    Almost like dog years.

    That's one reason Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann opposed Hillary--they said they didn't want to watch a woman age in the Oval Office.

    But I don't like what I heard about the crowd's behavior. It reflects poorly on their parents for not teaching them what's appropriate and inappropriate.
    I know! That really irked me. Were those college kids or something?

    Most of them were as it as held at the University of Arizona...which tells you all you need to know about their maturity level. I should know - I work for a major university here in Pittsburgh (not Pitt).

    Any chance you can get me a job as a professor of religion/ANE culture? That way, I can go watch the steelers games as well.

    I'm really inclined to give the administration a pass on that one. They have people who specialize in doing rallies, and I think they just reverted to type under stress.
    But the students should really have known better. The family of the victims were right there in the audience, and I think Obama truly wanted it to be about them.
    If it was my daughter who had been murdered, I don't think I could've sat through that.

    You know, that is a very good point. I didn't watch the speech, nor have I read it. However, I do not carry any animus towards our president, and am glad to hear people stating that this was a very straight forward speech.

    I admired him for it; far and few things to tip my hat in his direction.

    That too, would be my sentiments.

    I admired him for allowing the US Navy Seals to take care of the Pirates the way they should be taken care of-- I admired him for reversing course on Iraq, which he did (for a time-until, If I remember right, the military said it was time), and I admired him for another stand he took (late now, can't remember), but he basically took a Reaganesque stand against a country on something which I admired him for.

    Can't really say much else in his two years of "leadership" so far.

    Really? That's pretty weak on their part.
