Another Astonishingly Boring and Cliched "Major Address"
The Lincoln Memorial | 8/28/2013 | Some Speechwriter

Posted on 08/28/2013 12:33:07 PM PDT by JennysCool

Just tuned in to hear the same boring singsong rhythms and completely trite speechifying we're used to, whether Obama's at the Lincoln Memorial or a high school gym.

What I wasn't prepared for was how tepid the applause was.

Seems like a bigtime fail. Comments?

Did they really call it that again?

You’d think Hussein’s legions of sycophants in the media would have given up on that a long time ago.

i have a dream... and it has nothing to do with welfare, food stamps, communism or marxist redistribution

which means it’s the opposite dream from 0bama and the progressives

It’s bad for the circuitry; TVs with his image cease to operate because of the holes that suddenly appear in them. I just can’t afford a new TV every time he’s on one.

I solved that problem with a series of mirrors. I keep spares in the garage. My wife hates the sandbags in the house, however.

I agree. Obama speaks in an annoying, clipped monotone that drives me up the wall, when I did listen to him. I have the same reaction whenever Hillary Clinton opens her yap.

I had it muted, but I looked up a couple of times to see The Prince in his favorite Benito Mussolini, chin-out-looking-down-his-nose pose. All he needed to do was fold his arms and rcok back and forth on his heels a little bit.....and he would have Il Duce nailed.

Major Address.

Is that anything like Major Major, in Catch 22?

Who evolved to Major Major Major, then Major Major Major Major.

Major Address —> Major Major Address, etc.

He couldn’t even get the paid supporters to clap.

It kind of reminded me of the reaction usually afforded to early afternoon speakers at political conventions.

And now for something American.

Today Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander gave $1 million to Wins for Warriors, a new charity for vets based in Detroit, Norfolk, and Richmond.

I have never heard him speak for longer than it takes me to mute or change channels. I read what he say sometimes but I will not listen to an outright liar, criminal, and traitor.
