Sigh...Americans can be such racist jerks. Makes me so proud to be American, lol.

Sunday night President Barack Obama gave a speech in Newtown, Connecticut after the tragedy that occurred as gunman Adam Lanza killed 20 students and 6 adults at Sandy Hook Elementary. Many flooded Twitter to express their anger that the President would give a speech during Sunday Night Football's matchup between the Patriots and 49ers.

At least Obama mostly did without the fake-crying bit this time out. I didn't like the beginning of the speech - the wannabe interfaith preacher crap - but the rest of it was pretty decent.

As far as the tweets go ... cry me a river Pats and Niners fans. I've had entire quarters of playoff basketball interrupted by regional thunderstorm warnings with "some slight cloud rotation".
