I love Obama. He made a couple of gaffes on the show, though. I don't think he should do it again.

The CEO of AIG lit his cigar last night with a rolled up wad of $1000 bills while watching and laughed.

The Prez let his guard down and I hope he doesn't repeat the mistake.

I dont know too much about politics but I do know president Obama can answer questions quickly and makes sense and seems to be down to earth unlike president bush who some days I wondered what planet he was on

I am sure Obama, being as intelligent as he is with a law degree, had no intentions on downing the special olympics. I am sure he meant that he is not a good bowler and there are others that have special needs that can possibly do a better job then he can in sports. I am sure many special needs people can understand that those with average intelligence is limited some in everyday routines.Those of you who want to criticize Obama need to be criticizing the senator that wants to block the votes on taxing the ceo's that received those bonus checks. If the ceo's gave up that bonus money the deficit would not be as bad as it is. Now all of a sudden the republicans are worried about the money that Obama is trying to dish out to save many of the American people from proverty. At that something.

Those of you that are working, How many of you have seen an increase on your payroll checks. Many of you who did not vote for Obama is going to see a difference in your financial well being before it is all done with. Stop being HATERS AND SORE LOOSERS REPUBLICANS. If you can't beat them join them. U will be better off.

Republicans all over the U.S. want to set up Rally's to discourage the progress that Obama has made so far. They did not rally to save the thousands of soldiers dying for nothing in a war thta was set up by Bush and Cheney. Cheney made millions off the war sending his contractors in Iraq. There is no rally concerning that. What about th weapons of mass construction? Where are they? Haters hate no matter what. Obama says he can't do it alone. Contact your congressman let him know that you want the American people to benift from there hard work and labor not the ceo's tha sit around making money doing nothing but sitting in their big chairs figuring how to make money off of the middle class people.

Some people are going to say and do many evil things to try to make Obama look bad when his only intentions is to help to make America better than it has been in the past 8 years. The devil is always buzy and the demons are always lurking within the evil,selfish,controlling,hater s.

Coming from a family of Republicans I (not registered to either party) am 1st and foremost a Patriot and stand behind our country and it's President. People are nitpicking and need to lay off complaining about the little things. He is a human being and I appreciate his staying real. I'm confident that the special olympics comment was harmless. He seems approachable and truely genuine. Get real people and give him a break. We all need to go back to basics and realize that our cold,cruel, selfish and materialist ways got us here. Don't blame anyone but ourselves. Our morals and values have been lost and thats what needs to be re-evaluated and corrected. Kindness is rare. I'm tired of feeling hopeless and angry. Let's all pitch in and work together to make not only our childrens future better and brighter but ours as well. It doesn't take much! Get Back the Hope!
