2. Let's hope he's not

holding a coffee cup.

[Stellar]

4. I really think he has more to think about than what hand he holds his coffee in...

don't you think?

[unblock]

5. Obama is a brave man . . .

I listen with tears in my eyes every time he speaks, especially today.....

I hope that those who wish to do him harm take into consideration that he would be LARGER in death than in life.....no limit to the monuments, people in mourning, schools, towns and roads renamed after him, not just here, but in the world. Blacks would be insoluable, as would most people of any race. There is no one quite like him. Some share his views but do not have his courage.

I thought about all this stuff when he was speaking. He mentioned the injustices suffered by almost everyone in the world. He was eloquent. I am so proud of him, but just as scared for him. His enemies took no delight in hearing him today.

Whether you agree or disagree with his actions, can you see, as I do, that he is the man we needed for this time in history....

I love him for what he's trying to do and wish with all my heart that he is successful.

6. I agree

But I really disagree with his actions. I'm not sure at all what he's trying to do, but I have a pretty good idea of what's going to happen, regardless of intentions or statements of intent.

7. That's my fear - intentions

might be good, and I did not agree with the bombing at all, made me so sad, but I am glad that he's getting some countries with him and he so well knows the causes of problems of all the people in the world, and mentioned them in his speech...which was eloquent and brave.....

I am so shocked that hardly anyone has commented on it, or is just too angry with him to have listened to the speech at all.

If Dems aren't with him in spirit, if not in actions, here in DU, his cause is hopeless.

And ISIS just chopped off the head of an Frenchman - France has dropped some bombs in Iraq, but refused to bomb Syria...now what will they do I wonder...

8. Obama: "The only language understood by killers like this is the language of force"
