Howard Fineman is editorial director of the Huffington Post Media Group and a long-time water-carrier for President Barack Obama. Since Hot Air’s Allahpundit blasted the president’s executive amnesty speech as the “lowest moment of his presidency,” we thought we’d check in with Fineman for a “real journalist’s” take on the speech.
One of #Obama's best speeches.

Just one? It was so good it was all of the president’s best speeches at once.

@NoahCRothman Are you inebriated? @howardfineman That was wretched.

The part where he insinuated that all illegal immigrants “pick our fruit” and “make our beds” was pretty inspiring.

So this is how liberty dies, to the sound of Howard's applause. RT @howardfineman: One of #Obama's best speeches.
— Anne (@docboogie) November 21, 2014
Yes, one of his best, right up there with his “You didn’t build that” speech.
