Obama Farewell Speech at 9pm EST Ready to Start

The President is in Chicago and preparing for his Farewell Speech.

It's starts at 9pm Eastern time.

I'm sure there will be wide coverage on TV and radio and on internet.

A Whitehouse cite is supposedly airing it live too.

This will be a truly historical event !!

President Obama's message on his Farewell Address

In 1796, as George Washington set the precedent for a peaceful, democratic transfer of power, he also set a precedent by penning a farewell address to the American people. And over the 220 years since, many American presidents have followed his lead.

On Tuesday, January 10, I'll go home to Chicago to say my grateful farewell to you, even if you can't be there in person.

I'm just beginning to write my remarks. But I'm thinking about them as a chance to say thank you for this amazing journey, to celebrate the ways you've changed this country for the better these past eight years, and to offer some thoughts on where we all go from here.

Since 2009, we've faced our fair share of challenges, and come through them stronger. That's because we have never let go of a belief that has guided us ever since our founding—our conviction that, together, we can change this country for the better.

So I hope you'll join me one last time.

Because, for me, it's always been about you.

President Barack Obama

Sorry , too boring . Nothing but , ummm , I I I and me me me
Unless there are many tears. That would make it worth it.
I have my own tears . Tears of joyous laughter now that the worst President in the Modern Age is leaving. Jimmy Carter probably celebrating as well for being released from that same dubious honor

Obama Farewell Speech at 9pm EST Ready to Start

Here's a preview.

Obama: I know you all love me, and I am so AWESOME.

Bask in my AWESOME.

I am just so AWESOME.

EVERYONE just loves me.


Repeated, and repeated,

Tonite will totally be self aggrandizing.

But think of the possible gaffs !!

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

It's going to be nothing but Obama lying, patting himself on the back and giving "advice" to Trump. He needs to just get the hell out and go play golf... or something...anything...as long as he leaves.

On Tuesday, January 10, I'll go home to Chicago to say my grateful farewell to you, even if you can't be there in person.

Chicago people.

The number 1 city for bed bugs.

From the ops other thread for the link.

Taboo is on in an hour.

Going to watch that instead.

Obama was so 2016.

a reply to: xuenchen

Considering your other thread what makes you think this is a farewell speech?

Would be so funny to see a bunch of angry, disenfranchised, hoodlums show up armed to the teeth.

That's what I'm hoping for. heh-heh

Tough choice.

I voted for you in 2008 and you quickly dropped the ball on everything.
Your back broke and you sold out to MONEY.
Just like every other president except for maybe LBJ, JFK or Carter.

So much hope was placed in you yet just like everyone before you, you quickly crumbled to keep your golf game in good standing or maybe not get killed by your handlers.

Will Trump fail us as well?

Probably.

I bet this will be reminiscent of a Kim Jung interview where he gets to relay all his super hero achievements and discoveries. It won't even be a low key attempt to pass off total BS, it will be so ridiculous and matter of fact.. Without any facts.

Don't feel bad EG. I don't condemn you for it. There was nobody to pick 'over 0bama for either term. If someone twisted my arm hard behind my back and 'made' me choose, I'd have gone the same way you did.

. There was nobody to pick 'over 0bama for either term.

LOL.

Romney was too hard on Russia.

Trump is too soft on Russia.

Who will Goldylocks choose next?

LOL ... The only thing 'hard' about Romney was the stuff he moulded his hair with. McCain was at least smart enough to pick Palin as a running mate so people had something tit-alating.

Damnit! I actually wish I had cable for once. Been watching the ads for taboo all month. I've liked Tom hardy since he did mad max fury road.
