Good thing the rest of the world is in on the joke.
Entertainment value is off the charts.
Think these are different than the pressers. Not that he couldn’t be late if he really wanted, but, think his enablers start pumping him full of whatever sooner for these.
I can’t listen to the magic knee-gro. It makes my skin eerily crawl over my body in an evil way when I hear it’s voice..
Besides, I have to clean the lint out of the dryer.

Hillary Clinton just finished her acceptance speech at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, where she received the 2013 Liberty Medal. Her remarks made only passing mention of the Syria crisis and the president’s speech in an hour, favoring a long lens that served to situate the debate over military intervention in the context of America’s democratic heritage.
“How do we provide both security and liberty at home and abroad?” Clinton asked, saying that the Syrian government’s chemical weapons use “violates a universal norm at the heart of our global order” and that the United States holds a unique capability and obligation to respond.
From there, Clinton chose to tie in several references to the nation’s founders and founding principles rather than advocate for specific military or diplomatic solutions, in a nod to the location of her address and perhaps to the president himself, set to make his own case from the East Room. “This debate is good for our democracy,” Clinton said, citing the lasting need for Americans to coalesce around a plan of action going back to Franklin’s famous Revolutionary War mantra, “We must indeed all hang together, or most assuredly we will all hang separately,” and Madison’s assertion that a united America without a single troop is more formidable than a disunited America with 100,000 armed veterans strong.
Clinton remembered her time as Secretary of State, saying that she was always reminded of how America was viewed around the world. “Unity leads to strength, and disunity leads to perceived weakness,” Clinton said. “When we let partisanship override citizenship… our standing in the world suffers.” She also noted tomorrow’s anniversary of the September 11th attacks and her experience as a New York senator during that time, watching the nation come together. It will be worth watching for how Obama chooses to reference such a charged anniversary in the context of his speech tonight.
LOL...it will be amusing to see, no matter what time he shows up.
Wonder if he’s got an extra dose of grey hair dye for tonight!
I’m drinking a few IPA’s and listening to some good old tunes.
Better than watching the cartoon.
“Why in gods name would one watch this?”
Always know what the enemy is doing.
A long lens is always a good choice for Madam Former Secretary and BJ Clinton Doormat.
I need to wash my hair.
Obama will pledge to explore Russian initiative on Syria in tonight’s speech, according to an administration official, who says the president will explain to Americans why it is in U.S. national security interests for Syria to face consequences for chemical weapons use. In addition, the official also told Reuters that Obama will stress that any U.S. military action in Syria would be limited in scope and duration.

My condolences to those of you with the guts to watch his crap accumulate. I salute you. I have given up being told nothing, and, most of that is a lie.
The last obama speech where he punted to Congress was the last one I will watch unless I want a good laugh!
Agree. Also, it will be fun to follow along here as FReepers call out Bama’s boolsheet.
I get a vicarious thrill knowing Putin is handing Obammy his ass............you see...Putin isnt into fellas with butt boys......and I like that in a KGB agent! /s
I think Hussein will pat himself on the back for avoiding a war - after all, he is the peace maker and he will hammer on that over and over - he has averted a war - all hail to the peace maker! /s/s
{chuckle}
GW won’t be listening to Obama’s big speech tonight. He’s sitting next to Nolan Ryan at The Ball Park in Arlington watching the Rangers play.
LOL..you can tell how much 0bomba is lying by how much grey he sprays on.
Kind of like watching a plane crash.
