Ain't he dead?

Yep. Dusted in the Firm. Grisham's a sadistic bastage.

He just can't bring it like Billy could. The words are fine but I ain't feeling it.

Billy C was in a class by himself.

I have to say, I have never understood these mass public memorials after this or OKC bombing. Even the one at 9/11 was in a way contrived.

You bet.

Somewhere the UA mascot is about to bust out on stage...

 

[volinbham]

He's stretching this one out. He's acting like someone asked him a simple question in a townhall meeting.

Nice touch on living up to the 9 year old's imagination of what the country can be.

I thought that was weak actually but clearly the crowd is digging.

I think he could have ended before that.

Agree he went on too long, but disagree on the other. Thought that was solid.

 

[volinbham]

Not a bad job - long but stayed away from the partisanship

 

[bam15]

Obama cheers?

And now the UA prez?

Don't ruin it!

I thought he did a solid job. Concentrated on the people that lost their lives and didn't concentrate on the political side.

Solid speech at a tough time.

 

[lawgator1]

Don't get applauding the prez like this.

Didn't need it. Overblown coverage has made it part and parcel to the whole affair.

I give him a B. Could have been a B+ if it was 5 minutes shorter.

 

[lawgator1]

This song also too much like a Christmas Carol. Sorry.

Plus every level headed pundit on either side of the aisle suggested he avoid it and by avoiding it he could bolster his public standing - a no brainer but he hasn't always done the smart thing.

Lefty loons that believe the right wing is responsible still will. Righty loons will parse his words to find hidden shots and the rest of us will be left with rain puddles in heaven

Solid speech by Obama; yet the crowd reaction made the whole thing seem ridiculous.

Hoping tomorrow drive time Beck gives Obama and the service a thumbs up. That would be a step forward.

Better start working on my survival seeds and MREs.

I'd agree with you again, but I live in Orlando and am forced to roll my eyes at anyone with an Orlando Tragic avatar.
