BBC......Obama is under pressure....

[BooScout]

Don't ask for a link because it's not on the website.....I just saw it live on the 10 O'clock news here in the UK.

The reporter was summing up an Obama press conference today saying it was rather contentious, with reporters pressing him on Canada, NAFTA, and Rezko.

Could his honeymoon with the press be over? :shrug: .....it sounds lke he is finally getting asked some real questions.

[anonymous171]

1. Can't wait until HRC's "experience" is debunked.

THAT will be funny.

[rodeodance]

26. The world knows of Hillary-----Obama's life/experience is starting to drip out!

[anonymous171]

27. 35 years and still no executive or legislative experience.

[Lucinda]

35. Google is your friend.

[rodeodance]

36. Obama--DRIP DRIP DRIP

[TheDeathadder]

46. don't wait too long

your life will pass you by

[GarbagemanLB]

2. It's over because the press realizes he has won the nomination.

[NightWatcher]

6. exactly, everyone knows this but the Clinton supporters

the "liberal media" starts cranking

[rodeodance]

34. clairvoyant ???????

[tekisui]

10. Exactly. They have a nominee to hit, and sell the papers.

[jillan]

3. CNN reporting on it right now too. They are saying it's because he is the frontrunner now.

[rodeodance]

63. haha--sounds like they were trying to find an excuse

[Rosa Luxemburg]

4. Guess who is behind the bad press?

[Hepburn]

18. Ummmmm.....

....who could that possibly be??? :sarcasm:

[Hawkeye-X]

5. Link or don't post bullshit.

Sorry, not buying it.

[BooScout]

12. Click on my profile........

see my location? Now go re-read my post. You want a link get a satellite with a live BBC television feed. Now take your bullshit elsewhere.

[Hawkeye-X]

41. Gee. Quelle Surprise - I get BBC here also

and I get BBC-American version on my DirecTV. I don't see anything reported on it, and I watch it frequently.

[BooScout]

44. BBC America isn't the same as the BBC broadcast in the UK

You have also been provided with a link to similar analysis on the BBC website that someone found for you. SUASD class over.

[libbygurl]

67. BBC UK is very different to BBC America - latter is watered down, lacking a lot of the....

UK original version. With many different channels and radio stations, too, in the UK.

[rug]

15. Only because you asked so nicely.

[BooScout]

17. Thanks.....

I saw the report live on the telly. of course I just post bullshit since it doesn't say Obama hung the moon.:evilgrin:

[rodeodance]

28. too bad--this is NOT-LBN and be polite!

[Kaylee]

7. I don't mind reporters being hard on the frontrunner....

I just hate the idea that his fellow Dem is behind him with a knife to his back.

[Vinca]

11. Exactly. She must have signed on with Karl Rove for a few extra bucks. nt

[Lilith Velkor]

60. Word. Republicans couldn't *possibly* have their own agenda in this.

:eyes:

[JKaiser]

8. I am worried about obama if he is the nominee I hope he can win

[stahbrett]

9. I can see what you're talking about - here's a picture of him:

[indimuse]

38. waving his finger again..

a lil' tired of that!

[Alexander]

49. But when Hillary does it, that's okay, right?

Hypocrite.

[redqueen]

13. Bad news for Clinton.

It appears the media have decided he's gonna be the nominee.

[carlotta]

14. I heard that Obama stormed off from his press conference

He usually stays and answers extra questions, but today he was not Mr. Charisma.

Do you suppose it's because for the first time, he's actually being asked to explain some potentially damaging stories?

[anigbrowl]

16. I heard you were spreading rumors

It was on the internet so it must be true. I don't have to explain where I heard it because that doesn't matter.

[BooScout]

19. How do you get 874 posts in less than a month?

Inquiring minds want to know.:eyes:

[Dogmudgeon]

21. One newbie got 2000 in just over a week.

I guess somebody has a boiler room operation and a lot of Ritalin.

--p!

[BooScout]

23. Damn.........do they ever sleep or eat or get potty breaks?

:evilgrin:

[Alexander]

52. Responding to people like carlotta, who racked up over 100 posts in 3 weeks.

Funny how you ignored that.

[libbygurl]

68. 100 in 3 weeks isn't a lot. 33 per week isn't a lot. 4 - 5 per day isn't a lot. ...

...should I go on?

Funny how you missed that sort of math.

