People who parody William Shatner's delivery but praise Barack Obama's speaking are either hypocrites or simply not paying attention.

The difference is, Shatner kind of has a clue and he plays up to that personality at times and even mocks himself. Obama has no clue he is an arrogant condescending bastard.

You are absolutely right. John McCain needs to fade into the sunset. I don’t want to reach across the aisle. I don’t want to be the respectful opposition. It is time to get in their faces and give as good as we get. No more backing down. And no more apologies for calling the Dem’s out.

The problem with the president's speech, and it is a very, very big problem, is that to be believed it would require a huge amount of trust in the president. The sort of trust that could only have been earned by a fair accounting of the critics' many and serious objections.

And he still hasn't given us his brilliant plan. The WH actually had the gall to hand out talking points to the press last night instead!

His speech was just an extended rehash of the same vaguely drawn gimmelist we've all heard from him ad nauseum for two months straight now.

He still refuses to specifically articulate what exactly it is we all supposedly have the absolute moral imperative to pass in order to to save us from the doom he says is imminent if we don't pass whatever he can't seem to come right out & say.

If it's so damn important, and we're all gonna die if we don't do whatever it is he thinks we're supposed to do, then why the heck can't he just spit it out & say what specifically needs to be done, for pete's sake?

The only dang thing different between last night's speech & every other time this guy has harangued the nation with yet another grand proclamation announcing yet again his perpetually noncommittal response to a crisis he keeps saying exists, wherein he exhorts everybody else us to immediately do something which even he can't be bothered to decide himself, is that instead of delivering it in a drone, he decided to bark it last night.

Can you imagine if he had been a founding father? Instead of the Declaration of Independence, we'd have had the the "Declaration of I'll Get Back To You With The Details After Everybody Signs It".

So maybe Congress should take his cue & write a Health Care Bill which consists of one word: PRESENT. That does indeed seem to be the sum total of what he's willing to take a stand on, they should give it to him just to get him to shut the heck up.

America to Barky: ENOUGH WITH THE SPEECHES ABOUT NOTHING ALREADY!

LEAVE US ALONE!!!!!

We’re supposed to let these bastards get up there and lie without being called on it out of a “sense of decorum”?

What a rant!

I think Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. was specifically addressing skeptical, questioning non-believers like you when he said this last night (LOL):

Barack: — “But know this: I will not waste time with those who have made the calculation that it’s better politics to kill this plan than to improve it. (Applause.)
I won’t stand by while the special interests use the same old tactics to keep things exactly the way they are. If you misrepresent what’s in this plan, we will call you out. (Applause.)
And I will not — and I will not accept the status quo as a solution. Not this time. Not now.”

Go ahead, Barry, “call us out” -

and while you’re at it,

please explain how you are going to repeal the laws of supply and demand.

Whips?

See what I mean?

What WH plan? Where? When people get up in arms about leaked specifics of the Congressional plan, Dem politicians tell their Town Hallers: not to worry, there is no plan yet. Then the Prez goes on national TV to tell us we have to absolutely positively must pass the plan immediately lest we all wake up dead tomorrow, a plan which they keep telling us doesn't exist. WTF?

Gotta funny story....

I live near a very small town....

One dark early morning last winter...I was going to get coffee, before driving to work. I turned on to the main street in town...and saw a cop coming towards me a few blocks away. I glanced at my speed...I wasn't speeding, and he went past me.

But he whipped a U-turn...and got in right behind me...and "lit" me up.

I stop in a parking lot..I get out, and go to the back of my truck with my wallet in my hand. He has every light on his car on me...He and another cop get out. He say's, "You calling me out"? I said, "What?" He then says, "You getting ready to throw down on me?" I start laughing...I'm standing there in my scrubs with my wallet in my hand. Both my hands are visible...and I can't hardly see him...the lights are so bright. LOL!!

Oh you want to know why he pulled me over...? I had my fog lights on. Yep, I'm a bad man!!

Deputy Fife never even looked at my license.....and let me off with a warning. Ha!!
