2. Covering your ass is probably as good a motivation as any for
a speech of historic significance.

6. I'm getting a bit tired of his speeches. He doesn't seem to embody the ideals
he proclaims for himself.

Barack Obama was supposed to unite the country, overcoming racial and even partisan division. How's that working out?"

8. He already did address it.
This morning, in what was described as a "hastily arranged press conference" (Google it, and don't make me do your homework for you), during which he delivered the same old robotic claptrap as the last two times he tried to distance himself from Wright.

Not keeping a very close eye on your guy, eh?

9. Oh yes the whoremedia is telling him exactly what he needs to
do and what to say and how to act and come across.... Yes this speech he may give will be another great one according to those assholes and it will be the asshole whoremedia that will be doing all the praising. Hell,it must be nice to have the signals given to you before you swing. I call that cheating. This time this speech if obama gives one will not work to the mass populace because they will see it is just another attempt to cover his own ass......

Obama should go ahead and pull out of the campaign. He is done!

17. The post you've linked to isn't an Obama speech.
It's what one poster (Leopold's Ghost) thinks Obama should say.
