I will watch. Just to hear him say, Thank you to "W" for having the faith that our brave military could do it.

Wait!

Well maybe I will just watch to join in the drinking games!

Or I just might see Gibbs get his a$$ kicked by Gretchen in back ground!

Can anyone tell me off the top of their head what Obama will be pre-empting tonight? Anything of interest? Just curious....

This really sounds like his mission accomplished but we’ll stay and be ready to fight. You would think that we would have resolved to stay as long as necessary with rotation of our troops.

Now we’re in Afghanistan and don’t have a clear reason of why we’re there now.

I’ll be lancing a boil. Less painful and I will have something to show for it.

I used to avoid listening to his speeches. Now, I look forward to the next one.

Here is something to help make Obama's speeches almost tolerable.

Just print out this page, distribute it to friends, and listen...

(be sure to read directions at the bottom)

Rules for Bullshit Bingo:

1. Before Barrack Obama's next televised speech, print your "Bullshit Bingo"

2. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those words/phrases.

3. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, stand up and shout "BULLSHIT!"

Testimonials from past satisfied "Bullshit Bingo" players:

"I had been listening to the speech for only five minutes when I won." - Jack W., Boston

"My attention span during speeches has improved dramatically." - David D., Florida

"What a gas! Speeches will never be the same for me after my first win." - Bill R., New York City

"The atmosphere was tense in the last speech as 14 of us waited for the fifth box." - Ben G., Denver

I’m scheduling a bowel movement for that slot in time ... for the same reasons you cited.

I have never listened to any of his teleprompter readings in their entirety. I won’t even consider this one. I will wait and read the comments here from the truly brave with stronger stomachs.

Be gentle on me, in all my years here this is my FIRST LIVE THREAD!
I think Jim announced the end of combat operations over live threads quite a while ago, so you're in the clear.

The evening news will tell us what Obama is going to say, Obama is going to say it, and then the network news will tell us what he said.

Can’t do it. I’m pretty sure I’ll be cleaning the cat box at that time.

Lets see: 50,000 troops still there, and I haven’t seen footage of convoys of tanks and other vehicles coming over the border.

So, really, the administration support and committment to combat operations has ended...but not the actual operations.

Bizzaro world.
