The speach was a mess, Michael Gerson had a mild heart attack while writing it and his team of 'speach writers' came up with a campaign speach after they won.
Even Bush senior is coming out and saying there are no foreign policy implications that can be read into it.
William F Buckley was scratching his head about what it all meant.
In Inaugural Speach should be a simple "Thank you for your support", leave foreign policy for another day and more sober minds.
I liked it..It invoked the idealism common to America about liberty, long term aspirations of freedom for our fellow man.
We are more secure in our own nation when others are free from tyranny..It is a goal for generations to come..Idealistic and realistic.
Pretty knowledgeable for a guy that can't even spell "speech".
re post 3: what's not to understand? "If you stand for liberty, we'll stand with you". Simple, concise, whatever it takes.
You're an idiot.
