At the start, it sounded like the typical rhythm of a presidential press conference, [...]

Climbing the communications summit
By Pete Seat | Thursday, April 02, 2009
On Tuesday night, just a few hours before I departed London, President Barack Obama arrived, becoming only the 14th president to travel across the Atlantic while in office. Until President [...]
President Obama took to the East Room stage again last night to discuss the economy, and specifically his budget proposal currently before Congress. Primetime press conferences are an ace that only president’s can play.  Who else can convince network and cable TV to preempt huge hits like Biggest Loser and American Idol? (Unless Ross Perot pays for the time, [...]
According to Dictionary.com the definition of “bipartisan” is the following:

In the Obama Dictionary Version 2009 the definition is:
bi-par-ti-san /[bahy-pahr-tuh-zuhn] - adj. a one-way street representing, characterized by, or including members from two parties or factions embracing every presidential agenda item with open [...]
Our friend Molly Lyons over at FOX News’ Live Desk (@livedesk on Twitter) sent out a note asking the tweeting masses about their thoughts on the Obama Administration’s plan to curb executive pay on Wall Street. Since my less than 140 character response to her was…well…short…here’s more.

Here’s what I’ll be thinking about this weekend, let me know if you have any thoughts.

Obama offers too much material for critics
By Pete Seat
Times Columnist
I have been very critical of the still infant Obama administration. But with all the precious [...]
During the fall of ‘08, President George W. Bush cancelled out-of-state events and in-town interviews left and right to focus on our nation’s economic woes. See ABC and FOX for a few examples.Â
How focused is President Obama on an economy that has only gotten worse?  You should ask ESPN. Seems that even with more Americans losing their jobs, a failing stimulus plan [...]
Chris Cillizza (@TheFix on Twitter) of the Washington Post just posted thisstory about Indiana Senator Evan Bayh’s dissenting ways in Washington. Cillizza points out that Bayh has frequently been vocal with his disapproval of Obama’s policies and is leading a group of 14 centrist Democrats in weekly meetings to plot ways to increase their influence on [...]
A day behind, but great piece from Time magazine on Obama feigning populist outrage at AIG bonuses. As the days go on, we’re learning more and more about how much the Administration and Members of Congress knew about this plan. Some knew for days, weeks, months and possibly a year ago. Demanding answers and reprecussions [...]
