Update: See also The state of Obama is strong (Mike Madden)Obama hit a home run with the American public in the address last night, although the speech did serve to demonstrate the limitations of what individual Americans can do to help solve the crisis created by sociopathic greed and those who curry political favor with greed.
He explained the problems clearly.
[Pictured above-right are leaders of the loyal opposition: Sen. Joe Lieberman (aka Snagglepuss), Sen John McCain (aka McSame), and Sen. Lindsey Graham (aka doesn't Sidney Blumenthal have a funny-sounding last name).]
Obama stressed the need for Americans to obtain continuing education and vocational training and to give back to the community with service to our country. But individual Americans cannot regulate financial derivatives products and put back in place the regulations of greed, favoring the welfare of American society over the blind pursuit of profit.
