Obama Wants More TV Time!

Interrupting the country's favorite TV shows is not the greatest way to go about boosting your approval rating, Barack!
The Prez will be holding yet another primetime presidential news conference on Wednesday at 9 PM, as announced on the White House Twitter, but the major networks are having their doubts about airing the conference.
Wednesday night is the biggest night for the networks' summertime schedules, with new episodes of reality programming on all the big name networks, except for CBS!
CBS has signed on to broadcast the conference, with Fox, NBC and ABC still taking their sweet time in making up their minds.
Both Fox and NBC would be interrupting their summer mega-hits So You Think You Can Dance? and America's Got Talent if they were to air Obama's event!
Wednesday night's broadcast will be President Obama's fourth (!) news event since taking office in January. Seems a little excessive, dontcha think???

WHY THE HATE FOR OUR PRESIDENT?

YOU KNOW YOU HAVE THE FREEDOM TO MOVE!?
Re: kissmyassobama
DON'T DISRESPECT OUR PRESIDENT!

YOU KNOW YOU HAVE THE FREEDOM TO MOVE!?
Re: PLEZZZ –
Plezzz,
I agree. If you (kissmyassobama) don't agree, get the hell out. I know you used the same line on everyone during the Bush era (asshole).
I RESPECT ALL OF OUR PRESIDENTS!
*
YOU HATERS HAVE HE RIGHT TO MOVE!!!
ALL PRESIDENTS SHOULD HAVE BEEN OPEN
WITH US!
*
I LOVE THIS ABOUT HIM!!!!!!!
I never thought I would say this but…
"Perez, I agree with you". Obama is nothing but a fame whore. He is so busy trying to be on tv that he is forgetting his job. Stop appearing on tv, Mr. President, and fix our country…that's what all those crazy liberals voted for!
well if we wanted to we could blow up thier towers… so i say let him talk all fuckin night if he needs to
TEST
Unfortunately I DON'T BELIEVE A WORD HE SAYS!
He wants to tax the wealthy and "spread the wealth"…thats is absolutely WRONG!!!!!!!!! That is not how you fix the economy for gawds sake. If you penalize big business, it will only eventually affect the small business owners of this country. That gives our upcoming generation a real hope of ever being something successful!! Dont do well in school kids and get a good degree and get in a high tax bracket. Because the government is going to punish you for becoming something great anyway!. Yeah great to teach young people!! Keep eveyone low, thats how he likes America.
Fuck that bullshit and fuck Obama for that retarded way of thinking!
Re: imsoregistered –
Um the tax cuts Bush enacted were roughly 715 billion and an additional tax on the highest earners around 4% will bring in another 300+billion. This health care program should be around1.2 trillion. Had we not gone on the desert misadventure we would have had the 2 trillion in savings for many of the programs the Prez wants funded. I don't do the kool aid, I get myself informed from other than Fox News thank you very much. I won't do your research for you but you can go to the house or senate website and see for yourself the savings that would come just from reforming health care. That is partly the reason GM went under, the fact they had to tack on health care costs on top of pricing for vehicles. Like I said, if people want to be ignorant and uninformed go to it.
Re: stinkyminky –
THANK- YOU!
Re: PLEZZZ – You know how stupid comments like this are? So many of you people who whine MOVE - why didn't YOU when Bush was in office if HE was so bad hmmm? It never occurs to you small minded people, that watching our nation go to hell in a basket, that some of us LOVE our country and hate to see it in this state, while pushing debt onto the children and grandchildren of America, actually bothers us? It's sickening to see the hatred - MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY. You want dictatorship, move somewhere else. IT'S CALLED DEMOCRACY - get over it. If you don't like people with opposing opinions - YOU MOVE!
Re: PLEZZZ – True Americans arent going anywhere asshole. Obamas koolaid drinkers can get to Kenya..NOW!!
Re: PLEZZZ – ok ..start name the things he has accomplished that have helped America since he was sworn in… and be specific on them…I,m waiting…..
Re: PLEZZZ – You dont know a damn thing about government do you?? Making stupid statements with nothing real to say about what he is doing…shut up and go watch cartoons.
