I know this makes for interesting conversation. Seriosly. This is not somthing that is happening in this country. A lot of weird shit might be going down. I assure you military coup is not one of them.

I suppose most Dwellars know I support Obama.
That said, IMO yesterday's speech was probably the his best-to-date. I did watch and listen to all except the first couple of minutes. I expected him to build up to a justification for adopting the Bill in the OP. But he did not. Instead, he called for a reduction in the use of drones, justification for draw down of troops from the middle east closure of Gitmo, and most importantly, justification for a final, formal, and legal end to the US "War on Terrorism". There was point in his talk where he could easily have slipped in his adoption of that Bill, but I think he went the other direction. It goes without saying, I was much relieved. It remains to be seen what actually comes out of the politics of Congress. |

Hi Classic... glad to see you're back. My posting was... Quote:
Did I omit any important issues in his speech ? Does it remain to be seen what will come out of the Congress ? |
