Obama labor day speech cancelled

I was settled in, ready to hear a speech and become educated regarding Labor Day a la Sen. Obama. Sen. Obama announces a change to his speech due to the hurricane Gustav with what he felt were appropriate excuses.

All I can say at this point is I would not have done what Sen. Obama did. I would have given the speech the people came out to hear. Many came with friends and relatives. I would not have disappointed them. I would have given what I would think was an appropriate reach-out regarding the hurricane and the effected populations and other niceties but never would I have cancelled my speech. I would not have felt I was in a “dammed if I do, dammed if I don’t” situation.

Going to the theater and finding out the star of the show took ill suddenly and his/her understudy would perform is bad enough but to cancel the event altogether would really piss me off. I’ll just end as I began by saying I would not have done it. My feelings regarding my support system would not have allowed me to do so.
As always,
