"He took us to the mountain tops.” “Big and bold.” “He wowed us!”

No, these aren’t movie critic blurbs on a movie poster praising a star actor’s performance, these were the immediate reactions from the liberal media to President Barack Obama’s first address to Congress.
Will Donald Trump’s speech tonight receive similar accolades?
Given the press’s hostility to the new president, it seems unlikely.

But back in 2009, the first takes on Obama’s speech were effusive. MSNBC’s Chris Matthews gushed
“He wowed us!” CNN’s Jack Cafferty proclaimed “He’s got what it takes to lead this country back into the sunlight.”ABC’s George Stephanopoulos cheered that Obama “began on hope” and “ended on hope.”

Stephanopoulos’s colleague Terry Moran called the speech “big and bold” but never called it liberal, even though it was a wish list of leftist policies.
On the other hand, Governor Bobby Jindal, who delivered the GOP response that night, was called a
“Debbie Downer” by CBS’s Maggie Rodriguez.

MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann: “What can the Republican response be?...How do you come out against recovering the nation’s sense of self and its optimism?
How do you come out against words like ‘boldly,’ ‘wisely,’ ‘swiftly,’ and ‘aggressively?’”

FLASHBACK: Media Gushed Over Obama’s First Address to Congress
 
So when he gives the same dumb speech that he always gives, you'll pout if they say it was the same dumb speech. Got it.
