Were they supposed to play the entire event? If was not edited.

Play these two at the same time, not one word, or phrase was edited out, one video just drones on and on for over seven minutes

0bama was the first president to get reelected with fewer votes, and Clinton, the democratic party's president before 0bama was the first to get reelected, and never get 50% of the vote either time. And yet these two boobs are the modern day heroes of the left.

A bit late for it now ...... last year at about this time it would have been a great idea.

Now I just hope we can keep enough "obstructionists" in Congress to render him useless.

Misery loves company RIGHT! GUESS some people don't mind being lied to constatnly, don't care about personal responsibility, or the media who kisses Obama's ass on a daily basis, and you know it.

The excuses are such a friggin joke, save it, most of us not with a naive warped mind, know the score, sorry if some of you don't. Hey no sweat off our back, the sweat is off all of our backs.

And for the friggin life of me, hy nevers knows how something happened you know this! He should have been a golfer, or a actor, oh waithe already is!

With a decade of double-digit unemployment and unending economic misery, FDR still had to die in office to lose the presidency.

Desperate people do desperate things.

This is why the more the economy suffers under the Democrat's failed and even counterproductive economic policies, the more popular Democrats become with voters who are desperate for food stamps and welfare checks.

Democrats of today remember FDR's unprecedented political success and understand that it was the direct result of failed New Deal policies.

lol, agree. That is why instead of working for American Obama dedicated the first two years of his second term in demonizing the republications. he wants his way and who gives a damn about anyone else. I have as we get to learn more about what's in Obamacare the dems are sol.

Cutting him offi, isnt editing.

And even if they played the whole thing, it wouldnt have changed the the relevance of what he said.

Dont you ever get tired of running around defending crap? Hell, he's clearly not going home, dont panic, relax, you're welfare check will be there in a few days..

Sadly for them our great President is not leaving, and a majority of Americans want it this way.

Come on folks, he is the President, not Sarah Palin.



Hmmm...which of those things you listed are better under Obama?
