Now adays presidents don't have to be grand orrators anymore, they can just read the telepromptor and have someone write them a speech. I think that back in the day, I could be wrong but, the presidents had to deliver speeches with a certain modicom of skill and speaking talents, like the orrators of old, plus I think they probably wrote them more often too, though they may have had help. But I think these skills have sort of been pushed aside now adays, a shame it is.
In college I started wondering if I had a problem, I would fall asleep all the time during class, it got worse as I got older, and I started falling asleep other places too, I'd feel the sleep trance come over me and there was nothing I could do to stop it, even though it was embarrassing. Fortunately when I got out of college and started having enough time to sleep enough for my body the problem went away. I very rarely fall asleep during anything now, maybe once every couple of months if its morning and I'm listening to someone talk, but its more mannageable when it does happen and it very rarely does now. I was glad it fixed itself because I didn't want another problem.

There you go. Me, too, by the way...and to this day I fall asleep in doctors' offices. Which is actually a good thing, given how long one waits to see a doctor, it's a good way to make up a few zzz's.
Maybe it's a GOOD sign, meaning that Biden is staying up all hours to help deal with the debt, eh? Or that Biden, like McCain, is an old man?
Silly thread...on to more interesting things.
Oh, by the way Riona, Presidents' speeches have almost ALWAYS been boring...they're just politispeak, everyone knows it (except the very young and the very naive)...they're no different than they used to be. Trust me, I've seen enough of them, now I don't even watch.

You do realize that presidents, vice presidents, and certain other white house staff are awake and at work longer than almost any other job, add on the fact that they travel through different time-zones often, which can play havoc on a persons sleeping habits.

Hello,
I am terribly disappointed in Biden for falling asleep during that speech. I recently made a list of current events. The War in Afghanistan, the Crushing Debt, the Budget Crisis, the Erosion of Civil Liberties, the civil wars raging across the Mideast, and the dangerous dance of the U.S. intervening in Libya.
After making the list, I studied it, and I found that Biden's nap was definitely the issue most worth addressing. I suggest that congress make a non-binding resolution to chastise Biden for this wretched insult to the Commander in Chief.
Also, I find it disrespectful of people to comment on this thread if they don't agree with it. It is especially awful of them to comment if they consider this thread a non-issue, or even mockworthy. Not only are you using your free speech inappropriately to make light of a serious problem, but you are all enemies of America. That is, the TRUE America, not Obama's America.
As an aside, I hate Obama's America, and if Obama gave a speech in front of me, I would insult him by taking a nap. And I'd dream about a world without Obama.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I must return to my regularly scheduled sanity.
Good day,
--Anthony

Sheesh. I figured since I put it in a trademarked title, you'd get the gag for what it was. Notice I also pluralized the "interwebz" with a "z".
Sorry you couldn't get the subtlety, but thanks for playing anyway, loser.

You are certainly showing hypocrisy. But we're used to it, because you display it on nearly every "issue" - even such non-issues as whether or not someone was dozing off during a political speech.

Rappy must think he's Eric Cantor now - if you don't do what he says, his words become law automatically! Now you have to AGREE with his posts to be allowed to comment.
So, Rappy, what happens if we don't abide by your rules?

How are you the spellingfairy?
Kwicko, I formally condemn your mother for not aborting you. Yeah, I'm sure her brother was happy to have a son, but you are inexcusable....
