Without going through every page of this thread, I'm sure that someone has already agreed with this, but yes, I agree with you Barb. I think that the only thing that Obama was doing with this speech is absolutely affirm he is learning how to be a consummate politician.
As a politician in his current position, the stance that he took with this speech is really the only one that he could have with out completely alienating
everyone. He rode the fence, and personally, I don't fault him for that. That is after all what politicians do if they have any hope of making it.
Which is why nothing much that comes out of
any politicians mouth means anything to me.
