You might be right, but I have read variously that he used the words "terrible resolve." Personally, I like to think that the "terrible resolve" is what has been awakened in this nation regarding Healthcare and Amnesty. A terrible resolve would mean the unconditional surrender of liberalism to the side of decency.

“I fear that we have awakened a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve.”

Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto
Empire of Japan
December 7th, 1941

TY for posting these. Specter was shameful today. I was shocked that he was for single payer and admitted it. That tells me that is exactly what they have up their sleeve. If they try that, their will be a CW in this country and won’t be between the North and South this time. It will be between the Socialist, Communists and government vs. the majority of the people that have had it!

AND FILLED IT WITH A GREAT REMORSE!

Your quote is not historically accurate, but accurate nonetheless. We are filled with great remorse for electing Obama to the Presidency.

Remorse = Resolve

You caught me disambiguating.

Googled “Sleeping giant filled with great remorse”
and I got proof that remorse is correct. Top of the
list. No kidding (in a circular logic kind of way).

You have Awakened A Sleeping Giant

When fact meets fiction.

Culture: ent Ancient beyond reckoning, Treebeard the Ent is one of the last of his dwindling kind, the long forgotten tree shepherds of Fangorn Forest who once strode throughout the woods of Middle-earth. A wise and slow to act people, the Ents are persuaded by Treebeard, after his fateful meeting with Merry and Pippin, to awaken and lend their long slumbering might to the fight against the darkness threatening their world. Treebeard leads the March of the Ents and succeeds in flooding and destroying Isengard’s war machine.
