I also hear his words of hope and welcome. Though I'm still a little confused about "victory", I'll post his words.
Let's hope, let's see.

DTS, who do you think actually wrote this for him? Karen Hughes?

When he starts a speech with, "Now that my daughters have taken my advice and enlisted in the military" I'll be interested in listening to him talk about sacrifice.

Interesting to read in terms of what he wants. If he couldn't get a line-item veto with a Repub congress, I don't know why he thinks the Dems will give him one.

GR,
I dunno who wrote it. I just posted it so that others might see that I also listen to what he says, or rather, what his name is attached to.
Just trying to be "fair and balanced", ya know.
We'll see.

Interesting how he's trying to rephrase "tax cuts" as "tax relief." I imagine all politicians do that- try to package old ideas in new outfits.

Well, some things have indeed been redefined, and probably more will be.
Words sometimes lose meaning when they are left to the "guessing".
I've gone with these ones, "actions speak louder than words."
That's why I say, let's see.