Re: PLEZZZ –
WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
Re: PLEZZZ –
Correction: that message was directed at kiss
i dont see the change but i know it's coming( right about when?) Obama should be on tv but the subject have changed during the election it was about change know its bout other fckn countries and People who name I can't fckn pronounce (Jyhe uin vgak)…example. So maybe he has gotten a little sidetracked of course there are personal things he wanted to changed for himself…im lost maybe I voted wrong maybe I didn't Obama is whats happening
Re: kissmyassobama –
Hello asshole,
He has only been in office for 7 months, and he has been dealt the task of cleaning up what the mess your beloved Republican Bush created. You talk about taxing the rich instead of the poor- do you realize our national deficit? And do you realize how that deficit came to be that astronomical? It sure as hell wasn't Obama, who has been in office for 7 months. Think back to last year (if your memory lasts that far) and remember the trillions of dollars in money that big boy W. cost us finding WMD's. Anyone who takes office after something like that is bound to be faced with incredible difficulties. Wake up and smell your asshole- because you're really the one who stinks.
Re: imsoregistered –
Wonder how many times you asked liberals to MOVE during the Bush era? Hmmm? Care to remember? Or just so stupid you forgot?
Re: johnnydepprules – youre so stupid..I Just said you can have private health care but you fucking wont be able to afford it once the malpractice insurance goes sky high. Do you know how many people will have no choice than to get that shit obama is proposing? The numbers are from financial reports that any idiot like you has access to. Look it up. I guess you voted for that piece of shit…You just arent too bright.
Yes! This idiot is still on a campaign tour!!! or ROCK TOUR!!! He needs to maintain his groupies so he can keep screwing them (US) but good!!!!! A good ole' Television appearance will take care of that!!!!
Re: misterfister –
these would not be my first choice in words but, i have to say i totally agree with you!!
Re: johnnydepprules – Once again you have NO clue about anything. The debt was inherited from the CLINTON ADMIMINISTRATION if you do some homework.
Re: maraw2003 –
I agree wholeheartedly
Re: stinkyminky – Bush inherited the debt from Clinton. The dems remember??? Thank GOD Obama wasnt our president when we were attacked..he would have wanted to call them up and say oh thats ok, we,ll just clean up the mess..we're not mad!! Really. hahahahahahahaha….

Re: stinkyminky – Your messiah is all for a one world government…they dont want a democracy…go worship him and the idiots in his world…a.k.a pelosi, reed, franken, all those losers…what a bunch of idiots!! Yeah this was the worst president we could of EVER gotten…Shady ass fucker. Wont even show his birth certificate.. Not a a certification of birth. That states you were bornn..well DUHHHHHHHH…….loser.
I recommend the movie "The Great Debaters" - maybe it will give you some insight into social programs and the like. If I guess correctly, you are probably some southern (I'm also from the South) bigot who has no money or assets.
Re: kissmyassobama –
Also…. you're saying the debt didn't increase in incredible proportions after Bush took office and declared "war." How much good did that do? We caught a few terrorists, but tarnished our image as perceived by the world so much as to spawn more advanced terrorists!
Re: rachelinala – If you really want to know what is going on in your world you would not be wasting your time watching a teleprompter telecast with a wannabe prez tv fame whore reading a monitor!

Repubes are just jealous because their punch bowl is as dry as Ann Coulter's vag!
WTF? Who gives a shit about reality shows. Obama is our president and we need to be inform as much as possible. I rather listen to what he has to say. Are ppl use to the bumbling idiot for the last 8 years mumbling about weapons, war and other bullshit that ppl rather watch some hasbeens dance and some no talent assholes on TV. People in this country needs to wake the hell up.
fox won't do it & you're actually entertaining the thought of NBC not changing their entire schedule so that he interrupts nothing important so they can still put their boss on??? General Electric + NBC + Barack Obama & Czars = our new energy bill… Yay! Logic, kids… wake up & look at what's happening around you, stop listening to the words & open your eyes.
He is becoming a joke. Like Castro and Chavez this guy want to be part of your house everynight, it's like a propaganda enema…Now they are advertisers that said:Obama want you to go back to school…Obama want you to refinance your home…
What is this man and his insaciable need for promotion…? Who can possible respect this inmature community organizer..No experience, to much ego….
Re: kissmyassobama –
Oh darling I am bright enough to know that I will be one of the ones paying more taxes and happily I might add so that others will have the right to health care. I've seen both the house and senate versions of the reform. If you would get your own head out of your ass and not listen to Rush Limbaugh and his ilk you may get better informed. We're done, since you resort to juvenile personal attacks instead of trying to debate rationally. Much like most of the republicans do when presented with facts. Heads explode when facts and truth are given.
