oh wait...jobs.
That's nothing.
The military is spending $20,000,000,000.00 per year on air conditioning in Iraq and Afghanistan.

And here comes the great "public works" project shit. That failed miserably last time you dipshit, why would we do it again?
OH so Obama says NOW we're about to get serious and coming up with some plans for crushing unemployment and total bankruptcy! This is INSANE!!
He's rambling....
Exactly what I was thinking.
He's slipped into a random "stream of consciousness" mode...
Quick ! Somebody put another quarter in the Teleprompter!
LOL
I'm not wasting my pre-1965 silver quarters on that piece of sh..........
Let him eat tin......quarters.
Very good, takinthehighway.....+.25
Obama: "Foreigners say America has got it's act together"
Best bullshit line so far ;)
An act is all america has.
Compared to who? Mexico?
Low expectations met.....Lectureman has yet to answer any basic question from anyone in less than 500 words...<yawn>
Blah, blah, blah .... same old shit.
is it just me, like evertime there's one of these press conferences it's almost impossible to hear the questions
Obama is not making any sense this morning. He must have his next 18 on his mind. When he said that Americans do not understand monetary and fiscal policy, and that this is what they pay politicians to do, he must not know his own limitations, which is very dangerous considering his lilitations concerning his economic policy are vast.
America, your President is an idiot.
and yet.........still the smartest guy in the room!
That's what 30 years of edumucation USA USA USA style gets ya.
I didn't (won't don't) listen to these abortions, but if he said the avg j6p doesn't
understand econ , who can challenge that.
Look at the debates(BWHAHAHAHHA) and who/what they vote for!
true dat homey.
TPIC: "The vast majority of Democrats on Capitol Hill would prefer not to do anything about the deficit."
Smith (Man with frozen carrots): Say that again?
TPIC: "The vast majority of Democrats on Capitol Hill would prefer not to do anything..."
Smith: Stop. That part of it you got right.

I need fucking drink and someone please throw this guy out of office.
LYING BASTARD. If our massive unfunded liabilities aren't the largest driver of our longterm debt then what is you blithering retard?
This clown is like listening to a3 year old. he has completely tap danced around the issues and become Divisive and partisan... What a punk child he is... obumma just put the nail in his coffin...
You are looking at the next president. BHO wins in 2012 hands down. What does the other side have to offer? Bible thumpers in leather, Clark Kents thumping the Book of Mormon . . . not saying it's right, just stating what is.
Now he's giving a lecture on patriotism...??
Dunno LeBreizho, but I just got done sealing the ceiling in by saferoom - and no, I'm not kidding. Next comes 3 inches of cement on the roof. I'm not really worried about the avalanche of debt, because I don't give a sh*t if it gets paid or not; I've got 250 lbs. of rice and beans; I bought 3 cans of 'OFF' brand Morlock repellent; I'll be sealing myself in soon, and putting on my necklace made of ASEs. See you all on the other side
This person they call 'Obama' is a %$&#ing retard!
"This recession has been hard on everybody."
Not on that french frying fatass broad you (allegedly) share a bed with.
HEY at least Obama has aged an apparent 50 years over the last 3!
'This recession is harder on those who have less'....DERP!
Holy rat piss is this little cunt face still yapping his flapper?
'Economy not growing fast enough'....DERP!
Hey ASSCLOWN we're plunging straight down and the ONLY thing that has been keeping ANYTHING afloat is daily nonstop cash printing of billions!
MAN! Just SICK of this level of bullshit!!
In years past the bullshit was knee high...now its over our heads! TOO MUCH!
Back to blaming Bush again...
The old excuses are the best...
Which isn't fair to Georgie at all. It's not his fault he's a moronic, delusional psychopath. It's just the way he was brought up.
"The repubs need to make sensible compromises to solve big problems ..."
Like the compromises democraps made in the health care bill, right?Elections hae consequences stupid.
Need Captain Kirk to upload a subroutine to win the Kobayashi Maru, wait, that was just a movie.
This man is not qualified to lead our country.
The more I think about it, that's the point. He might as well be wearing a red shirt (multiple meanings of course). History will be written with Obama as the fall guy for the coming collapse even though he was just another puppet. He's a patsy.
This man is not qualified to lead.
Fixed it.
It's the Teleprompter Tyrant! All bow in abeyance!
I heard the very end – 'thank you very much everybody'
Yea, I think I got the gist of it.
At least the photographers got some nice pix...
OMG. I wasted 40 minutes of my life on THAT??? I loved his response to the question on the public opinion polls which are against the debt ceiling raise. So condescending. So wrong.
WTF? "Necessary to Win the Future"???? Wow what a hack!
Progressives Bitchez...
Who will the DNC back for president in 2012?
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
The poor felow has his priorites backward
so basically what you're trying to say is that this poor fellow has his priorities backwards
Please kill yourself now.
So in other words... nothing has been accomplished. He didn't give any new approach or set any new agenda. Why was this press conference necessary? Take some pictures?
what a freakin monkey!
The poor fellow has his priorities backward
Anybody here read Michael Durbin's 'All About High Frequency Trading' published last year by McGraw Hill who claims to have worked for Citadel HFT in 2000? Michael Durbin's writing style reminds me eerily of some contributor this site, but no possible way dude...
is it over...I can't bring myself to watch....
Cognitive Dissonance "I was a bookie during my tender youth" You make me laugh!! You made a $10 bet on a Cowboys game?, when you "explained "I know about spreads" you gave yourself up-Does anybody here call BS with you?
You are such a phoney.
$10 = $1,000 (in bookie parlance)... Cd is innocent until proven guilty...
Trolltip: Next time, how about maybe replying to the post you're trying to ridicule?
You are right little boy my fault go back to rooting for "cats and dog living together", you will probably will be one the first flattened.
Anybody else watching Rangel on FBN now paying his debt to TPTB for keeping his ass out of jail? He's the best liar I ever saw, & his people don't care/are too stupid to not vote for him just bc he's black.
I think it's because he does such a good Cab Callaway.
"Hey folks here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher..."
ha
can we get a CHAT ROOM in here PLS I'm tired of talking to self I'm out bye
end the wars and nazionism occupations in the middle east. No more deficit.
ope, nope! what am I thinking. Must expand the murder and slaughter
For the right wing and the left wing of nazionism.
Long live the 4th Reich or murderous JWO.
so I guess the answer to too much debt is more debt..seems right to me. but then I never eat the pee. er peas .
obuma to the fat ass skank: honey our master charge bill is due, no problem chump, we got visa!!
Obamazuela used the "Banana Republic" meme against the Republicans last night. But I think it is very unwise of him to go there since he brought it on.
An unstoppable force meeting an immoveable object.
Who will blink first?
Obama has much more to lose if he backs down now. If he gives in, his credibility (what's left of it) is down the crapper completely.
I think this could go very badly. For the first time, I sorta think they could sell out the economy and the country for politics.
Cue the revolution.
Disobey.
I am afraid they are eying on either public savings or social security benefits or retirement accounts. After confiscating, they will raise debt ceiling.
