President sending mixed signals – and more letters to the editors

President sending mixed signals

As we finish listening to the presidential address, my review is that the President gave a largely uncertain speech.

The majority of the address talked about why Congress should act on his military authorization resolution, but at the same time he says he will go with Putin’s proposal.

I think the parts of the address about military force were politically motivated, and basically rebuked Congress for even thinking about voting no on his proposal.

I think he would like to go with Putin’s plan, but I’m not sure he believes it will work. So largely as we move forward after this address, it sounds like the president doesn’t know what way we are going.