Re: kissmyassobama –
Oh please. Clinton left a huge surplus that Bush managed to squander in less than a year with his tax cuts to the wealthiest 1%. Why people keep thinking Bush did anything right is beyond me. The guy got us into a trillion dollar war there was no need to fight, but that is facts you probably don't want to know. Look back into where deficits were and where surpluses were and you will find through democratic governance the country was in a better position. During republican governance they gave to the richest and the poor were told screw you, you're on your own. Why people vote against their interests is truly something I can never fathom. Is it because people think they will be like republicans and somehow get rich? Who knows, history shows if you want to live like the rich vote democratic. If you want to get shafted every which way, vote republican.
PLEZZZZ - If you want national health care
let me quote you…..YOU KNOW YOU HAVE THE FREEDOM TO MOVE!?
the reason he is trying to get everyone's attention is because he is trying to sell everyone on healthcare. he knows the bill will be dead if people actually understand what is in it. everyone will be affected negatively by this bill and he doesn't want people to know the truth! right now it is about 1,000 pages and is so complicated that even the experts can't figure it out. that is obama's way of selling crap to those who are stupid enough to buy into it!
I am laughing at the ignorance here! anyone who says that obama is cleaning up Bush's mess knows nothing about how this was started and by whom! by the way, you morons don't understand economics or the housing crisis problems either! you are idiots! that is why we are in the mess we are in!
johnnydepprules — you will also be in line to get a doctor's appointment for months. i hope you don't have an urgent need because thanks to obama you will wait a very long time. i guess you don't care about the rationing of healthcare either. so it is ok with you if your grandparents and parents die because they are denied care? as long as everyone pays for their own private healthcare, they have a right to it, you moron! if obama did his job, we would have jobs now! a few simple changes would have created jobs immediately. however, obama's supporters are stupid and obama plays on that ignorance. that is why we have what we have now!
for those who think Clinton left a surplus–that is a lie. the social security fund was in the whole more than his "surplus" so that is a lie. in addition, in order to obtain a "surplus," Clinton decided to cut our national intelligence that took decades to build up! what does this mean? it means that when we were attacked on 9-11, we didn't have the intelligence we needed. so get your facts straight before commenting. your stupidity is showing!
my previous comment–i meant in the hole not whole!
The celebrity in chief will be on to tell us how we need yet another entitlement program when we can't even afford the other entitlement programs. Medicaid/Medicare going broke. Social Insecurity going broke. Didn't congress just pass SCHIP which is a public insurance program for children? These fools need to stop spending money that we don't have. Public option my ass;The goal is to eventually crowd out private insurance to the point where everyone will be forced into the government run scam. Page 16 of the legislation calls for outlawing private coverage for those who change jobs. It also mandates that private insurers NOT enroll new clients. Read the fine print fools.
This health care program should be around1.2 trillion.
Re: johnnydepprules –
When the hell does it ever cost what the fat pig government says it will? NEVER. It always costs more, is always less efficient, contains more red tape, takes longer, did I mention that it always costs more, etc. Here's some examples of government efficiency: Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, Veteran's Administration/Tri Care, Amtrak and the United States Postal Service. And you want the government more involved in your healthcare? What a maroon.
Re: stinkyminky –
Keep telling yourself that, fool. You can't blame Bush forever. Eventually your precious M-A-R-X-I-S-T will have to be held accountable. Hu Jintao of China has already made it clear they will no longer lend us money for deficit spending and that is the only reason Pinkobama has changed his tune and is now calling for a "deficit neutral" healthcare plan. Americans would be better served by investing in HSA's(Health Savings Accounts)and using said HSAs in conjunction with a Catastrophic Health insurance Plan. Of course the onus is placed on the individual to be responsible in funding said accounts and meeting the monthly premiums for the catastrophic health insurance plan. Imagine that, individual freedom and personal responsibility in the land of the free.
P.S. we are not a democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic. A punch in the face to anyone, democrat, republican, independent, who doesn't know this important little fact. You should have learned this in your public indoctrination center but clearly American history, economics and american government have gone the way of math and science in our union monopolized and politicized public education. No wonder India and China are kicking our asses. P.S. India just told us to go fuck ourselves, they aren't going to buy into the "global warming and reduction of carbon emissions" scam that our dumb ass pols are trying to force down our throats. That's why Asia will continue to be more competitive and why more jobs will ultimately be exported to asia from the West. Asia has less draconian taxation and less stringent environmental regs. Asians are willing to work harder, longer and for less money than westerners. WAKE UP AMERICA!
