    President Barack Obama's Press Conference, March 24, 2009 (Full Video and Transcript)

    The best part of this presser was Obama's smackdown on Ed Henry of CNN, who kept drilling Obama and kept asking him repeatedly of why he did not reveal the information about AIG, Obama turned and snapped, "I like to know what I am talking about before I speak." The whole room laughed. See below.

    I thought the President did a great job in the presser.. Articulate, focused and laid out his plans.

    Henry's smackdown is definitely a classic... loved it!

    "I like to know what I'm talking about before I speak."

    How refreshing is that? We have a president who thinks before he opens his mouth!

    Obama didn't speak sooner because he had no idea how he was supposed to react. He was waiting to see how the people wanted him to react. He's just a dope who doesn't have a simgle thought about what to do next so he waits.

    Laura you need a cup of WTHU (Wake the hell up). for real. Obama not only TOLD Henry he put all those lazy assed reporters on NOTICE. Want to ask a question? Make it relevant, not a manufactured bullshit gotcha job that Henry tried to do last night. His ass was served on a platter and he and CNN knows it. WORD. Thanks for visiting!!

    Learn how to spell, before you talk about the President Obama. You spell and sound like Goerge Bush, you must be Laura Bush. It is clear that you dont think before you talk or proof read after you type.

    Absolutely great job - President Obama has vision and understands clearly what the long-term priorities should be rather than focusing on short-term goals that will keep some people happy but will not last for long.

    I Enjoyed The Entire Press Conference. President Obama Most Definitely Controlled The Energy In The Room. In The Past...Reporters Can Be So Disorganized And Disrespectful, I Did Not Witness Such Chaos This Time Around. Obama Once Again Proves The Intelligence Of His Mind And His Tolerance Of Foolishness...
    You Have The Support Of The Mass Communities Mr. President...And This Is All That Matters...
