Obama ‘Town Hall’ . . . Or Jonas Brothers Concert?

“Obama’s Unscreened Town Hall Audience Is Clean Break From Bush’s Supporters-Only Public Events” — headline, liberal “Think Progress” website

No Republicans in Orange County? Guess not. What used to be the most Republican of strongholds in California sounded more like a one-man Jonas Brothers concert when Pres. Obama staged a supposed “town hall” today.  View—no—listen to the clip I’ve edited of the crowd reaction. Not only did they cheer like a bunch of giddy 12-year old girls.  At one point they broke into an “O-BA-MA!” chant. When’s the last time you heard that at a “town hall”?

Cheering, chanting, standing-Os and shouts of “I love you!”  And don’t miss the moment when, informing the crowd that he’s taking his jacket off, Pres. Obama announces “I’m hot.” Crowd goes wild. Oh, and did I mention there was not one tough question? First question: will you run for a second term?  Tough stuff! Go ahead, Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, Robert Gibbs. Tell us this was crowd was unscreened.

a-rodmirrorI went to an Obama town Hall . . . and an A-Rod “Details” photo shoot broke out.

Note: some of the biggest screams of approval came whenever Pres. Obama talked about spending more on education.  Think some teacher-union members might have been bussed in?

    LOL-Maybe the republicans in Orange County have already fled to Nevada to escape California’s confiscatory taxes?

    Nothing about this mysterious man, who no one had heard of three years ago, is real.

    Just ask the teleprompter guy.

    Did anyone else notice that Obama always looked the same two places as he does when he READS FROM THE TELEPROMPTER? He was reading from a script. How do you prepare a response for questions that haven’t been asked yet? Maybe he goes to the same psychic as Nancy Reagan did.

    This was obviously a BY INVITATION ONLY meeting that was set up by the administration and the propaganda media. We all know how Obama messes up when he has to use his brain to answer questions. His roll model is Joe Biden!!!
