1. at 9:40?

Odd time. Is this live?

[jefferson_dem]

2. Strong presentation.

Firm, thoughtful, "presidential"!

[jenmito]

4. YES! And he interrupted Wolf before he could finish the line he's been using all day!

Good for him!

[jenmito]

3. Thanks...

I'm SO happy with his answer re: Wolf's smear about Axelrod blaming Hillary for Bhutto's assassination! GREAT answer. He not only mentioned it was a response to a question, but he said it was a question that the reporter shouldn't have asked!

5. He cut ole Wolfie's knees off

Didn't even let him get the spin out.

That was effective.

[jenmito]

6. I've been waiting all day for that! I was angry all day at the way CNN was spinning that

and Obama finally set him straight!

[BeyondGeography]

7. That's how that story ends

great how he stepped all over the bastard...he was ready.

[jenmito]

8. Yup. I don't think I've ever seen him so aggressive.

I liked it! I know he won't let ANYONE smear him when they try.

[TeamJordan23]

9. CNN was totally spinning it. Obama put Wolf in his place.

[Joe the Revelator]

11. What a great answer to that question.

Hopefully Wolf wil stop shilling now.

10. It must be so frustrating when

the corporatemediawhores are up there on their pedestal and start spewing the lies and you can't reach through the screen and give your rebuttal! :( I had to stop in Nov, 2002 but it's a good thing you guys stay on top of it or they'd keep the lies goin' until their last fetid breath.

[Skip Intro]

12. I missed it. Could someone recap what was said?

[jenmito]

13. It repeats at 12:40AM...

but basically, Wolf first asked what HE as president would do now. He answered, saying he'd make sure Musharraf continued with the Dem. process, he'd make sure all nukes were secured, (I think he said he called people and found out they were), would withhold aid 'til he was sure of certain conditions being met, etc. THEN Wolf said he wanted to quote something Axelrod said, slamming Hillary, blaming her in part for the assassination due to her support of the war (paraphrasing), and before he could read the quote Obama interrupted him, saying he knows what he's going to read and that's not true-that Axelrod was asked a question by a reporter, and that the reporter shouldn't have even asked the question, but all he was doing was answering a direct question. Wolf KEPT trying to talk over him and read it but Obama insisted and won the "interruption game."

14. Good summary...He also told Wolf he should know better in so many words

[jenmito]

15. Thanks. That's right. He sure did! That was the first time I smiled all day.

Very good job by Obama.

19. Who's Axelrod? nt

[peoli]

16. He would conviene a meeting with all Muslim leaders

[jenmito]

17. Oh, that's right. Thanks for bringing that up!
