It was a Gump of a speech

I watched a few minutes of President Obama’s long speech the other night, just enough to know he was reciting phrases from the Book of Things Said in Previous Speeches and Which Will Satisfy Media and Other Supporters.

The speech was an exercise in dumbassitis, a talk talked for the purpose of talking. What was said did not matter, except that it be said in a manner supporters would support.

P.J. O’Rourke: “Stupid is a great force in human affairs. And the great force has a commander in chief.”
