The President Looks Bad

Evasive and angry looking.

Brett is pressing well. Asking questions viewers have sent in.

Watching Special Report now, exclusive interview.

Obama won't rule out using the slaughter rule, won't define what special state deals are in and out.

...Brett asks about the double-counting of Medicare savings. (Per the CBO)

Not a believable answer. ...Oh, he's laying it off on the "fiscal commission". But still claims it doesn't weaken Medicare.

...Brett asks about the Doctor Fix being left out of it.

Obama says it was a problem before and has nothing to do with his health care plan (!)

What a dufus Obama is--He's trying to take over the whole health care system but he doesn't propose workable or comprehensive solutions. What a useless approach. What a clueless president.

More. Brit Hume's take on the interview. He says you don't have a choice but to interrupt the president. Brit says the president didn't have any satisfactory answer on the medicare savings.

Doubts if Obama moved the needle at all...tells us more that he actually did the interview--means he doesn't have the votes.

UPDATE. Transcript.
