The RNC better grow a pair if they want the checks to keep coming in!

[Max7]

Excellent speech. Maybe you should apply for the job of one of his speechwriters, although that would probably never work. You're too honest......

[Sisku Hanne]

Love of Freedom is the Mightiest Force in History. Love of Freedom will prevail.

[bray]

The Freedom President is hitting the Rats right tween their beedy little eyes!!

Pray for W and Our Troops

[Deo volente]

The only disappointment so far is his quoting the one line in the Koran that says "Be nice".

Let's have the president read the 10,000 lines that say the opposite.

[tioga]

And God Bless OUR President. What a speech!

[MamaB]

I am listening to it on our local station that carries Rush.

[EDINVA]

probably his longest speech ever! loved every word.

[Mo1]

I couldn't agree with you more, but the RNC doesn't seem to have enough guts to do it.

I guess you missed the ads during the 2004 election?

[mainepatsfan]

Force the MSM to show him every night slamming the Dems.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Welcome back, Mr. President!

[McGruff]

It's over now.

[mainepatsfan]

That was his best speech since the address before congress after 9/11.

[Calpernia]

WOO HOO!

[Marine Inspector]

LOL, just got my sound on the Rush show and the speach is over.

[Peach]

LOL.

In all honesty, this speech should have been given a year ago. He's let the lies continue for so long that they've percolated into the American consciousness. Some people will never change their minds now. Morale for the troops has been hurt and hurt badly.

I do NOT understand the reluctance not to take to the airwaves and defend the policies of the administration, the war and condemn the lies on the left. It's a form of insanity, imo.

I wish I could but I have to remain open to people who need me. No big deal - I'm sure a transcript will be printed up on the WH website! I'm happy to have Free Republic for a good play by Play! :-)

YAHOO! GREAT SPEECH!

[Solson]

As long as he stays on the offensive. If this speech is it, it won't be enough. A great start...but not enough. Keep fighting W!

[Great Caesars Ghost]

That time he said "There you go again" to Carter was one of the only times I ever heard him address an opponent directly. It was one reason he was so teflon, he never seemed to be able to hear the criticism. People said he must be deaf.
