The parts about freedom, and being created in God's image........ALL of that, negated by one diplomatic phrase?

No, I did not miss any of the President's speech.
Having heard that he was on his fourteenth draft of the speech, I suppose my expectations were overly high.

It was a standard boilerplate speech, and the one reference struck me as discordant, even for a boilerplate speech, since terrorism is his greatest challenge and, by unavoidable implication, islam.

Read it again, Publius.

It is anything but 'boilerplate.'

Remove the knee-jerk reaction to the word 'Koran,' think about what this President has done to protect America from Islamofascists, remove brutal dictatorships and regimes, and free millions of people from tyranny, and read it again.
