Can you spare 37 minutes?

If you can spare 37 minutes, you have got to watch this most awesome video.

Barack Obama, who has impressed me from day one (and always has great speeches) made possibly the best speech of his career today.

It’s been all over the news. If you’ve not seen it in it’s entirety here’s your chance. It’s well worth the time.

Among other things, it answers the criticism he’s gotten over stuff his Pastor has said recently and in the past (but that’s only part of it).

And here is the complete text of the speech:

New York Governor Eliot Spitzer hired a High Priced Call Girl

New York Governor Eliot Spitzer has admitted that he had been involved in a prostitution ring. In fact, his involvement was that he was a client of one of the prostitutes!

What the hell was this guy thinking? At least Bill Clinton wasn’t with a prostitute. Spitzer could end up on federal charges because he arranged for the prostitute to cross state lines (and of course he could be charged in D.C. as well).

Clinton said he did it “because he could” but obviously he had problems in his marriage. At the very least, Spitzer’s marriage is SERIOUSLY messed up. It had to be, he was risking waaay to much to hire a prostitute (not to mention the hypocrisy of the “law and order stances he’s taken as Governor AND former Attorney General(!) ).
