Any reviews on Obama's D-Day speech??????????????

[SamCooke]

I missed it. I know it wasn't as powerful as his memorial day speech. Or was it?

[SamCooke]

1. no reviews?????????

2. I'm watching it again. It was powerful.

3. Everyone loved it except the lunatic fringe of the right wing

Senator Inhoffe in particular who said it was unAmerican and he wondered whose side Obama was on.

4. Really? I know Inhoffe didn't like the Cairo speech

but he didn't like the D-Day one either? Damn.

8. Obama talked about "extremists" so Inhoffe thought Obama was

referring to him. lol

7. They have their talking points

and they're sticking to them. I can tell him that President Obama is not on the side of Greedy, Obfuscatin' Polluters.

5. My objection is he didn't even mention ___________!

How dare he!;)

6. I only caught the last part. It was good. All his speeches were good. But not

ground breaking or awesome.

It was a commemorative speech, not a speech meant to set up a policy or inspiration path, like the Cairo speech. The other leaders there also gave speeches.

9. It was appropriately subdued. Some will call that "weak" or something.

But he was the "junior" among this group of world leaders.

And it was not "his" day or "his" speech.

Appropriately, it was subdued, he didn't outshine the others and he didn't try to "score major points".

Which makes it pitch perfect, IMO.

:patriot:

[Thrill]

10. It was great. Even Pat Buchanan liked it

[jillan]

12. No way! I'm ready to faint!

[jillan]

11. on at this very moment on Cspan.

[elleng]

13. Is Sarkozy's available?

Heard a bit of it on car radio; sounded quite good.

[jillan]

14. yeah - he was on before Obama.

I bet cspan will play it again thru out the nite.
