I agree that it is a good speech, though I am surprised that he was so political (or is it just two minutes in the speech that the media decided to excerpt rather than policies).

And of course, GD does not seem on board, whining on the weight of a "could" vs "will" and other BS like that.

It always fascinates me to see how little attention the media give to foreign policy. Mass Feb 2013 #13

The Christian Science Monitor article is very good - and as you said Politico's is pretty shallow karynnj Feb 2013 #15

I like your comments regarding Politico. Politico seems to be nothing more than a political tabloid/ wisteria Feb 2013 #17

I suspect that Politico is more comfortable covering politics, not policy - no matter who. karynnj Feb 2013 #18
