Here’s the Wordle of Obama’s speech. The larger the word, the more times it was used:

Who could have imagined that we were horrifically attacked by Muslims on 9-11-2001 and fought 2 miserable 8 year wars costing us trillions of dollars and thousands of military deaths and injuries and after all that we end up with a Foreigner Muslim as President. The Foreign President is crawling around the Muslim Eastern world on his belly begging for forgiveness from Osama Bin Laden and Bin Laden enablers in the Saudi and the Muslim's to forgive us and please to show us the way.

My sister in law's brother worked at the World Trade Center building 7 and on 9-11 he personally witnessed Americans splattering on the sidewalks. He said they were splattered like watermelons and that when they hit the ground only a red spray flew into the air. He said they went "kerplunk, kerplunk, kerplunk." He has never been the same since.

I thought it was a good speech. I didnt hear him apologizing or bowing or any of that nonsense. The only small part I had a problem with was...

"Likewise, it is important for Western countries to avoid impeding Muslim citizens from practicing religion as they see fit – for instance, by dictating what clothes a Muslim woman should wear. We cannot disguise hostility towards any religion behind the pretence of liberalism."

I dont think any of us are being hostile towards muslims when we disagree with this. I dont have a problem with muslim women wearing them if THEY so choose. But THEY must choose that and their right to wear what they want cannot trump the absolute requirement for security and identification.

Otherwise, I liked the speech. It was not meant to minister to you and I. It was meant to reach out to the middle of the muslim world. It probably achieved that goal.
