INFOGRAPHIC: Obama’s Press Conference In 5,673 Words and One Chart
President Obama hosted a rare opportunity for press to ask him questions. The President is known for his long, rambling responses — often never actually answering the questions he’s asked.
Obama was asked 6 questions and spoke 5,673 words, over 1,100 of which on a single question asking him to respond to top Democrat and ObamaCare architect Max Baucus calling his signature legislative achievment a “trainwreck.” Obama never did directly address questions about ObamaCare’s disastrous implementation.
Notably, after being asked about his administration’s failure to give an explanation on Benghazi, the infamously long-winded Obama spoke only 96 words before changing the subject.
Will we ever get a straight answer from the President?
