Well, you do have to admit that Obama reads well in public. I can see how people can get sucked in to the rhetoric.
Much of what he promises we’ll just have to wait and see if it comes anywhere close to developing. Some of what he had to say is just plain hypocrisy. Three or four times he mentioned having inherited a $1.3 trillion dollar deficit. (Did you notice how the democrats cheered when he did that?) Maybe no one told him that a good portion of that number developed the two years before he took office, when we had a democrat Congress. Or how about the fact that he piled on another trillion within his first 30 days in office!
I found the speech disappointing at best.
