paraphrase GWB acknowledges reinquist former pres's, congress and citizens (cheers)
on this day marked by ceremony
mindful of the consequential times in which we live
duties defined not by words
after the shipwreck of communism went quiet, days of repose and sabbatical, seen our weakness
as long as parts of the world simmer in resentment will be violence
only one force in history can
led by sense and common sense to conclusion that our liberty rests on liberty in other lands
our interests and deepest beliefs are now one, have always said everyone on earth has value, they are made in image of the maker
urgent requirement to seek and support the growth of democratic movements with the goal of ending tyranny in the world
freedom must be chosen and defended by citizens and rule of law
WE will not impose our style of govt on the unwilling
this is the concentrated work of generations
America's influence is considerable and we will use it.
Will protect America from attacks
we will clarify choice for every leader repression wrong
will not pretend dissidents enjoy chains make sure success in our relations means decent treatment of their people
rights a re secured by free dissent
no rights without liberty, some have questioned need for liberty, Americans should never be surprised by the power of our ideals
liberty will come to those who love it, all who live in tyranny will know the US will stand with you
democratic reformers will know America sees you for who you are, future leaders
leaders of govts need to know that to serve your people will need to trust them.
all the allies can know we rely on help
to fellow citizens have asked for patience in securing America, because we've acted in great liberating nature if the nation 10s of millions have achieved freedom
we have lit a fire in hearts of men one day it will reach the darkest corners of our world
many americans have answered this call we will always honour their names and sacrifice. Ask our youngest citizens, have seen soldiers, make the choice to serve a cause larger than your wants and you will add to the country
at home have unfinished work of american liberty.
economic indepence instead of labouring on the edge of subsistence
we will bring the highest standards to schools and build an ownership society mentions insurance pensions etc
we will make society more prosperous, just and equal
society depends on integrity and conscience, depends on governance of self, families
move forward by affirming truths of the past
in America's ideal of freedom, liberty from all does not mean Independence from one another.
even the unwanted have worth
our country must abandon racism, cannot carry message of freedom and baggage of bigotry at the same time
Americans of every party and background are bound by the cause of liberty. I will try and heal divisions
we can feel unity and pride when america acts for good.
we go forward with complete confidence, human choices move events God moves as He wills.
History has an ebb and flow of justice but has an inevitable flow of liberty, when liberty bell first rung said that it meant something, means something still
we are ready for the greatest achievements in the history of freedom.
