I would really like him to speak about what the Iraqi people had to endure though

He speaks of it everytime he gives a speech and hit it today heavily.

Admittedly we didn't transcribe it--but he most certainly talked about it--and not glossing over it, but in detail. Then spoke of the improvements being made .

ACK!! CNN playing Bill Clinton reading from his audio book.

Horrors - turn off CNN, quickly! SAVE YOURSELF! ;-)

No, you missed my point about W's speeches containing examples. My point is to not only mention an atrocity, but to personalize it.

Example:

PARENTS in Iraq have been beaten and THEIR CHILDREN made to watch.

vs.

Imagine if it were YOUR and YOU and YOUR MOM, YOUR CHILD - that kind of stuff.

Don't get me wrong, I'm only trying to add a higher level of emotion to get an even bigger charge out of the speech. ---It's BECAUSE I care so much for W!
