Damned fine speech....

I'm honestly asking - why?

TIA,

and, this time, I can't bash you for nitpicking. It was a decent,
politically targeted, Presidential speech. As one who worked to get Obama
elected, and is overall well pleased by his early performance, I still am a
bit uneasy with the 'swoon' level generated by some who support him and the
Democratic Party. I'm sort of made to think of the line by Mr.Wolf in 'Pulp
Fiction' in which he admonishes the two hit men about getting too
self-congratulatory. There, it's funny, but this sort of gushing over
routine speeches and such elevates both the public expectations and the odor
of bull**** to dangerous levels, IMO. Good speech, well delivered. Great?
One to be given a cute Pet Name in the history books? Get a grip, and leave
history to be written with the clarity of distance.
