As always, good post!! You have thrown the blanket and captured O's behavior that bothers most of us...Lots of fog, much hot air, and not much if anything, of substance. Plus, given that, the people he has surrounded himself, and thus all of us, seem more like characters from the Sopranos rather than people we can trust and invite into our homes. Obama intended to wrap his plan in vagueness (just like he campaigned, come to think of it)

All he's doing is raising his cadence as he goes to the punch line that signals applause...it's "call and response" interaction from the slave days, taken into rap and the black church. listen to Rev. Wright do it..keying a verbal reaction from the audience. Father Divine was doing it in the 20's, and many black preachers before him....but with Obama there's no thought or reasoned argument behind it...it's Mussolini, an appeal to the emotions, not reason, with a lot of posturing... Obama is an inch away from a caricature. He's a PR creature, backed by a huge amount of money, a lot of it George Soros...
