Fair is Fair (regarding this morning's speech from the Prez)
#1
I'm known for being a non-fan of our sitting President, and that hasn't changed.  I've found him to be, largely, a babbling buffoon the whole time I've been aware of him.

THAT SAID-

     -in his speech this morning, dealing with the tragic mass shootings/domestic terrorism that occurred over the weekend, he actually mentioned both domestic terrorism (something he's seemed reluctant to do, previously) and white nationalism...which, theoretically, may have pissed off much of his reported base...even though I consider that "support" to largely be overblown by a biased media.

I give him buckets of criticism/mockery over his many gaffes, but I try to call a straight game.  I applaud his speech this morning, I applaud the repeated calls for unity, and I especially applaud him calling out a group that's an undeniable threat to the country right now.

If he manages to continue working more toward healing the country and less towards twitter spittle, I'll be genuinely impressed.
STRETCH RUN, VIKINGS...LET'S END THIS SEASON WITH BANGS!

I liked that he is throwing out a compromise of sorts,  expanded back ground checks tied to immigration reform.  give and take by both sides is the only way we will ever see the needle move.

I didn't listen today. I haven't much lately to any of them.
What he says is only half of it with this one. He gets some goodwill for today. Ok, what's your over/under on him wasting it with a tweet? One week is the spred.

Go ahead and brief me on it Zan. 
I really can't take watching or reading this sh!t anymore. I trust you to be unbiased enough to fill me in.
Only so many ways they can spin things before it all sounds fake to me.
I'll be watching alot of Downtown Abby now that I found this one.

Well, I do figure that anything but stark agreement from the dnc will result in the typical twitter tirade...so I'm not expecting much successful compromise.

That said, I wasn't expecting him to call out the saltine militia, either, so maybe it's possible...!
