THE JUKE BOX

WHATS THAT DEAFENING SOUND ACROSS AMERICA?

ITS MILLIONS OF TV'S AND RADIOS ACROSS THE COUNTRY BEING TURNED OFF WHEN THE PRESIDENT GIVES A SPEECH.  HOW MANY REALLY LISTEN?

MOST PRESIDENTIAL SPEECHES ARE HUM-DRUM POLITICAL BLATHERING WITH VERY LITTLE SUBSTANCE.  LATER WE CAN LISTEN TO THE VARIOUS NETWORKS PICK THE HI-LIGHTS OF THE SPEECH ACCORDING TO THEIR POLITICAL BENT.  I HAVE HEARD SPEECHES FROM ROOSEVELT TO THE PRESENT,  MOST COULD BE CONTAINED IN ONE PARAGRAPH.  

HOW ABOUT A GOOD NAP INSTEAD?
