^^^^^ REAL TALK ^^^^^
Wow, I just saw the entire video of the President, OUR PRESIDENT , standing in front of a room full of Republican politicians and absolutely, yet respectfully and eliquently, schooling them on how badly their political behavior has become. He hit them square in the face with the absolute truth and they know it!

This has to be unprecidented. Never in my lifetime have I ever witnessed such open, honest, respectful, and direct leadership from a President.

For him to deliver what can be best described as a sad reality .... face to face, opposed to some media outlet or 2nd hand through a memo was amazing to watch.

Regardless of what people say, I am extrememely pleased with, and proud of, President Obama thus far. To navigate the catastrophic waters in the manner that he has done in his first year (considering what he was stepping into), I can honestly say .... I don't know of another human being on the planet that could have done it.

Thank you and God Bless you President Obama!

2. The news commenters were all atwitter -- and said what you did. They'd never
seen anything like it before!

And look for The Guardian article that's posted here. It's not just US that are interpreting it this way. The spanking could be heard across the ocean! :patriot:

3. I hope he gets somewhere, but I fear what he's dealing with is not
politics but big bucks in high places that are calling the shots and are not patriotic in the least. Their interest in politics is only to manipulate our legislative system for their benefit and they have found a means to do so through the Republican Party.