In an "Associated Press" analysis, David Espo wrote:
"Bush inherited a surplus when he took office, and now says his goal
is to reduce this year?s record anticipated deficit, $521 billion, by
half at the end of a second term. That doesn?t count additional
spending for post-war Iraq, though, as much as another $50 billion
come next January. In any event Bush blames a recession that started
before he took office and the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks for the
rise in red ink."
(SOURCE: David Espo, "Budget politics: Plenty for all sides to
campaign about"
.
That was written inn 2004. We all know how bad it has gotten since.
.
Not only did Bush kill thousands of our brave girls and boys, not to mention innocent civilians by the thousands, he may have killed our country.
.
Killing the press and real journalism is all part of the plan as well.
.
Keep us dumb and uninformed.
.
Fuck, again? It's like once a month. All his "conferences" consist of soft ball questions and/or spin for his agenda. He talks and talks and talks, and often has nothing new to say. He got elected by the media, celebrities and GWB. Hillary would have been a better choice, even Romney who would have been better.
i cant stand obama, enough said.
We were all duped. This guy is a joke. Counting the days until this clown is out of office.
Re: stinkyminky – Just shows how moronic you are. I have a masters degree in business administration and am far from obese. I do not watch Dancing with the Stars. Tomorrow night I will be volunteering at a no kill shelter. But thanks for proving my point that only the uneducated make assumptions.
"we" weren't duped! the people in my circles knew all along what this guy was about. those who didn't weren't paying attention and didn't understand basic economics. in addition, they didn't have plain ole common sense. of course, there are those who don't understand anything about our political system at all and blame Bush for this crisis! any one of these excuses is no excuse. every person who voted for obama is responsible for the mess he has gotten us into.
Re: stinkyminky – I have to laugh at your ignorance. No, I did not vote for Obama. I find him fake and nothing but a PR stunt. If you were educated you would see itt oo.
wtf perez shame on u. u rather watch "so if u think u can dance" and "America got talent" other than knowing if u gunna still keep ur job tomorrow? or pay higher taxes? then is best u keep president bush
Re: COCACOLA – Havn't seen you here in a while.
Re: jackiem – THANK YOU!!! You absolutely GET IT and understand what is going on!! Some of these people need to start listening to what is really going down in this administration and stop worshipping!!Don't get your Obama information on Perez Hilton. But hey, some people just dont care. They screwed up by putting this guy in office and they'll never see him for what he really is. SAD for all Americans really.
Re: johnnydepprules – #97 No YOU should NEVER be allowed to vote man, you dont know what America is in need of. It ISNT a man like Obama that's for sure. Small business owners wont be able to cover their employees health care, so that will force employees to have to go with gvmt forced healthcare. That is the wrongggggggggg path for America.
George W. Bush did the same thing. He was interrupting major television a lot, and no one liked it. I'm seeing Obama do a lot of things Bush did. Interfering with the media, just to get more "face-time", isn't one of the good things. How much exposure does he need, anyway? He's already President. It looks like he's still campaigning for office. Enough talk. Fix the economy. If any of my shows get cancelled because of "low viewer rates", I may not be voting for him next term. And, if he thinks he can distract me with smooth talk next time, he's mistaken. The time for empty promises has long passed. Fix the economy. Bring us out of this war. Improve our relations with the world.
He's getting on TV to try and convince people socialized medicine is a good thing. He's trying to pass through a bill that should take over a year to review, he's doing so because he knows if it is really reviewed then it for sure won't pass. The CBO has already warned it won't work, but he just keeps pushing something he's been warned is going to fail. It's not that he wants to get "close" to the American public by doing all this TV, it's that he wants to convince you that his agenda is the right agenda. He wants to change a program that doesn't work for like 10% of the population. Fix that issue for those people by doing other things like dealing with insurance regulations and tort reforms not putting the rest of us in a position to have socialized medicine, it doesn't work. Taxpayers end up paying even more and it won't just be the rich who are paying for this. Oh and don't forget about the "End of Life" part of the bill. You have a parent who needs a heart stint, they can be denied under this plan since they are near "the end of life" and you won't have any say over it. It's NOT free health care, somebody has to pay for it.
oh, boo hoo. So you miss a night of trash tv. We've got two wars going on, the economy is in the crapper and the unemployment rate is sky high. President Obama is trying to keep the American public up to speed on these events. I have no problem with this. I think he should have MORE public addresses.
