re: #201 RogueOne

He’s drawing attention to a fight, not a policy outline.

Yep, Rogue. I’m sure you’ve nailed it. The same sagacity that makes you doubt global warming (error bars!) has been brought to bear on Obama’s actions here and is showing the same fruit. Obama desperately wants people to not pay attention to his speech, so he did something that winds up with a lot more people knowing about the speech than would have otherwise. It even means that there will be stories about when the speech is being given.

It’s a very, very cunning plan to distract from the speech. Make sure that the date of the speech is made a big deal of. That way, nobody will watch it.

So cunning.
