standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions

TRUE ACCUSATIONS CAN'T BE MATCHED.

THAT IS JUST SUCH A STUPID IGNORANT THING TO SAY.


IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE PRACTICING TO WRITE FOR OBAMA AND LAWRENCE TRIBE..

IF YOU LOOK AT THE ELOQUENT LIES IN THE INAUGURATION SPEECH, YOU CAN SEE WHAT I MEAN. YOU LIE WITH PONDEROUS ELOQUENCE, TO STIR UP FEELINGS. WITH UTTER DISREGARD TO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING.


LOOK AT THESE EXAMPLES. SEE IF THAT DOESN'T GIVE YOU "SOME INSIGHT".


TRUTH COMES BEFORE ELOQUENCE. THESE STATEMENTS BY AN AMERICAN PRESIDENT ARE SHAMEFUL. DISHONEST. ALL MADE FOR ONE PURPOSE, THE STIRRING THRILL OF RHETORIC, WITH ABSOLUTELY NO REGARD FOR CONTENT.

THEY ARE BLATANTLY UNTRUE, INSULTING. IDIOTIC.

But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed.

I DIDN;'T STAND PAT. I DIDN'T PROTECT NARROW INTERESTS OR PUT OFF UNPLEASANT DECISIONS. AND I CERTAINLY DO NOT NEED TO RETURN TO THE TRUTHS OF COURAGE AND FAIR PLAY, TOLERANCE AND CURIOSITY, LOYALTY AND HONESTY AND COURAGE. HOW CAN YOU SAY SUCH THINGS ABOUT AMERICANS, UNLESS YOU JUST MEAN THE BASTARDS THAT RUN THE COUNTRY. BUT I DON'T THINK YOU "MEANT:" ANYTHING. YOU JUST WANTED THE SOARING RHETORIC. FUCK WHO GETS INSULTED. THEY WON'T LISTEN TO THE WORDS OR THE MEANING OR THE INSULTING TONE.

JUST LIKE YOU CHUCK. ALL ELOQUENCE AND RHETORIC GRANDEUR, WHO CARES WHAT IT MEANS AS LONG AS IT SINGS.

CREEP.

Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths.


hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. ARE YOU SAYING I HAVE STRAYED FROM HONESTY. I HAVE DONE NO SUCH THING. ARE YOU SAYING I AM A COWARD, AN UNFAIR PLAYER, INCURIOUS, INTOLERANT. AND LAZY??

IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT. YOU ARE SAYING I STRAYED FROM THESE TRUTHS FROM TOLERANCE AND CURIOSITY, LOYALTY AND COURAGE AND HARD WORK AND NEED TO RETURN TO THESE TRUTHS.

THAT IS A STUPID INSULT. YOU MIGHT AS WELL SAY I WOULD THROW STONES AT A BLIND MAN. IT IS AN INTOLERABLE AND VICIOUS SWIPE AT MY INTEGRITY. HARD WORK. HONESTY??
