Thank you, Obama, for dropping truth bomb after truth bomb tonight.

[alp227]

MAN! I'm listening to NPR right now and am speechless. Obama is knocking down every stupid Fox News fearmongering talking point with doses of reason and reality. He went all out addressing Americans' fears and concerns about immigration, such as claims that illegal immigrants get unfair advantages. Out the window go all the complaints about Obama being the "open borders president" and stuff like that. Obama understands that America can welcome immigrants and enforce the law at the same time. Now it's time to take some action, Congress.

One of my favorite Jon Stewart lines.

[maced666]

9. Cool...calm. Smooth. Best speech EVER

Unreal!!!!!!!!

[sendero]

10. Obama is on the right track..

... the Republicans are going to get their noses rubbed in it if Obama stays the course. And that is why they are freaking out.

[LawDeeDah]

14. Probably why the networks wouldn't cover it

so I heard.

lousy feckless blankety blanks

[freshwest]

20. Yes, MSM's owners 'can't handle the truth!'

[1StrongBlackMan]

22. I wrote a LTE for my community news and ...

sent it off to the local daily rag ... in essence the letter requests that since the major networks did not feel the need to broadcast the speech, they should, in all fairness, refrain from broadcasting any response to the speech.

[kardonb]

11. action

action = congress: impossible !

[glinda]

12. It is amazing how much hate speech is coming out on sites though....sad...bet they did not even

listen to it.

[LawDeeDah]

13. Obama is always outstanding.

He is quite the amazing man, always has been but people just don't appreciate him enough for his huge intellect and matching heart.

[Cha]

15. Points mainstreamers on the boardcast networks needed to hear..but, oh well! Thank you, alp!

[Ford_Prefect]

16. I want to believe that this President can and will do more than Say the right things.

When you have that job you are already obliged to do much more than speak well. If you are not willing to fight for All of America then you have already failed the test. If you are not willing to fight for those ideas and ideals you betray them by the pretense of speaking as if you would.

Where is the DOJ response to voter purges and similar discrimination? What happened to Justice for all? The President has a great deal of constitutional authority to determine how policy will be enacted. Why has this president waited 6 years to act presidential where it really matters?

If he does finally confront this issue by declaring in policy details and procedures which bypass a cowardly and intemperate congress, I will be shocked and amazed.

17. .

[cilla4progress]

18. I have a theory about the new Obama.

He's been paying back Congressional debts. Probably the MOST political thing he does.

Now, in the last 2 years of his presidency, he's free to follow his own agenda.

Too bad he struggled building consensus. Weeny Democrats, and even weenier Republicans. Scared of real change.

[calimary]

32. Could well be true. Certainly makes sense. What does he have to lose at this point?

I'm listening to this Brit guy on Al Sharpton's show claim that "well, we just don't know." The subject was whether the President ruined any chances to "work together" or get anything bipartisan and blah-blah-blah. What a jerk! IS HE NUTS??? Where's he been for the last six years? In a frickin' COMA???? Hey, dude, you BELIEVE those assholes who say - well now we just can't work together....??? Seriously???? Dude: THEY WERE NEVER GONNA WORK TOGETHER!!!! NEVER!!!!!! This bunch was NEVER EVER gonna make time for this President. They've spent the past six years saying no. That's all they've done. Torpedoed everything, even ideas that some of their own had been promoting in the past. Those, too! Since this President got behind some of those, they decided it was no-go. ASSHOLES.

Hey, GOP, you climbed into bed with this. Now it gets to fuck you!

They'll soon prove they can't govern their way out of a Snapple lid. I'd bet some of 'em don't even remember how anymore. And for the asshole newbies, it's just all about the anarchy anyway. Remember, this bunch is into hating government and wanting to do everything they can to dismantle it. Which would leave us with anarchy. I find it funny and rather ironic that some of them are bringing up that word now. Well, I guess they'd know, 'eh?

[nxylas]

23. Pity nobody will hear it

Unless they're watching Spanish-language TV.

[mettamega]

24. & none of the Major Networks aired his Speech-Dumbing down of America Contines

[heaven05]

25. A Presidential address

and the MSM ignores it. America, I feel your racist, hateful empire crumbling beneath my feet.

[CountAllVotes]

26. Sign another thousand Executive Orders Mr. President!

Go! Go! Go!

This IS the man I voted for.

YES HE IS AND YES HE CAN & YES HE WILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

& recommend.

[polichick]

29. Hope he signs a buttload of them!

[world wide wally]

27. I wonder how many of the chickenshit, cowardly Democratic candidates that ran away from him and lost

are kicking themselves now.

[closeupready]

28. It was a costly mistake to do that, but they knew it was a risky maneuver.

Nobody likes a rat. Not even other rats.

[polichick]

30. They deserve to be kicked.

[uhnope]

31. It's true. He speaks clearly, directly, and lays it out. He's a tribute to basic rationality

No wonder that the deranged RW thinks it was "like watching a madman" http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/11/20/Obama-announces-amnesty

[POE-PurityOfEssence]

33. I like this Obama

He's feisty, where has he been?! Haven't seen this guy since he went to the GOP convention and lectured them!!
