#2 Was BO programmed by TOTUS? And what is this new world order? Is that the one where he apologizes for what America stands for and he sucks up to our enemies?

#5 Everyone says the US isn't special, but they're also insistent that _they_ themselves are special. They have a sub-nation they want to be loyal to and patriotic of, but they'll never say that, they'd have to defend it. They're really just another "nation," with more of the faults than usual and none of the virtues, but since they never say they are, they never have to be responsible for their actions.

#7 You have to feel sorry for the graduates. After four years of brutal exams, ruthless discipline, extreme physical conditioning - - - they get to have Obama as their graduation speaker (and boss). Rumor mill had it that the faculty put the word out that they would be taking notes about cadets that didn't clap. Apparently not rigorously enforced as Obama dropped a line from his speech thanking them for their response ...

#8 Read John Hinderaker's take on this speech over at Powerline.

What the WaPo reported versus what was actually in O's speech are 'Not the Same®'. (Surprised?)

#10 "I also remember George Bush promoting democracy around the world. Obama was asleep back then, I guess."

Nothing's changed, except the quality of the accommodations. :-(
