Why I love the President

Mar 24, 2009 20:43

When asked why it took a few days to express outrage at the AIG bonuses:

"It took a few days because I like to know what I'm talking about before I speak."

BEST. LINE. EVER.

....and the Obama party continues. Looking forward to seeing Rachel and Ana Marie because they're always so adorable together.

I saw some of the NASA TV playback of him speaking to the astronauts last night. EVERYONE was secretly squeeing, it seemed.

Rachel was saying that President's media blitz had gone intergalactic. (Since it had alredy gone international when he had a column in some of the European papers.)

Seriously...so freakin' cool. I know we have a long way to go, but just waking up knowing that he's president and NOT BUSH, makes every day that little bit better.

Presumably he had it prepared, but even so, it was the reporter who walked into it and Obama who delivered it so perfectly.

Seriously. I also loved his answer about how everything that comes to him is hard, because if it was easy, someone else would have done it already.
