1. cnn had 3 ME 'experts' on this a.m. and they ALL thought the
speech was great. So m$m can stuff it.

btw, so did I, and most every article I've seen so far agrees.

2. True. I saw it on MSNBC so I edited my OP to reflect that...
CNN has been doing a great job.

4. what the various group leaders thought is irrelevant. it is about the POPULATIONS in those countries
President Obama is talking directly to people--not letting them be told what to think by their various factional leaders. The Iranian people were tuning in like crazy to this speech. As in Syria and elsewhere.

Did you know 2/3 of the Iranian population is under 30? That is who Obama was talking to. Not some old crusty "supreme leader" or the members of Likud.

5. I loved how Andrea Mitchell puffed up Liz Cheney's credential in this area
She was really stretching it to make it sound like she was a thoroughly appropriate source for criticism on a speech covering Middle East issues. My jaw dropped open, and then I changed channel.
