If you were watching the speech on CBS, you saw an amazing display of institutional obfuscation.
The speech was over.

They talked in platitudes.

They eavesdropped as he walked out and shook hands.

And Then They Went To The "BOO!!" Script.

A terror plot.

Unsubstantiated.

9/11

Pakistan

Then a platitude

Then interviews with Cantor and Boner.

Then the repubican rebuttal.











The citrus mambo was the wankie wanker. Ledo's was the giveaway.

7. My husband's a big Pat & Vanna fan
He believes he will one day win the Prize Puzzle. It's weird but he puts up with my political obsession and I put up with Pat and Vanna. Peace in the family and all that.

6. I thought Obama's speech was truly great.
Now Obama needs to take the bully pit and hammer tonight's message over and over again, until it hits home with every American that this is what we want to do and what we need to do to save our people and our country.

A+ on the speech.

Also Obama must not cave into republicans in developing the ideas he brought forward tonight. Please let his not be just another pretty speech.
