I think you could be right here. I was listening to Monica Crawly on the radio last night and she was hammering Obama for how the Iranians exploited his impotence and ridiculed him by timing the capture of our sailors on the day of his State of the Union Address. She was articulate, she was passionate, she was very convincing.

Not just pause, and let that sink in for a bit......
