Good Speech

[Tecumsehsbones]

As fun as it is poking the hypocrites who burst blood vessels over Obama's failure to use the term "radical Islamic terrorism" and are perfectly OK with Trump doing the exact same thing, I thought the speech yesterday was pretty good.

Bizarrely, Trump may turn out to be a pretty decent foreign-policy President. The key issue, of course, is follow-through. Launching missiles at Syria or sending the Vinson to the Indian Ocean to threaten North Korea (what?) or making a good speech in Riyadh don't do much good if they're one-off stunts.

And I wish him luck. I am hopeful for a successful conclusion to this nonsense in the ME and NK.

Too much to ask. I'll praise him if he manages to move the ball forward a coupla yards (or, in Canadian, gets the puck past the blue line).

One has to keep hoping.

And laughing.

What is it with you people and balls, anyhow? Hockey. Curling. Y'all sphereophobic? The one time y'all invent a decent game with a ball, y'all immediately export it to the U.S. and forget about it.

Maybe we got a good price.

Hmm. . . never thought of it that way. Y'all always were pretty sharp down to the old trading post. Just ask the Hurons.

This was a good US export. Red Rubber Ball.

Beats heck outta the "oh baby baby you left me and I wanna die" songs.

Oh yes, that speech sounded great to the West....well some in the West.

Ric Santorum was not impressed or his ilk.

Funny thing, saw a clip of an evil journalist challenge a rep from Saudi Arabia on how Syria should have free elections but not....well you know the rest.....hint: rhymes with outy labia...
