3. Haven't heard the speech, but I voted F because actions speak louder than words. Obama's words are

meaningless now that he's thrust us headfirst back into the shithole of war in the middle east.

I'll hand it to him that he gives great speeches. But they're just speeches. He's still part of the Wall St. oil money machine.

You didn't hear the speech, but you rate the speech as an F. Marvelous.

I'm overwhelmed with your ability.

They were once rousing. Unfortunately the quality of his oratory has never matched his actions.

I'm sure it sounded good, though. Like he always does.
