All I have to say is, first!

He said the same things he's been saying for 3 1/2 years. Terrorists = BAD - we'll keep killin' 'em, Democracy = GOOD - we'll keep spreadin' it. I understood all this when he gave his "Axis of Evil" speech and he hasn't changed anything since. Great speech!

I enjoyed the speech, immensely.

"Complete the Mission!"

I thought the speech demonstrated the President's continued resolve to his beliefs.

Thankfully those beliefs involve killing terrorists!

On a sidenote I got into a discussion with a dumb-ass liberal over at slashdot.org who says 9/11 "wasn't that big a deal" Feel free to make your opinions know to this dumb-tard here

Note: I post as "shadowknot" on /.

I thought the speech was an excellent description of what we've done up to date in the War on Terror and what still needs to be done. I think President Bush made it extremely clear that we weren't just going to do the job halfway. We made a resolution to destroy the terrorists and their supporters, and we're going to follow through. But, the sad part is the people the speech was aimed at (i.e. liberals, democrats, and other idiots) either didn't pay any attention or will try every which way to twist and misconstue President Bush's meaning.

Two words: Bush-bot.

I mean, come on! He's no fun anymore! He doesn't make up words, he uses good grammar, and he doesn't stutter.

Oh well, he's still killin' terrorists dead. That's good enough for me.

Great speech. Very Winston Churchill-ish, without the annoying "NEVuuauuauuh"s.
Very Ronald Reagan-ish, slapped all the Dems' accusations around the room.
In fact, just very George W. Bush-ish.

George Bush spoke the truth, clearly laying out what needs to happen.

The Democrats? Gave themsleves wedgies, whining, pissing, and moaning about hos it's too hard, and repeating the demands of the terrorists - demand a timetable for withdraw. Oh, plus, they're not at all happy we're spending money in Iraq that they could use for things like paying drug addicted single mothers to have more babies, or to think tank other ways to release sexual predators from prisons so that more future upstanding children can be raped and killed.

Guess that's about it.

The soldiers were instructed not to interrupt the speech, but they applauded once besides at the end.

Handshakes all around afterwards.

I didn't get to watch, found a video at whitehouse.gov though if anyone else who missed is interested.

"...but I want to hear my readers' impressions."

Awww, Frank, see, this is why we love you.

:)

Maybe if I record my impressions onto mp3 and podcast them you can hear them. But it's too much trouble since they aren't very good impressions after all. My Nixon sounds like Jimmy Stewart or vice versa (Jimmy, not Martha)...

It was a good speech, I thought it was boring. I think the best part was after the speech watching him shake hands with soldiers. Is it just me, or can you really tell that the soldiers like him? I always got the impression they were tolerating Clinton.

I don't do impressions.