Re: SeeThirty – Okay, and if he wasn't addressing the public as much you twat's would accuse him of doing nothing. The man can NEVER win.
Are You Nuts Perez??
Sometimes it is NOT about what we Want - but - What we Need!!
Re: Suze –
He's not trying to keep you up on current events. He's trying to sale you on his health care plan so you'll pressure your elected officials into passing it through without reading it. That's what he's really doing. He missed the Gitmo deadline. He misread how the Stimulus would work, he isn't going to mention those I'm sure. This is his health care pitch to the nation.
our economy is in the shitter…ill take the president on TV over some lame ass reality show. this shouldnt even be a remote problem for any american regardless of if you like obama or not. stick to celebs perez….
he is a horror show married to a tranny.
what else would you expect from a narcissist marxist.
Re: kjen – So? As an American citizen, I have a duty to understand what's going on with the health care reform as well. Let him speak and hold your opinions until later. We have a right to hear things from the president directly rather than filtered through some newspaper reporter and editor. I stand by my original statement….I'd rather watch the president speak than some crappy reality tv show any day of the week.
i think its really important that we listen to what he has to say and keep an eye on ppl that are running our country considering thats how we got into this pile in the first place.
Re: star_brite – Have you been living under a rock? He's done nothing but bankrupt our Country more and doesn't care if he makes things worse with health care reform!!!
Oh great! We get to watch our Messiah Dumbama read from a teleprompter AGAIN! Does this dipshit ever have an original thought in his leftist brain?
Re: kjen – Excellent points there kjen! Yes he wants its all passed before Americans understand what it all entails. Yes you can keep your own private health care, but the malpractice insurance for doctors will rise AGAIN and thus the price of their services. Up goes your insurance. If you cant afford to keep it, your only means of coverage will be his health plan. It all sounds great just like a sweepstakes..until you read the fine print and find out you,ve been duped.
The idiot wants to be a "STAR" not a PRESIDENT!
Re: Hate Low Class People – You always crack me up!! lol
wtf!…i love obama, but he better not interrupt SYTYCD…do this on tue or thr!
ITS CALLED… "LOOK AT THE BRIGHT SHINY OBJECT", OR "KILL 'EM WITH KOOL"

THIS MAN HAS NO SUBSTANCE TO HIMSELF OR ANY OF HIS PROGRAMS!!

What's next for the Jima Carter retread? Malaise speach in a cartigan in front of the fireplace with the AC blasting? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Where is the money coming from for all the ads anti Obama health care plan?
.
Big health insurance groups to be sure! And the GOP which does not want to see Obama succeed.
.
They are threatened like wild sick beasts cornered in a ravine. While mortally wounded the snarl and snap!
.
Hospitals are closing. Emergency rooms filled to the brim.
.
Something has got to be done and Obama with his bi partisan leaders will get it done.
.
Don't be fooled by scare tactics!
maybe he wants us to be informed?? wtf is wrong w/ that?
Yea, because the stupid fucker wants to tell us why we should fuck up our health care system like Canada and why people with cancer die before receiving attention, it takes months to be seen even for something small and why we will continue to be a broke fucking country is this douchebag stays in office. Pick up a fucking paper Perez, the guy is a fucking idiot just like Bush and he is RUINING what shred of money and happiness that is left in our country!
Re: SWEETPIECE! –
What the fuck does this have to do with being republican or democrat?! Turn of MTV and get your own fucking opinion you ignorant piece of shit. The man is fucking up our country just like Bush and no one seems to give a fuck because he is a celebrity….not our fucking President but a fucking celebrity.
How can ANYONE justify what this man has done so far and plans to do? Mainstream media breeds ignorance.
His speeches are fluff, no substance
It's all rhetoric
Honestly ,as an American I feel bamboozled that we voted for him
I'm definitely voting AGAINST him in 2012–even if its Palin; I don't care-at least you know what you're getting
Obama = FRAUD
OH YEAH, BECAUSE WE CAN'T TAKE TIME AWAY FROM ALL THAT HIDEOUS REALITY TV..YOU KNOW LIKE PEREZ TRYING TO RAP, THAT WAS A CLASSIC. OUR COUNTRY IS BASICALLY IN RUINS AND ALL YOU ALL CHOOSE TO DO ABOUT IT IS BITCH. GREAT WAY TO MAKE THE COUNTRY A BETTER PLACE FOR ALL!
