Fox News host Greta Van Susteren expressed dismay Sunday over President Barack Obama’s performance at a Friday press conference, calling it “pathetic.”

“You just want to slit your throat almost, because it was so depressing,” she declared.

Van Susteren visited ABC’s “This Week” to comment on the White House’s latest Obamacare rule change released earlier this week. But what started as a conversation on the healthcare law’s prospects soon turned into an attack on Obama’s messaging.

“The president’s most powerful weapon as president is his ability to inspire — that’s his greatest strength,” Van Susteren began. “And then he comes out last Friday in the press conference. He was depressing, he was pathetic, he sucked the oxygen out of the room. The media beat up on him, the media had bad questions, they kept punching him. I mean, he ends the year where you just want to slit your throat almost, because it was so depressing. He’s completely lost his ability to inspire.”
