...most folks in this country will only hear one 5-second media-distilled sound byte, if that

Incredibly, two non-cable TV stations carried the full speech in the Los Angeles area: the local FOX outlet (ch. 11) and ABC (7). Good for them.

As to how msm spins or downplays the speech later, that is a given.

side by side with the JEWISH state of Israel. Ouch, the Pallies are not happy with that one....

They never, ever are nor will be. That's why we repeat it clearly and often.

Some men walked out, Fox put cameras on them. I think it was when President Bush stated he wanted a two state solution, and I think they were Israeli representatives.

I doubt that they were Israelis and/or left because of anything in the President's speech. Can you confirm that they were Israelis or, if not, who they were?

It was a speech for the ages, showing not only a perfect understanding of the Middle East situation and our part in it, but how to move it all forward to where it should be.

It takes awhile after a speech for the full text to materialize. Here is the full speech from the White House website:

Thank you so much for pointing out Griswold. I am very glad and proud to say I have "sent my letter" (of separation) to the Episcopal Church in which I was confirmed 20 years ago.

Imagine what it's like to be a young person living in a country that is not moving toward reform. You're 21 years old, and while your peers in other parts of the world are casting their ballots for the first time, you are powerless to change the course of your government. While your peers in other parts of the world have received educations that prepare them for the opportunities of a global economy, you have been fed propaganda and conspiracy theories that blame others for your country's shortcomings. And everywhere you turn, you hear extremists who tell you that you can escape your misery and regain your dignity through violence and terror and martyrdom. For many across the broader Middle East, this is the dismal choice presented every day.

BAM! Thanks W, I needed to hear you say that.
