A tale of two speeches....

I thought I would throw up a post with the speeches of both Mrs. Palin, and President Obama.

Watching them I just could not ignore the radical differences in both delivery and and substance.

Mrs. Palin:


President Obama:


A few comments. If their were any doubt, this should clear it up. Mrs. Palin seems to be incapable of reaching out to anyone who disagrees with her. She is a living, breathing, seething personification of resentment. I do not doubt that she feels aggrieved over some of the comments that have been lobbed her way over the past few days, and I believe she has internalized those feelings. Some of those comments directed at here have been way over the line, but this day was not about her or her hurt feelings. The level of narcissism Mrs. Palin exhibits is extraordinary. A normal person in her position would probably offer that, though they were not culpable in this senseless tragedy, perhaps one should be more circumspect in the words one uses to describe and assault their opponents. There was none of that in Palin's speech.

As for the President, well his words spoke to something different.
