In reply to the discussion: Obama is giving the speech liberals have begged him to give for four years. [View all]adieu
(1,009 posts)59. Yes, I understand
Perhaps I was looking for more into the speech. I know that in the first four years, Obama basically ignored any penalties or enforcement of laws on the financial sector, as well as the previous administration's flouting of international laws and unjustified aggression, as well as that administration's encroachment into our personal civil liberties.
He made little mention about those at today's speech.

In other words, you couldn't answer my question so you resort to lame insults.

All you did was take the opportunity to condescend. Another poster managed to answer me

Oh, please. You posted personally to me in the same message, don't know why you'd deny it.
