I have been far less than impressed with Boehner to date, but if he would *grow a set* he could force Obambam into a corner nearly every day… The vein in Obambam’s temple may just BURST!

Another speech? Can”t wait till 2012 so we never have to hear that voice or see his stupid face.

@ZIP

AP is a joke.

Hold your horses, guys!

That fraud is so malicious, I wouldn’t be surprised if he actually used his “address” to the nation to chide the GOP from the pulpit, saying something like he did not want to delay the speech, but the GOP put party before country by giving priority to their debate, blah blah blah.

Actually, I would be surprised if he did not go there…

Dem’s heads are assploding, this sophmore stunt makes them look absolutely stupid and incompetent, not that we need more proof.

Bet he’s really gonna be drinking tonight!

Spike! I’d rather watch a football sitting in the field all by itself, with no teams even, than watch that POS.

@Chaban:

My expectations exactly.

Piss off Hussein.. I’ll be watching the game with some cold beer and chips.. if there’s any left over from the debate..

Maybe if Barky had spent more than 2 fucking days in the senate , he would know how shit works. Dumb Fuck

Smack down MFER

Uh-uh. This is well-planned. Oblama knew exactly what he was doing when he set his speech for the exact same date and time of the Republican debate. Don’t know why yet (in my mind), but it was a big move on his part. THEN he caved with the first burp from Congress.

Watch the other hand. He is not innocent in this; he did this on purpose. Congress played right into his hand. Watch.

This way, by giving his speech the day after the debates, he’ll have much more ammo, in his way of thinking.

Oblablah got scared that the GOP debate would follow his Teleprompter reading with a rebuttal to his stupid proposals.

He was afraid that Mitchell would call him names.

Who the hell’s going to watch anyway…nobody cares anymore about his endless blather.

Football it is for me…or anything else but his mouth.

@Chaban,

Exactly. This is nothing but political mischief from a wanna be king. The thing we have to remember is that the President can not just show up at the Capitol and give a speech expecting an audience. He needs an invitation. If you hear people giving grief over this for the reasons you say, just tell them that.

A quick thumbnail because it’s a rabbit hole: The rules were set up that way from the beginning on purpose which hearkens back to the days of the English Civil War(s) and Charles I starting in the early 1640s, which by the way didn’t end well for either Charles I or II. It’s also one of the reasons why our founders established a republic with 3 separate, but equal branches of government. Congress does not serve at the command of our President like Parliament did for the king back then. Their only function at first was to collect taxes and if the king wanted money he would summon them to make it happen. Charles wanted that whole England, Scotland, Ireland combo and wanted money to fight for it, Parliament said no so Charles dissolved them. And then, as the saying goes: That’s when the fight started. Basically these wars came to an end with the establishment that the monarch can’t govern without the consent of Parliament.

Folks, don’t get all worked up over this speech.
1) Nothing is going to come from it other than lies. Look at all the last speeches where he was going to do all these great things for the economy and where are we today?
2) No one is going to watch it. Not with his ratings as they are and opening night regular season football with THAT game on.
3) No one believes him any more other than the lying JournOList media. Sure, they’re doing more for him than ever but it’s not working. If we hear his polls are at record lows, you can bet they’re far below that.
4) Not only is he up against THAT game but he’s up against opening of the school season for a lot of parents who are too busy to worry about what he has to say.
5) Finally, watch what he promises to do, then check back two weeks later and see where he is – I’d put $20 he’s been on the golf course twice since that speech – and absolutely nothing is done that he said he’d do.

Don’t be surprised if by March we’re hearing that Moo Moo or one of the kids is suffering from ‘exhaustion’ or some sickness preventing him from leading us to the promised land in a second term. And oh, darn, but it looks like Hillary will have to take his place. But don’t worry – he’ll be on the phone to counsel her on what she should do so he really won’t be away from us all…

I wont be listening to obamas oinking anyway dont care to hear his mindless oinking

Get bent barry….write it down and send it over…we’ll round file it when it comes..

I heard one talking head say he may have been worried how bad it would look if the debate really pounded his speech in the ratings. Sounds plausible. Looking at leftist websites, the commenting rabble are not pleased with his backing down on it.

Once again the GOP blows off its own toes.

They had the perfect opportunity to let the nation hear the Jobs Plan made of Hot Air and Tin-foil, by having each of the GOP 8 decline the swell opportunity allow NBC and POLITICO ask ridiculously partisan questions, Defer to the President and Win!

Nope. Whine like dweebs and give the President exactly what he planned last month – give a speech no one but Butch maddow will watch – NFL Kickoff between Greenbay and New Orleans, or ‘Make No Mistake, this Plan is a Sho ‘Nuff Plan, if only the Congress will act!’

Obama played the GOP, again, like tasseled loafer country club chumps.
