Thank you, President Obama...
...your speech today was the one I've been waiting for you to deliver. And it came at precisely the right time. Speeches, words from the great and good, do make a difference, I believe. I think this one just might help us all clarify certain matters just a little more, and move our national dialogue just a bit towards sanity. If so, then it--and you--will have done your jobs.
