The "Speech"?

For some reason I don't really feel saved. Obama's speech is arrogant and, as usual, divisive. Karl Rove put it right in his "Twelve Words that Di scribe Obama's Speech": Presumptuous, Tired, Small,Mind-Boggling, Slippery, Misleading, Arrogant, Self-Centered, Unnecessary, Completely-Political, Hyper-partisan and Misguided.

Why would Obama make such a big deal out of this plan and leave out the important half of the speech - where the money comes from. It's obvious that he doesn't know. He's expecting the "Super-Committee" to dig it up for him by castrating the military, robbing Social Security and Medicare (again), then in the end, "Discovering" that the cost estimates were way off target and need an emergency rise in the debt ceiling of another Trillion or two to cover the cost.

Sometimes I get the impression of a bunch of chimps sitting around a table in White House Cabinet Room with lap tops pounding away erratically and Obama standing behind them looking to see if anything "intelligent" pops up on their screens. (Head Chimp : Jay Carney)
