The Down Side of President Obama

Now that we have a President who is smart, articulate, and has the best interests of the country in mind, I feel compelled to actually watch his major speeches, like last night’s not-really-the-State-of-the-Union address.

It’s a small price to pay for having a President who speaks to the nation as if we were rational adults, but it does cut into my ability to do other things.

Anyway, consider this an Open Thread for commentary about the speech, in the unlikely event that you don’t feel you have any other place to talk about it.
