CBS News poll: Most viewers approve of Biden's speech
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-news-p ... ns-speech/
Most viewers who tuned in to watch President Biden's speech liked what they heard and came away feeling optimistic about America.

Speech viewers described the president as "Presidential, "Caring," "Inspiring" and "Bold."

And history was made tonight with two women seated behind the president during an address to Congress, and a big majority of those who watched felt proud to see that.

:snippity:
Eighty-five percent of Americans who watched Mr. Biden's first address to a joint session of Congress overwhelmingly approve of his speech. Fifteen percent disapprove.

It's also fitting that Dr. Biden chose to wear Gabriela Hearst, a fashion designer known for her using sustainability practices and commitment to using recycled materials. A large part of President Biden's speech was about creating jobs that will combat climate change.

He is on a podium, however.
Biden knows the difference between a podium and a lectern, he's just toying with you. /s
Sure it’s not a rostrum? :biggrin:
Can we use words like this on Fogbow? Sounds dirty. :notlistening:

Podium, stage, rostrum, riser, platform. Pulpit is an interesting (but ultimately wrong choice).

I was so happy to hear the words science/scientists/researchers. The GOPs anti-science bullshit no longer leads public policy.

Biden's speech was the most bipartisan address to Congress (including SOTU) I've ever heard. He really reached out to the GOP. I found that so encouraging.

There were times when GOP didn't applaud a truly bipartisan issue like ... jobs. Aren't jobs a great thing, even if they're green industry jobs?

Anywho, I felt encouraged after last night's speech.

Isn't it interesting that Tim Scott, the only Black GOP senator, was selected to give the rebuttal? Hmmm. I wonder why? :think:

ETA: Scott was absolutely qualified to deliver the rebuttal.

:yeahthat:

That's a click-bait headline if ever there was one. Which is a turn-off for me.

Anybody see the snap poll responses to the speech? Yeah, exactly.

Mark McKinnon of @SHO_TheCircus: "#JoeBiden could go bigger than ‘anybody since FDR.’" @mmckinnon is a great guy & a shrewd #HackOnTap. Sarah Longwell: “Imagine there’s a car alarm that’s been going off for a long time and suddenly it’s quiet.”

2 minute clip, worth watching: https://www.rollcall.com/2021/04/29/mar ... since-fdr/

McKinnon: Biden's speech was transformational rather than transitional. Everybody six months ago, including Joe Biden, given his bipartisan nature, his 48 years in the Senate, that he was gonna come in and be incremental. Obama went in trying to be a transformational guy and didn't get as much done. We seemed to have flipped the script now, where Joe Biden, like on the campaign, is a man who is meeting the moment..." (listen to the clip for the rest)

Mitch heard your news about being BANED, Foggy. You made that poor old turtle cry.
