6. I hate to be negative but this is theater.
Obama gave a good speech but it was just that, a speech.

We are in deep trouble. Deep, deep trouble.

7. Yep. Some of politics is theater. It's a viable part of it all, though.

8. There is a difference, I think, between the kind of exposure
that all politicians need to be known and this.

This is theater in place of statesmanship. This is media whoring in place of governing.

I don't especially blame Obama. He's just part of our landscape.
