    Default Brown's Speech Sucked

    In a supposedly historical, transformative (in relation to current events) election, his speech just sucked so hard core. It was completely uninspired fluff, constructed of almost solely political catch phrases. There was absolutely no flow, no narrative to it. This guy does not have a longterm future, this election was the failure of coakley, and a knee jerk reaction against the system.

    Kind of like the Presidential Election.
    SEDITION: incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority.

    I'm still listening to it. I had to pause it a bit.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    Hopefully enough times that Obama feels like a complete asshole for even bringing it up in the first place.

    And that Obama speech for Coakley was weak as watered beer.

    When did Obama mention his truck? I missed it. Turned off the TV at about 8:30.

    He spent about a paragraph on it and talking about how he wouldn't get in that truck, and that the people there were on a bus not a truck, and how that bus was the bus of blah, blah... truck... blah, blah truck.

    Which gave Brown an opening to "joke" about the stupid truck. (At least Brown wasn't wearing a stupid cowboy hat that is too big for his head like a certain former Senator from Colorado).

    Doesn't Salazar have the bona fides to rock the hat?

    No. Salazar never wore that hat until he started running for a statewide election. The hat doesn't fit and he looks like an idiot. Facts that he knows as he doesn't wear it at any other time than election time.

    He fucking won. He can talk about his fucking truck as much as he likes.

    Kind of like all those lies about Obama told over and over about doing everything on C-SPAN for the transparency and above-board honesty...

    We were sick of hearing it, and well it was a lie anyways, and you guys are worried about a Republican's references to his truck?

    Talk about some fucked up priorities!
