MSNBC pundits must of all had there marching orders to talk negative about the speech

[bigdarryl]

Even Mellisa Perry Harris was talking crazy saying this is helped by the GOP WTF!!! the only one who made since tonight was Tweety he said the rethugs need to stop pretending there on the same footing as the President when responding like there in an oval office setting

[Armstead]

1. She was absolutely correct -- The Balanced Approach is the GOP Approach

[RBInMaine]

13. Oh how crazy. Just stop. Grow up and do it quick. Start with some middle school history and civics.

[Armstead]

[Doctor Hurt]

[bigdarryl]

5. These pundits don't get it the President wasn't speaking to them he was speaking to average poor and

working Americans

[Armstead]

8. Then he should stop selling them GOP Conservative policies

[bigdarryl]

10. Remember the President don't have the numbers in Congress to get what he wants that is always lost

in the discussion

[Armstead]

18. The "President is impotent" defense again. It's so tiresome...

If the Presidency is so weak, then it really doesn't matter who is living in the White House.

Whatever happened to "Yes we can"?

[Carolina Lady]

21. I'm not sure but,

I think that Yes We Can turned into,"Here you go Obama, you take it from here, we've got things to do. :shrug:

[Armstead]

25. For some maybe. But for many it's "We're ready to help. So why do you keep telling us we're wrong?"

[quakerboy]

22. Isnt that kinda the point

of going to the people? The call to action? To get the people to make the votes to get what he feels is right done?

Otherwise he could have skipped going out tonight, and just made a deal based on what the numbers in congress will already allow.

[alcibiades_mystery]

6. They all thought Mccain won he debates, too

Until the polls rolled in...

:eyes:

12. This speech was for the centrist voters in this country and those who haven't been paying attention.

DU got the Obama we all wanted in that presser on Friday when he came swinging the sledge hammer against the GOP while he was fresh with emotion and ready to knock heads. That's never an Obama we'll hear on a primetime address.

[RBInMaine]

14. That's right. He does actually have to GOVERN. And he to be EVERYONE's President, not just DU's.

[EffieBlack]

15. Can you imagine if he came out with that tone and demeanor tonight?

There are times and places for everything and the President knows this.

[Parker CA]

16. Absolutely. It would've been excoriated as the 'angry black man' from all the

talkers on the tv machine.

[Akoto]

17. Ed doesn't seem to have received those orders. He's on Obama's side. n/t

[blueclown]

20. When the Obama rubber stampers are bashing Mrs. Harris-Perry...

You know that they have flew off the deep end. President Obama is going to be criticized at times, and those criticisms are going to be valid, and the Obama rubber stampers are going to have to deal with it. Obama is not right 100% of the time. Let me remind of you of Harris-Perry's history. She does not belong to the Jane Hamsher and Arrianna Huffington part of the liberal wing of the Democratic Party. In fact, she's been one of the President's biggest supporters. But where she is different from the Obama rubber stampers is that she actually believes in something other than rubber-stamping the President's agenda. She thinks for herself. You will just have to deal with it. It is absolutely absurd to suggest that there is an agenda on MSNBC of all places to bash the President.

[Supersedeas]

26. And there will be occasions where MHP is wrong and the President and his supporters are right

To your point, I agree that MHP does not take marching orders from MSNBC higher-ups, but that doesn't mean that there aren't some talking points floating around the MSNBC hallways for anchors and hosts to peruse. So much of the content from day-time MSNBC chattering heads sound too much alike not to be a 'shared' opinion.

[blueclown]

28. It's simply absurd to state that MHP is getting talking points from MSNBC.

MHP may be wrong and President Obama's supporters may be right at times, but certainly not this time. Melissa Harris-Perry has been one of President Obama's biggest supporters.

[Supersedeas]

29. It might be absurd to state that....but I didn't

MHP may be wrong...yes (already stated)

Obama supporters may be right...yes (already stated)

But not this time....dunno (subject to debate)

MHP has been a BO supporter...true (at least sometimes) -- "has been" suggest that she was but is not longer...dunno if I'd go so far as that...

[AtomicKitten]

23. I don't know what you were watching but the MSNBC pundits were eviscerating the GOP.

[Raine]

24. HUH??? All of them bent over backwards to say nice things about Obama's speech

you must have turned on Faux by accident! :wow:
