why not just cancel the pointless speech and let the MSM go straight to praising Obama? they already have their scripts and talking points.
It’s amazing to me that this whole business about when to schedule the speech has gotten this much attention. And it could overshadow whatever he says.
And suppose he runs long with this speech, and cuts into the football game? Suppose he runs long and cuts into the pre-game shows also? 0BAMA may actually feel pressure to cut to the chase, get right to the point, and give a short speech. But if that happens, it would blunt the impact he hopes to have by giving a prime time speech to a joint session of Congress and the nation.
