Anything is palatable if you place enough real whipped cream over it. That is today's politics. That being said... I enjoyed the speeches. I enjoy listening to a standing President who speaks English, and doesn't make up their own words. I felt as though I was at a pep rally and the speakers were hoping to motivate those who listened. I am much aware that the President is the person who signs the bills into law. Its those other people both men and women that represents their states that make up bill, argue their validity, and spend tons of money, trying to get others to agree with them and their policies. It bothers me when spending cuts are mentioned and the big two are always mentioned. Social Security and HealthCare. Keep in mind, those who are promoting spending cuts are wealthy enough NOT to be affected by those spending cuts. And yet they make the decisions for all of us. I want those people who represent us to have exposure to the very same benefits as we do. No more... No less. Granted, its only a dream and I can wish.......

Well, Eric... So whatd'ya think? Good, Bad, Impartial? Left, Right, Centrist? Too much, too little, not enough? (almost an hour) Me... I'm primarily curious in knowing just how many folks really watched the whole thing, and/or the Republican rebuttal, and/or perhaps the Bachman/Tea Party response/rebuttal (if it was aired on your station). And, of those who watched, what did they hear in that which was said? I'm very often dismayed at how much arguing about politics happens when it's compared to how much people actually watch, and more importantly pay attention to all sides of an issue, when our officials are working in Congress or speaking to the media live (not edited soundbites for/from pundits). I'm glad at least two of us decided to hear what Mr. Prez had to say. Good Deal, my man!
