Wow! MASTERFUL speech Obama is giving!

One of the best EVER!

He makes me proud to be a supporter!

What's new?

Don't you guys get tired of the same crap over and over again from Obama?

Good one.

Speaking of empty rhetoric, maybe you should look at your own self.

Perhaps you felt his high praise of HRC was empty and full of pie in the sky rhetoric as well?

My support is wavering! :grr:

n/t

:shrug:

"This poster is no longer with us. And neither are his three other accounts". :headbang:

nevermind - figured it out.

I mean, I know Obama likes to do it and all, but here, nah.

That's what I love about many Obama supporters here, say something they disagree with, they call you a repuke. Keep it up, they call you a racist.

gotta love that Hope!

More of the same from Obama.

then there isn't much to discuss, now is there? :shrug:

about that?

she didn't exactly ask for cash...I suppose that is different.

More Hillary?

"But he's so boooooring...."

and prevaricating about the popular vote, and complaining about sexism? Or do you find that inspiring.

sheesh. Bitter any?

Republicans RULE! Whoo whoo whoo!

Buzz off LOSER!!!

turncoat, just cause you ended up on the losing side and made a FOOL out of yourself try not to be so BITTER! :silly:

Call the WAAAAAAAHMBULANCE.

Nothing new.

I want someone to represent me for once.

He gets a free prime time nationwide TV address, and he makes himself sound like the nominee without explicitly saying so.

is making; he's not just talking "hope and dreams"
Keep going. Bring on McSame. GoBama's ready. He's taking on the issues right now.

I make no judgment because I'm on a pledge, but here's the text.

And I ENCOURAGE people to compare it to Teddy's 1980 convention speech.

http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/tedkennedy1980dnc.htm

...Many of you have been disappointed by politics and politicians more times than you can count. You’ve seen promises broken and good ideas drown in the sea of influence, and point-scoring, and petty bickering that has consumed Washington. And you’ve been told over and over and over again to be cynical, and doubtful, and even fearful about the possibility that things can ever be different.

And yet, in spite of all the doubt and disappointment – or perhaps because of it – you came out on a cold winter’s night in numbers that this country has never seen, and you stood for change. And because you did, a few more stood up. And then a few thousand stood up. And then a few million stood up. And tonight, in the fullness of spring, with the help of those who stood up from Portland to Louisville, we have returned to Iowa with a majority of delegates elected by the American people, and you have put us within reach of the Democratic nomination for President of the United States.

The road here has been long, and that is partly because we’ve traveled it with one of the most formidable candidates to ever run for this office. In her thirty-five years of public service, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton has never given up on her fight for the American people, and tonight I congratulate her on her victory in Kentucky. We have had our disagreements during this campaign, but we all admire her courage, her commitment and her perseverance. No matter how this primary ends, Senator Clinton has shattered myths and broken barriers and changed the America in which my daughters and yours will come of age.

Some may see the millions upon millions of votes cast for each of us as evidence that our party is divided, but I see it as proof that we have never been more energized and united in our desire to take this country in a new direction. More than anything, we need this unity and this energy in the months to come, because while our primary has been long and hard-fought, the hardest and most important part of our journey still lies ahead....

Did I say that right?

notice.

:applause:

Can't wait.

.

I've said it before. Obama virtually sings his speeches, and the effect, on top of the words, really fires up the crowd!

Hillary hollers her speeches, and the effect is like nails on a chalkboard.

Surprisingly, the root word of asinine is NOT "ass."

Sometimes I really do wonder what the "well-educated" Obamatrons learned in all those years of study. Perhaps the English language was just an elective. Perhaps you all made it up in post-structuralist "Theory," basket-weaving, and web design. Well, a credit's a credit I guess. :shrug:
