Yep by the end of the speech we will once again be reminded that everything is Bush's fault and he is here to save the day on all fronts.Sure does inspire a rumrunner for me.

Yes, I’m grateful that the pathetic poseur is done, for now. Even the teleprompter was bored. What a disgrace.

Maybe it’s just me, but I could swear the camera keeps catching cadets dozing off.

He says we're not as innocent as we were during the time of Roosevelt.
What the hell is that supposed to mean?

Thanky you, thanky you for your sporadic applause.
Not exactly a happy crowd, but what you would expect
from the thin gray line.
Obama wasn’t talking to them of course, I can’t wait
to see the reaction from his “base”.
It will be interesting to see Cpink twist itself into
a pretzel over this.

I’m a bit upset with the applause he got. Not everyone applauded and it only happened 3 times during the lecture but nevertheless I enjoyed watching him get nervous when his punchlines were getting no reactions prompting him to start smacking his hand on the podium.
To: mystery-ak
“the cadets are tired and probably have studying to do..instead they are ordered to listen to this crap”
wonder if they were ordered to applause to an applause sign?
To: relee
Yeah it was on Becks show tonight. The range was 40,000 to 60,000 troops. Of course the media said 40,000 only.

Obama is not supporting our troops.He was asked for 48 K minimum. 60 k was optimum.He gives 30K.
This simply is a designed creation of a war of attrition.
Obama is an evil , evil man.

I would bet that there is no one in the WH speechwriting staff who have any kind warm thoughts for military troops or actions. The person who drew the short straw had to write tonight’s speech.
