1. Very nice

"For everyone pointing fingers, just blame me. And let's start fixing the problem."

[RepublicanElephant]

2. this gonna backfire in a major way.

prez says it's time to clamp down on these large-scale risky financial schemes.

goodbye capitalism gone amok.

hello more gov't regulation.

suck on it, reagan!

[RepublicanElephant]

3. the crowd is loving this! nt

[polichick]

4. I'm sure it'll do him good to get out among the voters and away from DC.

[wndycty]

5. Oh oh, its turning into a rally . . .

. . .LOL

The crowd is chanting "Obama, Obama, Obama"

And there was a "love ya back" that the crowd loved.

[elizm]

13. That "love ya back" put a big smile on my face!

God I love hearing him again!

[RepublicanElephant]

6. he's explaining his budget in detail, reminding people why he ran for president.

...and the crowd goes wild again!

says he can handle more than one problem at a time.

...and the crowd stands and chant "o-bama. o-bama."

the "hecklers" are crying-out "we love you!"


the american people know who's got their backs, despite the best efforts of the corporate media to smear him.

[ProSense]

7. Dear GOP and Blue Dog Dems turn it on MSNBC

Obama got this.

:rofl:

[Parker CA]

8. He's got them going good! This is great!! n/t.

[jenmito]

9. I'm watching the two guys in back of him. At first, neither one was even nodding.

Then they started nodding and then they started applauding.

[jenmito]

10. I thought this type of thing was going to be done after the election. I'm SOOO happy to see him

doing this now.

[RepublicanElephant]

11. and now he's taking questions.

he's taking his jacket off, and the crowd goes wild!

[Parker CA]

16. First question: Do you have intentions for running for office again?

Wow, start out with a nice softball there.

[Parker CA]

12. Saying he isn't staging questions, no pre-selections, ask what you want, call him a bum. This guy

great. Taking off his jacket and getting whistled at, HAHAHA.

[Katha]

14. Did the president just get catcalled when he took off his jacket?

:rofl:

[jenmito]

18. Yup. That was me-I didn't think anyone could hear me from here in NY!

:D

[wndycty]

19. Yup

:kick:

[JSK]

15. Be still, my heart

This is amazing. And in freakin' fundie Orange County.

[nc4bo]

17. The problem is

MSNBC is the only station showing it far as I can tell.

Edit. CNN showing it too!

Grrrrrrr.

[RepublicanElephant]

20. faux news showed it briefly, while talking all over it, then finally switched away completely. nt

[nc4bo]

28. What is this, media black out? Should be showing on regular network stations

or local tv stations at the very least. Alot of people don't have cable tv.

If they start blacking out these townhalls, how are people going to hear what Obama has to say?

[RepublicanElephant]

29. bingo! you just answered your own question. nt

[Joe the Liberal]

nevermind.......

he's doing it now!

[blaze]

23. Yup!

He asked everyone to try to keep their questions or comments short and said he would try to do likewise. :)

[blaze]

21. LOL!

I just *knew* Obama couldn't keep his answers short!!! :rofl:

Ah this is sweet.
