President Obama has released his first TV ad of the 2012 campaign.

And it ends with this familiar tagline:

President Obama: I'm Barack Obama, and I approve this message.

Sounds kinda like what he said in this ad four years ago:

Obama: I'm Barack Obama, and I approve this message.

In fact... It sounds exactly like what he said four years ago.

I guess he's a busy guy, but it does make you wonder if he really approved the message.

What was that? Zero substance to this segment... clearly you're only trying to mock the president, but this?
Really lame man; sounds like Fox news...

Ummmm... what does this have to do with anything? This is not news nor frankly is it really "cute." This was a waste of air space. Report the news please.

You showed your hand with your concluding comments on "Morning Report" today (1/19/12). Your reaction to the Obama's tag-line was of no news value; it was obviously included as a partisan critique of the president. Way to raise the level of public discourse on the "issues."
