Speaking of speeches, I just bought a little book entitled "Our Mission and Our Moment." It has a picture of W holding up the policeman's badge and it is the full text of his address to Congress on September 20, 2001. It has a timeline of events from 9/11 to 9/20/01.
Here's a bit from the publisher:
President George W. Bush's address to the nation on September 20, 2001 has become one of those speeches that even while you are listening to it, you know will immediately impact the lives of hundreds of millions of people all over the world. Politics bowed to leadership.
I've got goosebumps.
So true .. when he gets that tune and gives speeches like the one today .. WOW .. he is good
