I watched SOTU on Fox, and completely agree with your assessments of Williams' reaction. At the time, I was thinking that during the Iraq part of the speech, the building was totally quiet, the Congress obviously paying rapt attention. I was awed...

That's why I remember Juan's comments so clearly...they focused on the part of the speech that I wasn't even thinking of at the moment. Not that I disagree with his comments, mind you, but it just wasn't where my attention was at the moment. I'm certain that he said that he was "moved."

I hope you realize we are witnesses to history. I believe that in 100 years, schoolchildren will be as familiar with passages from these speeches, just as children today can recite from the great speeches of Lincoln, (and much as I hate to admit it)FDR and JFK.

I also was watching FNC and agree with your comment about Williams' reaction to the SOTU speech. However, don't you remember what preceded his comments? He said something akin to, "I don't think many Americans see President Bush as a very compassionate person and I think after this speech tonight they're going to see him in a new light." I thought this was a typical shot coming from Williams.
