talkpoliticsWe have a president who tells the truth. He didn't dress up today's speech with all kinds of prettiness. He said people would have to make painful sacrifices. But they would be for the good of the future. I still feel for folks who are losing their jobs, and it may be cold comfort for them that he was honest. But i would still rather have honesty than political spin. Or inaction.
