"This will be Obama's third prime-time news conference as president, a schedule that has caused some private grumbling among network executives. Carrying a news conference costs the four broadcast networks an estimated $10 million-plus in lost advertising revenue.These speeches aren't PSAs they are OVCs ..... Obama Voice Checks.
Yet with an economy in distress, two wars and now a swine flu outbreak, the pressure on networks to agree to Obama's request as a public service is enormous."
This man just loves the sound of his own voice!
Has any President given as many speeches as he has?? Did FDR give this many speeches during WW2?
This is what the Saturday morning Presidential address is for - dweeb.
Okay before I say this - let me point out that I am not in any way saying these two people are alike as people - the only person I can think of who liked the sound of his own voice more, the only other person I can think of who gave possibly more speeches than Obama right now is Hitler.
Obama feels that if he talks enough people will ignore everything else that's going on .... and the sad part is for the most part its true. His administration is really good at drawing your attention to one hand while the other picks your pocket.
