Yep, Reagan was real good. He could have been uplifting on the Titanic.

Second is that the cutting engines on a plane metaphor was as very poorly delivered. Lame, in fact. Hit a klinker there.

Third, he has the cajones to say what needs to be said to the rich mofos and made it clear he want to work CONSTRUCTIVELY with the budget hawks in the congress. He comes across as smarter than the vast majority of his opponents, made it clear he will be a formidable adversary if crossed.

This what leadership looks like from somone who cares for America more than lobbyists. Good for him. If he keeps this up, I will be proud to vote for him in 2012.
I couldn't agree more.

I also found it funny that there wasn't much applause when he said he thought that house and senate members should---in the interest of transparency---post online every time they have a meeting with a lobbyist like the White House has done.

Where is the jobs that this clown says is being created? This pos had 2 years to focus on the number 1 thingg in peoples minds and now jobless public, and what did he do? NOTHING. eXCEPT PUSH HIS OFF THE WALL LOONEY LEFT SOCIALISTIC AGENDA. He had more double talk in this speech then most of his. And people think he said what they wanted to hear. Is the public really stupid enough to believe he cares abbout them all of a sudden?

Hypocrisy or plain jealousy. Probably both.

I would rather see him sitting there then psycho lady Pelosi.


Amen, Amen, Amen, thank you Lord!
