Oh My God.

I watched that entire answer - he seems to be addressing ONE questioner and he gives a HUGELY detailed and forthright reply on a variety of complex subjects. Why dont you wait for the transcript of that new conference and look at the topics he addresses within that one answer, and the choices he made in framing his reply. All off the cuff. He did a fantastic job and gave far more than he needed to give.

I think it's quite telling that you dont listen to the content of the reply or look at the structure of the reply. I didnt hear "uh, uh, uh"s - he's done that before far worse than he did here.

hmm I must have watched two different videos because while I heard a few "uhs", he was pretty concise.

I think she means the second one - the one in which he's speaking extemporaneously. That said, I dont hear too many "uhs" either. Uh, no more than anyone says.

The OP is obviously reaching and, in lieu of Obama's successful trip, appears even more desperate than usual.

I think the independent participant once again needs to listen and decide for themselves and not look at the headlines and assume. You know what that does.

In Jordan, Obama set to get a close look at Mideast peace process - International Herald Tribune

"The way it looks from our side is that this guy has a very good chance - at least a 50-50 chance - of getting to become the president of the United States," a senior Jordanian official said. "In the last eight years the Middle East has changed dramatically under Mr. Bush. There are many things to attend to."

The official added, "There are so many things at stake. This is why we don't want this window of opportunity to be missed."

But there are people on here who get as far as the headline and take it as gospel.
