Joy!
An intelligent and sensible President!

A good address, despite the apparently obligatory references to American exceptionalism. Nothing really new.

But thanks for the post, twolf1.

Hey sorry I duplicated your post on the main page. My bad.

Digg

wow
COPY THAT, twolf1!
Thanks for this.

blogwhore alert: skippy has a link to a (semi) exclusive slideshow of the obama family on election nite.

Wonder if that video was compressed using the Ted Stevenson codec?

what does that mean?

OT but I am sure I will be forgiven.

This morning Katymine mentioned she will be going into the hospital for a week, she mentioned that she will have a laptop, if your reading this or if someone knows her email, laptops can play movies. No everone realizes this because, if your home you want to watch the movie on your TV. But in a hospital if can be a nice diversion. I used PowerDVD, because it came for free with the DVD drive.

Of course, if your reading this I wish you every success!

A more formal version of his Senatorial podcasts.
At least he doesn’t address his constituents as ‘you guys’ any more.
^_^

A completely feeble attempt at humor by attributing a video compression scheme to tech guru Ted “Toobz” Stevens based on an impossibly remote resemblance to the (real) Sorenson codec.

I think stone tablets would be assuming too much!

cuneiform on clay tablets, then sun-baked.

Cool slideshow, thanks.

thanks skippy. it’s great seeing the pic.

and thanks twolf1 for showing the utube and starting a dialogue.

i especially like this bit because it is both the right thing to do and it’s specific:

In particular, we cannot afford to delay providing help for the more than one million Americans who will have exhausted their unemployment insurance by the end of this year.

((((katymine))))

I’ve no doubt that Obama will manage to annoy and frustrate all of us, at least from time to time, … however I, personally, am quite certain that I shall be able to hear the sound of his voice (and his ideas) without cringing at the bemanglement of the language or the paucity of content.

Thanks, twolf1, I NEEDED that!!!

;~D

I think you are being too tough on the guy who invented the Blackberry. He would have at least used eight track tape or maybe even a Commodore 64.

I liked that bit too…

Williams and Connolly’s Greg Craig, who furnished the Clinton’s first apartment at Yale, has been chosen White House Counsel. Craig was instremental in advising Obama to vote for the odious FISA bill.

Craig was instrumental not instremental.

I have tried to watch 20 You Tube videos in the last 3 days and all were no longer available. Anyone know what’s going on?
