Goofus and Gallant

Exhibit A: a speech which we are now informed was rude, inappropriately confrontational, offensive, insolent, if not downright seditious.

Exhibit B: from 2006, a speech which we were then informed was bold, heavily nuanced, gutsy, brilliant, an all-around act of patriotic speaking of truthiness-to-power by the comic Bard of our age, a man with a cast iron pair clanging inside his tuxedo trousers.

Remember your media dissent etiquette, kids! Making the president squirm is only for white millionaire cable TV comedians, not for black pediatric neurosurgeons.
