Q: Time to close to border with the diseased mexicans?

Obama: It's cause for concern, but not panic. I've talked to lots of smart people. We shouldn't close the mexican border because the swine flu is already everywhere inside U.S. Need $1.5 Billion more for the flu. We are doing everything we can to contain the swine flu. We must be vigilant and watch out for the flu. Remember to wash your hands, everyone. If you gots the swine flu, please stay the hell away from everyone else.

Q: Bankruptcy only option for chrysler? GM cuts deep enough?

Obama: chrysler is going to keep existing, so yay. GM needs to submit their plans to us. GM has lots of good cars (srsly). I would love for gubment to get outta auto business soon. Tough time toughchoices blah blah blah. Gubment must provide assistence.

Good question from Tapper. Pretty slick answer/dodge by Barry.

No hippies in the WH Press Corps. BAN.

Q: Waterboarding = torture. torture = illegal. bush did waterboarding. Bush goto jail?

Obama: Waterboarding is torture. Waterboarding is bad. Churchill didn't torture Germans while britain was getting the **** bombed outta them. Torturing the nazis would have made british people worse ppl. America is a beacon to the world. I am very comfortable with stopping waterboarding my terrorist friends, very happy. Waterboarding was mistake.

Q: Cheney said enhaced torture techniques was making america safe.

Obama: we gots lots of info from tortured terrorists. Doesn't mean that we couldn't get that info with just being nice.

Did he say "I suck sry I quit" yet?

Q: Can america secure Paki nukes from Taliban/AL Qaeda

Obama: I am concerned about pakistan. Pakistan is fragile. No schools... no rule of law... no judicial system... ACers dream imo. need to help pakistan. Pakistan needs to stop worrying about India. India is harmless imo. Worry about the taliban.

Q: Could military secure paki nukes?

Obama : STFU, not answering that.

Q: Is the violence in iraq gonna effect withdrawal?

Obama: Political system is functioning in Iraq. Military needs to destroy remnants of al qaeda in iraq. divvying oil and political boundaries and kurds is serious business.

Q: Spector swapped parties. You gots 60 in senate (almost). how hudge is this and what does this say about LOLpublicans?

Obama : I like spectors lots. Arlen Spector has been liberated by the democratic party. He will be showering me and nancy pelosi with flowers later tonight. Senate still not rubber stampy enough for my liking. There will be compromises. Republicans need to realize that when I reach out to them they best take my hand and work with me. Repubs still being lil bitches and not working wit me.

Q: Repubs in the ****ter?

Obama: I don't believe in crystal balls. Repubcs need to stop opposing me and join the dark side.

This is mildly amusing.

Edit: this was what was amusing:

Q; Abortion still above your pay grade, since you make more monies now?

Obama: Abortion is both moral and ethical. Abortion is an issue women have to wrestle with. Preferably in a mud filled pool. People should consult with their doctors and clergy before they get an abortion. I have an Abortion task force in the white house, mostly because I don't like the feel of rubbers.

Q: What has surprised/enchanted/troubled/humbled you?

OBAMA: LOLZ, enchanted???? WTF IS WRONG WIT YOU!?!/!
Surprised? Surprised by the number of issues that I've had to deal wit.
Troubled? Change is slow in washington imo. Stop bickering and change already politicians.
Enchanted? Meeting troops is... wtf, enchanted, srsly? you're not getting a white house press pass again. Troops are awesome.
Humbled? I am powerful as hell now. My power humbles me. Can't press buttons and control people's minds though. Need to work on that one.

nice level IMO... we have all clearly seen him do this.

He might be able to read off a teleprompter just fine, but he's a horrible off-the-cuff speaker.

Q: Are you gonna reach out to McCain on immigration?

Obama: I reach out to McCain lots. Illegal immigration is bad. need framework to fix the border

Q: your view of state secrets?

Obama: should be modified.

Q: You owns fannie and freddie.

Obama: I don;t like owning banks and auto companies. We had to step in. American needs to have some auto companies. we shouldn't just give them monies, but rather, assist them in restructuring. America shouldn't micromanage companies, but rather merely scrutinize them. If the japs can build hybrids then americans should too. Criticism of my expansion of government amuses me immensely.

When he said 'we don't want big government' it was like I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Flying monkey tilt. FLYING. MONKEY. TILT.

Northern Ireland would have a little different view of the way the British treat people suspected of terrorism....

Why do you hate America and want it to fail?

ty STA654

Tough, probing, importent, key question.

Sort of the same reaction I have when you say you don't want big government and support McCain.

LOLLL.

This thread is off to a great start!
5 stars!

What freedom lover wouldn't want the American government to fail?

Was Tapper the guy that basically asked the "ticking time bomb" torture question? I was listening on the radio and literallly lolled.

Yay, thank you STA654!

Thread only needs cleverer Obama-haters.

I lol'd.

Yes, I supported McCain over Obama because I felt he was the only viable option at the time. I've since realized that was a mistake. That doesn't make what obama said not make my head completely asplode.

No need to be clever. The guy is a clown and the sight of him makes my stomach turn.

Actually, when I accidentally catch a glimpse of The Savior, I embarrassingly turn my head, or insta change the channel. Like ignoring a bad dream when you are half asleep.

Clever? Nah. No reason to try.
