Being a veteran and a red-blooded American, I liked the idea of finding jobs for veterans. I’m also a “buy American” supporter, so that was a decent part of the speech.

It was a "speech". Obama gave it. So it was filled with lies.

I cannot stomach listening to him or watching him on TV. All I know about the speech I read on Free Republic.

The principle issue is that Obama demanded that Congress pass his bill, but there isn't any bill. Has the MSM picked up on this?

Some writers have, but I’ve seen nothing on Fox tonight. Bill O’Reilly absolutely bumfuzzled Presidential Press Secty Carney tonight. That was funny, but no mention that the bill doesn’t yet exist.

If you’ve ever heard clothesline preaching, that’s what Obama did tonight. He had intro, body, weak conclusion. The body was points 1-25 soundbites about each item on the clothesline from teachers to bridges....one of which is the I-75 bridge across the Ohio River here where I live. (He had the Cincy mayor at the speech.)

That bridge is the furthest thing from “shovel ready” that I could ever imagine. The only ones he could hire would be the engineers that begin the study of how to change I-75 to redesign an outdated, clogged bridge. How long do engineers need for that kind of stuff? Years and years.

We’ll be using those shovels to bury people waiting for that “shovel ready” to come on line.
