@luzcypher the meme just reinforces how bad politics has become with scripting - and not even with their own words. It's generally the words of "professional" speech writers and PR people.

Authenticity is something in short supply in the day and age of "reality" everything (reality television, virtual reality, etc). That word has been so butchered, it reminds me of something from the Ministry of Truth in George Orwell's 1984.

Perhaps the next fireside chat should be a video of you on dtube having the chat in your smoking jacket by a camp fire on the beach. Be well, sir.
