Obamas address was very good

You guys already know I'm not happy with Obama for a lot of reasons. I've always acknowledged, however, that he is a very good speaker.... even if I don't agree with much of what he's done. I applaud this speech. I think he said exactly what needed to be said. It was honest and he seemed genuinely disgusted. Did he con me? again? I don't even care. I care that he said what we really should be hearing from him.

there are probably some members choking that I posted something positive about Obama. .but, in this case, I think he did alright. I will never again buy into the repub/dem drama, been there, done that, and most of both parties currently in congress should be gone.. with a few exceptions, grayson, sanders, warren.
