Perhaps you missed the 20+ debates he participated in, or the dozens of TV interviews he's done.

If you don't like him, don't watch him.

You're right, he's the best tele-prompter president ever

If you actually addressed some of the points he discussed and provided evidence of how unintelligent he was in what he said, then maybe people would have something to debate and potentially defend. Seeing as all you said was "press conference - he was just so horrible", there isn't much to say. It's not even clear that you have a good grasp of what he said or of the issues at stake.

Agreed.

He's already surpassed Carter, recognized universally as the worst modern president. Just imagine what two more years will bring. Its funny how often those with the biggest egos are often lacking in the talent and gifts to support such an ego. Barry Sotero, aka Barack Hussein Obama is such an individual.

Clueless, regressive Pubs see red when this great president takes the podium and unfortunately can't get by their own severe limitations. Not Obama's problem. He's lifting this country out of the Dubya Dark Ages...and don't you forget it.
Bush never claimed to be the smartest person in the world
I know it is difficult for you enlightened people to grasp, but the president does not have to be like Obama... Bush was just being himself. What you see is what you get. Obama has no sense of himself outside of politics, so he is FAKE

I did not see the press conference in its entirety. Just saw clips. I heard he stammered through the whole thing. I also saw a photo later. As a person who equates public speaking with dying, and answering questions with no prep as double dying, I can't offer my opinion on how he speaks as I feel his pain there. If I had teleprompters, I know I would use them but I can offer one piece of advice - Stop holding press conferences in the official White House bathroom. That gold shower curtain as a backdrop has to go!

The Republicans did it! The Republicans did it! That's how the news people have been summing up his looooooong press conference. If that's true, does he remember the Democrats control the White House, the Senate and the House and the Republicans are not capable of obstructing because of that? Who is he trying to kid? If things aren't going swell for him, maybe he should turn on the fan, pick up the bath towel and wipe the steam off the mirror to see whose fault it is.

No kidding. He sounded like he was reading the eye chart at a doctor's office.
