That was the singularly best teevee performance of Obama's presidency

[Stinky The Clown]

He made *me* feel better.

That's what a leader does.

I hope to hell he keeps it up and stops this secretive, back door shit.

[Palmer Eldritch]

1. That speech is winning him reelection.

Boom.

[tridim]

2. And guaranteeing a GOP loss.

[Stinky The Clown]

3. His reelection has never been in danger

But I agree with you.

"Boom."

[Palmer Eldritch]

5. We agree on that, too.

[WillyT]

8. Only If He Continues To Pound Them... That's What They Mean By The Bully-Pulpit !!!

Pin it ALL on the Republicans. And don't let ANYBODY forget. Make 'em cry "Uncle".

:shrug:

[Palmer Eldritch]

10. That's what Boehner was mumbling as he crawled out of the White House

[FarLeftFist]

4. The GOPs single-mindedness just guaranteed that Obama will waltz his way to a 2nd term n/t

[Parker CA]

6. He owed that mic and blasted every aspect of the GOP obstruction that has been working against him.

Just a perfect reaction to the drunken fool Boner.

Bill Press just said that he's at the WH every day and he's never seen Obama this angry, blunt, and on target with his comments.

"If you want to be a leader, you have to lead!"

[Ruby the Liberal]

7. Leaders gotta lead. It was a brilliant talk. Right message, right tone.

[NightWatcher]

9. I hope he continues to be pissed and nail the shit out of them.

[Kahuna]

11. For ONCE I must agree with you.

:patriot:

[kentuck]

12. I agree.

He showed courage and a bit of anger. He was blunt and honest and did not pull any punches. The ball is now in the Republicans court.

[a kennedy]

21. Agree kentuck, but he's done this all along....and not many

wanted to "hear" him...... GOBAMA, GOBAMA, GOBAMA...... 2012. :applause: :patriot: I've always listened to what he's said, not to ALL TALKING HEADS.... gobama, gobama, gobama.

[fredamae]

13. I am Happy to say I Must Apologize To The President

and I'm So Fkn Happy to make that call first thing tomorrow morning :) That was Honest--it was "just wow"! He made *me* feel better too.

[AsahinaKimi]

14. I totally agree!

100%

[erpowers]

15. Yes

I was just thinking President Obama was finally fighting the Republicans and calling them out.

[seabeyond]

16. video.... i want to see. nt

[murielm99]

18. Me too. I was not here. I was busy and I just got home.

I need to see for myself. Link?

[seabeyond]

27. it is in political video, now. nt

[murielm99]

34. I finally saw it.

Let's hope he lives up to what he said.

The nerve of Boner, not returning his phone call and walking out. Shame on those repubbie congressmen, thinking they can disrespect the President.

I hope he stands firm, and their despicable behavior comes back to bite them in their butts.

[RKP5637]

17. That is "exactly" what he needs to do, use the power of leverage by "we the people, " the

75%-80% that agree!!!

[Sparkly]

19. Coming from Stinky, that's quite something.

:)

[Lorien]

20. yeah, just like he did for the Public Option and the Bush Tax cuts

says a few pretty words and the people swoon, then he drives a knife into our backs.

[cliffordu]

33. Christ. Will you EVER say anything worth a shit?

[wiggs]

22. Are you referring to the Maryland town hall or is there something more recent? nt

[jwirr]

23. Okay, I have been busy so did not hear most of it. Does this mean

that I can quit worrying about my social security check in August?

[Mimosa]

24. AMEN! n/t

[EFerrari]

25. I don't recall him having a problem giving speeches. n/

[Blue_In_AK]

29. Nor I.

Actions apeak louder than words.

[Scurrilous]

26. Recc.

:thumbsup:

[Stinky The Clown]

28. One "c"

[readmoreoften]

30. Wow, another one of his magic speeches. Good thing I only pay attention to what he does.

Not the rainbow glitter that pours from his mouth.

[elleng]

31. Sure was. Was pretty good in College Park today, too.

:hi:

[cliffordu]

32. Keerist, Stinky - Sorry I missed it. It MUST have been exceptional.

:hi:

(unless of course you missed your sarcasm smiley....)
