I tuned in late but Obama's speech was beautiful! If I could be inspired by a politician this

[saracat]

speech would do it. Beautifully written an delivered.

1. thank you Saracat

been a long year huh?

:hug:

[saracat]

2. The worst I can remember! Thank you.

[karynnj]

10. Worst than

2000 when Bush was selected?

2001 with 911 and the country became paranoid?

2003 when Bush ordered an invasion of Iraq?

2004 when the media allowed lies against an American patriot, who even then would have won had there been a fair election in Ohio - with adequate voting machines?

That's 4 in just this new century.


All of these were far more awful than your favorite (and second favorite) candidate not winning the nomination. This year has been incredible as all the Republican lies backfired.

3. It might not go down in history

But it was what was needed at this point in time. I thought it was fantastic!

[saracat]

4. Why not? It was a great speech!

[Shiver]

5. I agree, it was a great speech

But the ones that are remembered, mostly, are the ones single lines can be taken from, soundbites that can sum up the entirety of the speech. The difference with this one is that the entirety of the speech is greater than any single soundbite that can be taken from it.

That said, let me be wrong ;)

6. Then why are you saying such nasty things about him on that idiotic other forum?

8. Are you her stalker or something? Why drag that here?

[Lilith Velkor]

17. To punish her for being conciliatory, of course.

That's always the proper course of action when somebody comes around: hurl insults, fling feces, and generally act like a sore winner.

[FrenchieCat]

9. That's quite sad.

[saracat]

14. No .That is a perspective. This is sad.

[saracat]

12. It isn't nasty. It is a perpective and I simply" asked" who was watching!

Turns out I did watch and thought the speech was excellent.And I stand by my perspective that a lot is about 2012. So what?

[K Gardner]

15. Ewww!! WTH is that... Dems who hate Obama Forum or something? I need to go wash. n/t

[mtnsnake]

16. Pretty sad, isn't it

Ewwww is right!

[EFerrari]

7. I'm glad you enjoyed that, saracat. I was too nervous to really listen.

Will have to replay it when things are more quiet.

[karynnj]

11. You were inspired by "a politican" - just not Obama usually

Are you saying that Edwards, either Clinton are not politicians?

[saracat]

13. All of them are "politicians" And I have a different view of them.
