#4 Mr. Obama said the United States "will be steadfast in strengthening those old alliances that have served us so well" while also trying to "build new partnerships and shape stronger international standards and institutions."

Can you imagine being a West Point Cadet and having to sit in this audience and listen to this drivel and these lies, and have to behave civilly???? And realize that he IS your CiC??

#8 Mr. Obama used the same setting to offer a revised doctrine, one that vowed no retreat against American enemies while seeking "national renewal and global leadership."

well, surrender is not technically retreat. the phrase "national renewal" does not necessarily mean that this nation will be renewed. and there will eventually be global leadership, just not from the US on his watch, so no lies that i can see.

#9 PowerLine has a much different take on Obama's speech and concludes that "The Times's account of the speech reflected the obsessions of the reporter and his newspaper, not the reality of what Obama said."
