A great speech, barely recalled

I’m traveling (and comments are off) but I have set up a few automatic posts. Thought it would be interesting to show the speech President Bush made to the Joint Session of Congress on September 20, 2001 - a truly great speech that almost no one remembers and is rarely seen or discussed. Here are some excerpts - more can be found in pieces over at YouTube.

I remember that night and that speech. I remember that there was some sporting event in Philadelphia, and the speech was put up on the jumbotron, and when the players came back to begin the second half, the crowd insisted that the speech be heard to its end, before play could resume.

It’s good to look back at something unfiltered. Full text here, and you can get a fuller video, there, as well.
