One wonders if they shouldn't ease up, calm down, breathe deep, get more securely grounded. The most moving speeches summon us to the cause of what is actually possible. Perfection in the life of man on earth is not.
I'm actually gonna cut Peggy a little slack here...
 
Bush's speech was magnificent, and the day was absolutely lovely. Bush's dream, his vision, is beautiful and inspiring, and it is one that all compassionate people share.
 
Is it possible? Is it realistic? Let us hope that it is but, I think that one, while hoping "Yes!", can still forgive another for saying, "Maybe no."

There are those that must have said that "tear down this wall" was unrealistic too. I find Peggy to be a bloody hypocrite.

It's projection on her part and putting words in W's mouth that he never said. Maybe she had a few too many wines today, who know ?

I keep thinking of the line from Hamlet about how all great enterprises and the pitch and movements of men are carried awry. President Bush is not a man prone to the danger of hubris. We are mortals subject to the Will Of God and our breath and our souls are in His Keeping, Blessed Be His Name.
