But change was in the air, and on November 5, 2009 Barack Obama was elected President of the United States on a nebulous promise of “hope and change.” Either a typo in the year or a tense problem with the past tense "was". Or else the writer needs to consult Time Traveler's Handbook of 1001 Tense Formations.

In the Middle Earth Trilogy, Ents are warned time and again of the danger they face at the hand of man, but it is not until they go to the edge of their forest and witness the destruction of their homeland that Ents rise up and defeat their foes. Actually, that's from the movie trilogy. In the books the Ents aren't stupid, they're perfectly well aware of what is going on around them and decide to fight without being startled into it. They make this decision even though they realize they will probably fail and die.
Also, when Ents get p*ssed off they can move quite rapidly. As a whole bunch of orcs found out.

Not true. In the books, the Ents are roused by Treebeard, who calls a council (Entmoot) and brings the 2 hobbits to testify about their ordeal and the plans of Saruman. That plus the evil they had already suffered at the hands of Saruman's orcs finally spurred them into action. They were already singing their war song on the march to Isengard. ("We go, we go, we go to war/ To hew the stone and break the door!")

I guess the President didn't lie in his joint session speech; he just didn't tell the truth.No, he lied.
