What will Mr. Obama promise this time? Close Gitmo? Cure cancer and diabetes? Pass the Equal Pay Act? Raise minimum wage to over $10/hr? End the war in Afghanistan? Destroy ISIS? Colonize outer space? Expand EITC?

I suspect it'll be a mash up of all his previous speeches. And more lecture like than normal.

He stopped being inspiring (and yes, I thought he was inspiring once as I was voting for him) many years ago. I'm sure tonight will not be any different.

Here's a preview…
1. Republicans need to help me pass more gun laws. Who cares if it doesn't get at the root of the problem, feeling good is what matters.
2. Historic Iran deal means peace in the middle east for ages to come.
3. Anyone concerned about rising health care costs doesn't want people to have health insurance.
4. Climate change deal and wind, solar, and tracking will save the world!
5. I fixed gas prices and the stock market.

I saw Eleanor Clift on the McLaughlin group show last week and she said the three greatest accomplishments of Obama’s presidency are ObamaCare, the Global warming summit and the Nuclear deal with Iran.

Will Obama address how he is going to rescue the 10 US sailors that Iran just captured?

I'd love to live in the world that Obama perceives, as opposed to the one that exists.

Dang, Cithead, that's downright uncharitable.
By now you've probably noticed that gas is cheaper than when that miserable failure, the Bush administration, left town.
