I can only imagine what the media would have be saying if this was Bush out on "date night".

BTW when can this man get any work done? He is always on TV giving a speech. He gives at least 2 a day. I never remember a president who loved to be in the spotlight more than this idiot.
Good Lord, why would you begrudge him a little time with his wife? Bush was well known to be in bed by 9:30 PM, never missed his daily workouts, took more vacation time than just about any other president, and you begrudge Obama a night out with his wife?

Giving speeches IS part of his job, honey.

I'm glad to hear ACORN and all their pet projects are going to get billions while we the Americans are losing jobs and our homes.

He probably watches himself on loop all night long. Admiring his head tilt this way and his hand gesture that way and how he can make it better!

For pete's sake! Bush took 8 years to wreck this country , could ya give Obama some time to straighten it all out???? Quit kicking your feet and whining!
What I find interesting is the UN-acknowledgment of the left as far as BILL CLINTONS hand in this mess of today! And all the other Dems in Congress! Voting down bills for regulation.

Bill Clinton let Osama go and 9/11 happened but nobody on the left wants to acknowledge it....

Will you stop repeating that lie over and over. The war was not based on "lies" so making that silly claim.

The left knows it, but will never admit it.

I know, after the last 8 years, that this is hard to accept, but, talking to the American people is part of the job of being president. Think of them as 'stakeholder' reports.

I am not a fan of Obama (to put it mildly), but it's too soon to say that his Presidency is already falling apart at the seems. That said, IMO, this stimulus package is a HUGE waste of money. If it is passed and Obama signs it into law (which may happen within the next 5-10 days), then that's certainly a major strike against him (again, IMO). That wouldn't mean he is a complete failure, but it would be a major strike against him.
