heard earlier on FNC that this is going to be a longer than normal speech (based on normal speeches at the UN) - approximately 45 minutes.

Two questions:

  1. At what point will he loop back to the beginning and start over to fill the time?
  2. Will anybody notice when he does?

I don’t know why they don’t laugh him off the podium.

See #26.

Americans riot in some communities just because their sports team won. It isn’t a sign of “a divided America”. It’s a sign of an anarchistic subculture within our borders that is encouraged by certain destabilizing groups.

should read
This is what you all will hear:

Drudge / Week;y Standard

http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/obama-brings-ferguson-un_806086.html

“I realize that America’s critics will be quick to point out that at times we too have failed to live up to our ideals; that America has plenty of problems within our own borders. This is true,” Obama will say, according to prepared text of his address.

“In a summer marked by instability in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, I know the world also took notice of the small American city of Ferguson, Missouri – where a young man was killed, and a community was divided. So yes, we have our own racial and ethnic tensions. And like every country, we continually wrestle with how to reconcile the vast changes wrought by globalization and greater diversity with the traditions that we hold dear.”

They’ll listen to anything as long as he gives them some Global Warming Money

I don't think they even laughed Nelson Mandela's pal Momar Gaddafi off the podium.

He brought Ferguson in?

I’m appalled.

CNN’s Christiana Amanpour came on the air looking like the cat that had just eaten the canary.

A sure sign that Hussein’s speech was a disaster for America and Israel.

It makes it all more “MEANINGFUL” and “RELEVANT”

You must not have much game. This speech is laughable...at best!

It will be panned by all networks with the possible exception of CNN...and I wouldn’t even bet on that...

“He sounds good. But what the hell is he saying?”

IMHO his campaign speeches were like that - lots of abstract and people (e.g., “his” people and LIVs) could take his words to mean whatever they wanted them to mean.

It was a Kum Ba Yah speech. That's his game. He started out a little edgy and then tried to end up with everyone holding hands and singing We Are The World. It was like one of his campaign speeches. I have a dream. And on and on...

I'm guessing those arabs sitting there listening to him talk about world peace and christians, jews, and arabs living like brothers in a utopia .... well they disliked his speech as much as we do.

The Bolton fiction comment is good.

My observation: His speeches used to generate a lot of play-by-play and after-analysis comment here on FR. Not much action on this one, even though it was pretty long. A big yawn.

You gotta’ admit that 0 has shown to the world he can fight more than two wars at the same time.

A War on radical Islam (the adjective which truly defines Islam)

A War on (radical) Global Warming deniers.

A War on (radical) white policemen.

A War on (radical) people of Israel fighting for survival.

A War on (radical) white racists. (defined as if you are white, you are one)

He pronounced the word “scrutiny” this way:

“suh-cah-root-iny”

I’ll bet TOTUS spelled it correctly.
