That was one of the more interesting SOTU addresses I’ve seen. Personally, I think he said most of the things that needed to be said, and he said them reasonably well. I’m sure he’s going to get some flack for attacking Trump directly (though not by name), but I was frankly glad to see it. Doing otherwise makes it seem like it’s just your typical election/political disagreements, but we’re past that now.
Agreed, he seemed on top of it the whole time, including while responding to the heckles. A few times he flubbed up his words a bit, but that’s been true forever. He’s not the orator Obama is, but it was and excellent speech.
Right? Dude -overcame- a speech impediment ffs.
Speech impediment + talking way too fast, but he recognized the problem in speaking slowly.
No one is, and that’s just the truth. Obama will probably go down as the most effective public speaker we’ll see in our lifetime.
Also a truth is that everyone flubs the occasional word. You and I do it every day. Specially when stressed or tired.
Theres a stark difference between flubbing a word, and struggling to make a coherent statement.
Yeah 100% agree. Like I said, it was a good speech effectively delivered. All these chucklefucks that jump up and down every time he flubs a word are just ridiculous. And they’re complete hypocrites of they use that as a reason to vote for Trump instead - the guy who consistently refers to the wrong president and says complete nonsense every single day.
Saruman might be a close second…
Well, that and drone striking weddings.
Drone striking weddings is easier when you can talk your way out of the consequences
