Btw, obama fans: u noticed that Iraq is falling back in the past month? I wonder who's to balme. Ah... Maybe a White House that said a few weeks earlier the the US is living Iraq no diff how things look on the ground?

Ha? Am just asking.

And for those who have some brains: the GDP report and ISM report of this passed week tells us that the economy is still in DEEEEEP trouble. Not even close to getting even a half drop better. So my obama friends: wake up of ur Nov dream, and get a sense of the facts.

that was great and funny. I like the face of the press corp when he walked in. Has Fox news said anything yet.

This will be another well researched, intelligent decision by Obama. Thanks Justice Souter for waiting.

Gotta love a Prez that can make us laugh!

Can you believe the political posturing from the party of NO? They have disrespected the President from the time he took office, and now, they dare to voice premature complaints....What am I saying? That is what they do best....

There is one president - a Democrat. This will be his decision. He has more than enough capable voices advising him.....Media and Pundits, stay in your respective places, and let the process flow.

P. S. A Latina female, an African American male or female....

Thank you, President Obama, for your willingness to come to the camera as soon as you know something and to be able to speak intelligently and clearly about the task at hand!
You continue to amaze me, and I am grateful that you are the POTUS!!

The person who has the qualities Pres. Obama spoke about at the press conference would be Michele Obama. However, I don't believe she has ever served as a judge....only a lawyer. But then, I don't know if holding a position as a judge is actually required.

It appears complete Truth is a little seconday somedays in Washington. I wonder who is the most honest politican in the city?
Is any of them humble? Does anyone have a quess?
It appears Washingon is a beautifully, historically built swamp with swamp creatures there for new arrivals to mock.
I love Specter's move. lol What a teaching moment for our youth. If they can't be an elected class representative for their class-fail and run in the next class' election or make sound proof deals that this years' rep can't run in the next year campaign because it has all ready been assigned -democracy at it's best.
What happened to serving our country and then going home?
They need to serve like our President and VP and go some place- not like Cheney but at least he is out of the office.

I just saw this on CNN (Ronald Martin was sitting in for Campbell Brown) and it was a fun moment. I liked Gibbs' reaction.

I always love impromptu visits by presidents. I enjoyed the questions as he was leaving, particularly when the one voice said "come back..." and trailed off.

What a refreshing change from the previous Administration! President Obama manages to keep so many balls in the air at the same time and yet has the time to pull a practical joke on Robert Gibbs and give the Press Corps a fun surprise.

Next time I want to see if he can dribble a basketball at the same time.

I soooooooo love our President!!!!!

What? You mean to tell me that Gibbs does not wear an earpiece?

I just love "maneuvered surprises" - don't you? Kinda takes "surprise" our of "suprise," eh?

I'll admit it... I'm pretty much a fan of 'almost' everything Obama (even though I really would have liked Hillary to be sitting in the Oval Office; but really, what's up with Gibbs?? He's like Laural & Hardy all wrapped up in one. This has to be one of the lamest decisions of Obama.
