I might be in class or probably studying for classes. I mean it's right in the middle of the week so something is probably going to happen in Thursday or Friday classes.

Guys, I think he's talking about the Congressional address, not the school thing. I might watch, depending on what i've got going on.

Meh, maybe. It's my last day of summer before school starts though so I may be at a party... or sleeping. Either way I don't think Obama will fit in.

I will watch it with enthusiasm, though none of it applies to me as an ex-pat.

Right, because when they come out and say that people are going to have to BUY INTO this option that's not talking about how to pay for it, and when they talk about repealing the Bush tax cuts and raising sales taxes on unhealthy food items that's not talking about how to pay for it, and when they talk about imposing fees on insurance companies that's not talking about how to pay for it.

no because when you have programs that give people $8000 for new home purchase, cash for clunkers, and many other less that fiscally responsible programs doing what your talking about doesnt even cover those...and by the way repealing the tax cuts in a recession is socioeconomic suicide...

No because I'm not American. I do expect a lot of threads in OT complaining about it afterwards though.

I want to hear both the school and the congress speeches and I'm not even american O.O, I think it's in everyone's best interest to do the same if they find themselves at the level that they should know what's going on.