[carlotta]

20. "Obama Gets Heated Over NAFTA Questions"

so there.

http://thepage.time.com/2008/03/03/obama-gets-heated-over-nafta-questions-a

[avrdream]

42. Nice try, Barry.

Wriggle out of this one.

Someone give him some better advice on this one before we get to the GE. McCain is going to seize on this and BO needs a better answer than that.

[rodeodance]

32. **Poor JUDGEMENT by BO--How can we trust him answer the 3 am PHONE??8**

[libbygurl]

69. Would've loved to see that. Can't handle the stress, eh? nt

[Orsino]

22. Gee. Who knew a presidential primary race could be stressful?

Non-story.

[rodeodance]

33. and he waked away huffed from a press conference---NOT a CRISIS man!

[rodeodance]

24. hoot----obama asked real questions!---GRAND! LOVE IT

[zabet]

25. He may have peaked his

'likeability' too soon. ;) If
he gets a little contentious
with a few serious questions
from reporters, whatever will
he do when it starts full blast
at him if he is the nominee?
He won't have Hillary around then
to agree with or to blame.

[Lilith Velkor]

61. His camp will blame her anyway

Never does it occur to them that Republicans are up to no good, Hillary is the Devil in their religion.

[rodeodance]

29. k

[JoFerret]

30. Too little, too late

Not that I want him to be shredded by hostile media.
I don't.
But I do want to see reporters do their jobs and to be fair about it.

I think they have been in a swoon and are now waking up and saying - HS - what have we created here?
And this will now be unfair on Obama. They should have engaged in intelligent digging and questioning from much earlier on.

[rodeodance]

31. ABC EVE NEWS--good report--showed Canada and BO BACKTRACKING ON NAFTA!!

[JackORoses]

37. what was the point of posting this? you claim BBC, but then provide no link

thanks for nothing.

[ProudToBeLiberal]

39. link provided

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/justinwebb/

feel better? i feel like i'm your mom lol.

[Hawkeye-X]

43. Gee, A blog! And by a useless reporter too!

Justin Webb is nothing but air.

[Orsino]

50. Which story?

I'm still not certain exactly what "gotcha" I'm supposed to be looking for.

[BooScout]

47. You do know that the BBC is the BRITISH BROADCASTING CORP

As in television right? Not every report is on the website that's on tv. Several links regarding that press conference have been provided throughout this thread...not all BBC.

Oh and this ain't LBN so my 'hope' for the day is that you can get a grip on reality.

[JackORoses]

54. why put that in the OP title unless you are trying to lure views?

then you don't even follow through. It's called bait and switch.

[BooScout]

56. Because I saw it on the BBC

It was on the nightly news in the UK by an UNBIASED news organization. I now see it being reported on by all the US News organisations. Good try at trying to discount the source but pretty much you lose the argument.:eyes:

[JackORoses]

58. I wasn't discounting the source, just your lame attempt to get views by pasting BBC in the OP

[BooScout]

59. Do you not get it?

I saw it reported on the BBC, the fact that a BBC reporter said Obama was contentious and under pressure was the whole point of the post. An unbiased reporter, not based in the US and not tied to any US News Organization owned by anyone with a preset agenda.

Now let's talk lame attempts .......as in yours in attempting to discredit facts in evidence.:eyes:

[rodeodance]

62. that particular poster is just a rapid fan

[indimuse]

40. day 1...

I wonder how many people are paying attention in Texas and Ohio...

[depakid]

45. "Could his honeymoon with the press be over?" Not even close

A lot of people here won't know what hit them when the "mighty corporate wurlitzer" cranks up.

This is just a little appetizer- the tiniest bite of what's to come. Expect to see a lot of whinging about how unfair it all is.

[JoFerret]

48. There is hope for the right outcome

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4l4_jMyV3mY

Drive the right wing crazy. Win the election. Bring the troops home. peace with honor. Protect America. get going with a focus on Iraq.

Plus take care of the economy and education.

Hillary can do all that better than anyone.

[rodeodance]

51. umm. BO does not respond well under pressure!!

[rodeodance]

53. k

[emilyg]

55. k/r

[anamandujano]

57. I saw it too, BBC news on PBS. It runs here in TX @ 6pm.

It was refreshing after listening to Brian fuckw*t Williams.

[rodeodance]

64. dang i missed it--i usually tune in.

[libbygurl]

65. About damned time.

:kick: Thanks for this titbit, BooScout!

[spanone]
