Did you just see Obama tell Matt Lauer he wants to "know whose ass to kick"

[wndycty]

It was just on the NBC Nightly News. . .uploading it to YouTube as we speak!

Here is the video

1. kr

[deminks]

2. Yup. Gobama.

I would be happy to line up all the asses in a row to make it easier for you to kick.

But that would mean I might have to look backward to find most of them, just sayin.

[DrToast]

3. New media topic: Is Obama too angry?

[Kber]

6. Hah!

I have tomorrow, 9:15 am, on Fox News, in the poll for the first time this theme appears.

Any takers?,

[treestar]

7. You betcha!

[lamp_shade]

4. Oh geeze. Love it.

[AtomicKitten]

5. oh hell yes!!!!

[one_voice]

8. Wait...

still not enough emotion. He wasn't really angry when he said it. :sarcasm:


It made me laugh, and I'm glad he said it.

[3waygeek]

9. Two-word answer -- Dick Cheney

like he or anyone else with a soul needs a reason.

[rudy23]

10. I love the emotion---now find the right person and DO IT! Don't pretend it's hard to figure out.

I really hopes he keeps this up. This could be a textbook example of the sickness of the deregulated private sector the way Bush used FEMA as a textbook example of why government bureaucracy renders itself incompetent.

[Jennicut]

11. Is that enough emoting for the media?

[impik]

15. No! Because he's angry at the media! :)

[mucifer]

12. He has the power to send the justice dept after bp and the "regulators"

I'm gonna wait and see if he does before I get excited about a tv interview.

[vaberella]

18. He already sent the FBI out there to see if this is criminal.

Hence all this stuff with the MMS is coming out. If it does, then the Justice Dept. will get involved. However, if it doesn't--and they get off because of loopholes, well that's not Obama's fault. He's going to have done the best he could in casting out criminal charges. A lot of people slip through the cracks because their actions are not exactly criminal even if we want them to be.

[Atticus]

13. Sounded good, but ass-kicking is not a cerebral task. It just takes passion and a sense of balance.

As for the "who", I'll bet DU could provide a prioritized list. My number one would be Cheney, followed by his sock puppet.

[LeftyAndProud60]

14. He let them talk him into this. New shitstorm coming. NT

[PopSixSquish]

16. Watch Out Rahm, Your Title as Most Profane Member of the Administration is in Jeopardy.

:hide:

Seriously though, this how President Obama operates. He doesn't get mad but he usually gets even...

[Cha]

17. He outsmarts 'em..while the others are

freakin' out and blowing hot air..he's building a solid foundation.

[Kahuna]

19. Time to let, The Rock Obama do his thing..

:scared:

[Connie_Corleone]

20. Alrighty now!

:spank:

[politicasista]

21. LOL!

You go Mr. President. :kick: :patriot:

[Clio the Leo]

22. ehhhh ..... I dunno.....

... dance with who (or in this case, what) brought you.

But, far be it from me to question his political intuition.

We shall see.

[deadpelican]

23. Doesn't seen helpful at this time. Kinda of cowboy souinding retoric.

[SunsetDreams]

24. please

[besdayz]

25. start with your own mr president

you need a good kick start on this deal....

[Blue Owl]

26. Um, the PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION would be a good start

But you're too busy looking forward, as we understand...
