Hardly worth commenting on.
Reagan's was prayerful, measured masterpiece.
Bush's was out of touch with reality. Related only in a vague and haughty way to the problems staring him in the face (in much the way as his irresponsible and irrelevant "axis of evil" term was).
Thank you for your measured and balanced opinion.
(Seems like some the hits Reagan got when he coined the term Evil Empire.)
Would it be asking too much if you cited a portion of President Bush's speech and then explained why you are characterizing it as you are?
""Bush's was out of touch with reality. Related only in a vague and haughty way to the problems staring him in the face (in much the way as his irresponsible and irrelevant "axis of evil" term was)."
"haughty" now there is a very religious word, so come be bold and check your own out of touch with reality, you don't like Bush's religion.

Icon, I think you just hit your third hole in one!

Perhaps not "haughty" but definitely vague, "in the clouds," manner. Condescending maybe a better word. Why disguise the true identity of the enemy? That's where the speech lost the power it was building up to.
