He covered a lot of ground. There is time to debate the merits of all he covered, but, one thing is completely clear, he is not a fan of Congress as much as Congress is a fan of his. He also is setting up the agenda of transparency as a defense for his initiatives. I am not one that needs to see every detail that occurs, I trust him.
He is delivering on campaign promises and that is very important. No one should stand in opposition of promises delivered. He was elected with a mandate and it is completely obvious he intends to deliver. There is no reason why the change he promised cannot be delivered to the people of this country by Congress, it enjoys a substantial majority in both houses. It was the result Americans worked toward during the years of Walker Bush. It is time for Congress to move the agenda forward. Failure won't guarantee them a place in victory or history.
I watched the Republican response in the grandstanding performance of McDonald. He stated nothing but rhetoric with no substance or policy. So, what else is new?
Tomorrow then.
