The term "rose colored glasses" comes to mind.
That's not meant as a slam because we know you are a huge supporter of The President.
I thought he bordered between arrogant and perplexed. The content consisted of the same old retreads.
Clearly, he knows that he isn't any good at this kind of thing because he does far less than the past several Chief Executives who used them often as a PR tool.
On another note, the folks on his staff who should have known better really dropped the ball for him from a technical standpoint. Anybody notice the huge step ladder in the background of one of the shots? How could that have been left there? Also, the "running" colors in his tie? Anybody who has been around color TV for more than 10 minutes knows that small prints (even though on TV the tie looked single color -- it couldn't have been), cause that effect -- called more'.
I'm amazed that the folks at the White House Communications Agency (lovingly known as WOCA -- prounouced Wa-Ka -- to those of us who have televised Presidents) certainly know better.
Which, of course, had nothing to do with the content, but was distracting and amateur looking.
