When Bush 41 spoke to kids, Dims howled
Personally, I think the president should speak to students in support of
studying and staying in school. What I can't stomach is all the hypocrisy coming from the White House and Congress. For example: http://tinyurl.com/l5zqje |

My guess is that he'll bore em to death. |

Both Bush's and Reagan's speeches were CLEARLY political in nature. That doesn't seem to bother you, but Obama's speech clearly talking about success and succeeding, has you in a twit. |

The reality is that both factions play a constant game of trying to destroy each other while the country goes to hell in a hand basket. Imagine how much greatness can be accomplished if it doesn't matter who gets the credit. |

Until Obama agreed to release his speech and then did so, you had no idea his speech would not be "political" according to your definition but you did not object to any speech he would make before the release, isnt this kinda hypocritical? |

Please tell us what part of parts of Regan, and Bush's speeches were political, be specific, and of course from your own interpretation based on hearing the speeches (which I assume you did based on your accusation), not some google cut and paste, please.

I am very interested in your answer... Or you could just buck up and tell us if you really heard those speeches, or if you are relying on some Pundit's interpretation? That would be the straight up thing to do here, if in fact you didn't hear them. If you really didn't hear the original speeches, some google search for quotes and cuts won't really mean much in the context of you stating plainly that those speeches were political which would lead us to believe you had previous knowledge... -- Wafa free since 2009 |
