I just finished watching the President’s speech in York. It strikes me how very comfortable the President is with the people. When you see him in press conferences or at the State of the Union he always seems uptight. Tonight, he smiled, he was relaxed, he spoke from the heart and he wound the audience up.
The chant was infectious, “Four More Years!”
Before I forget, we should all keep the Iranian people in mind tonight. Today is the annual commeoration of the 1999 crackdown. Protests were scheduled for today despite extreme repressive measures taken by the regime.
It’s a little late lads. Democracy’s got a beachhead next door and as history proves, once we’ve got a beachhead tyranny’s days are numbered.
