Morning all!
Some random thoughts on last night’s speechifying:
Nancy Pelosi’s cheerleading and Biden’s smirk: what kind of drugs are they on?
The relentless (sometimes subtle, sometimes blatant ) bashing of big business and former Presidents. “For the last ten years….” I bet Clinton is pissed.
No memorable phrases. WaPo end of world headline this morning is “Day of Reckoning.” I reckon that was the best they could do.
Utter lack of specifics. Two of Barry’s points stick out. “No earmarks in the stimulus” but the people of Minneapolis are safer because we funded 54 new police officers there.
Do the good people of Minneapolis really want and need to trust their safety to the generosity of the Federal government?

I miss Ronald Reagan. Heck, I miss both G. Bushes.
