State of the Union Speech

After watching the SOTU speech, I didn't want to make a decision about it, so I watched it a second time. I'm sorry to say, there were 2 times each times that I watched that I lost it. Both the first time and the second time I watched it. First, watching the President hug and talk to Gabby made me lose it. And that probably happened to a lot of people on both sides of the aisle. But the second time, when the President talked about Osama Bin-Laden being dead, that came as complete surprise to me. And they happened both live and when I watched the tape. So now, looking at the speech, I'm sorry to say, the President may not have may anyone on the fringes happy. Far left, I'm sure he didn't go far enough for you. Tea Party righties, I'm sure you still think he's an Islamic extremist that doesn't deserve to be or legally the President. So nothing he said will ever change your mind. But for those of us in the middle, the speech was a solid A-. I take points away for his milk joke. But for the GOP response, all I can say is, to listen to Mitch Daniels and have it make sense, I have to be drinking with a cousin of his, Jack.
