I have to admit I thought for sure that Obama was going to introduce a genuine economic solution to the problems that Americans face today.

We kept hearing all the hype for a week or so.

Now it seems He is side-stepping and hemming and hawing and gulping and gasping as usual.


President Barack Obama's speech at Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois was billed as an address on the economy, the first of a series of economic orations. Yet instead of presenting a policy agenda, Obama launched a partisan attack reminiscent of his most blistering addresses of the 2012 presidential campaign, dismissing concerns about "phony scandals" and attacking Republicans for promoting "gridlock" in Washington.

As predicted, Obama claimed credit for increases in private sector job growth. Yet he also focused on "the one percent," attacking the growth of economic inequality in American society, calling for a renewed emphasis on shared prosperity. He hearkened back to his 2005 address in Galesburg, which praised Franklin Delano Roosevelt, but Wednesday's speech was more reminiscent of his leftist rhetoric in Osawatomie in 2011.

What ARE they going to do about the massive economic problem that is facing the average American ?

Did Obama say anything at all that makes sense ?

Who does He think He's talking to anyway ?

I am deeply disappointed


My hopes are shot to Hell now

Here's a segment of "The Speech" (if we can call it a "speech")

Very telling with the eye movement and hand gestures.

Watch how his eyes stay focused upwards ......

a tell-tale sign of a fox on the hunt

FULL SPEECH President Barack Obama delivers remarks about the state of America's economy from Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois Full speech address President Obama: "I will not allow gridlock, inaction, or willful indifference to get in our way." Obama on helping the middle class: "I will not allow gridlock, or inaction, or willful indifference to get in our way."



He's campaigning for 2014 candidates.

I think we need to believe the 'opposite' of what he says.

He has outlined all his failures pretty much !!

Good Job !

'Phoney scandals'.... Yeah right... More like factual scandals. Obama is just lying his butt off left and right. This is beyond stupid at this point...

Like the Obama admin cares about the middle class...

Case and point here. Obama is a big liar and he's not even good at doing it. At least if your gonna try to pull off a lie, you better have a way to cover you butt after you do it. Obama isn't smart enough.

Ooooh! Does he mean the same way that he wouldn't allow Detroit to go bankrupt?

Watch out, middle class people.

Its like a broken record.

I could not discern a action plan at all.

That is what you do when your facing issues right, you formulate an action plan to fix it? Not reiterate things you want to take credit for or make excuses.

Roosevelt eh?

Lets take the words of someone who was there during the Roosevelt Era.


[Roosevelt] was always... finding new victims to loot and new followers to reward, flouting common sense, and boldly denying its existence, demonstrating by his anti-logic that two and two made five, promising larger and larger slices of the moon. His career will greatly engage historians, if any good ones ever appear in America, but it will be of even more interest to psychologists. He was the first American to penetrate to the real depths of vulgar stupidity. He never made the mistake of overestimating the intelligence of the American mob. He was its unparalleled professor. April 15, 1945

Obama's phony attack's on everything, and everyone, but who should be, himself.

What else has he got????? Nothing. Look at the ideals of Progressives in the hand of the downfall of Detroit.

He has nothing except to deflect and attack. Alinsky model of running things.

That's why he doesn't care. He already has four years lined up and doesn't have to worry about another election...

Just like his predecessor is claiming job growth within the service sector in the nation this jobs are all minimum wage jobs and many like restaurants pay under minimum wages base on tips

I guess Obama like Bush still believe that most Americans are that dump and stupid to figure out what the scam of job growth is all about.

The markets are doing great but what they don't tell is due to the increasing prices of gas in the nation also, that will put a dent on the working class as usual plus the billions a month that are pay to wall street to big to fail with the QEs

Our system of government is the biggest joke in the world and is thank to the gullible and dump that praise the so call "gains and job growth".

Obama like any other politicrap have no clue to fix the economy, create jobs and fix the inequality in the nation, all he does is increasing the welfare state to keep the poor from rioting in the streets looking for food, but what people doesn't get either is that for each of those welfare checks and food stamps give away is one hard working American paying taxes while living pay check to pay check so somebody else get a free ride on the system.

Obama seems to love that, keeping the rich richer and working class enslave to support the none working welfare class.

No body have a solution to fix the nation no body because the rich will never give away what they have.

Thank God at least some Conservatives in Congress still have half a brain.

Just think about what the state of affairs would be if the Liberals had full control !!!

Obama 'enjoyed' a full 'friendly' Congress during his first two years.....

What did THEY do to for the majority of American citizens ??

I am very disappointed with Obama.

He let everybody down

You do know that none of that refutes one word in the op, but it as clear as hell it is just a deflection tactic, exactly like the Potus does.

Talk about everyone and everything but his EPIC failures.

Yes he did, actually it looks now that he in his second term that he will never deliver what he promised, the reason is simple, like any other crappy candidate they tell what people wants to hear, they talk about dreams and hopes and changes, but at the end he actually never said how he was going to accomplish that any of that.

No candidate will tell the people they are trying to win how they will accomplish what they promise or when.

That is the key, they can win, walk the walk while screwing those that trusted them because is not really a time line.

What is there in the OP to refute? Socialist this...yada, yada that...it is without substance. It is screamingly ironic that a Briebart article complains about the rhetoric of a speech...with a huge pointless fart of an article.

Again...there is plenty of issues to debate with this POTUS like any other...but Briebart.com's contribution is as useful as it's birther theme.

What was it in the OP that you found specific?

Can I borrow that? It's freaking great and on a level that I think my brother in law might just actually understand.

He's kinda slow.
