SOUNDS LIKE BUSH: “Those who’ve feared that President Obama will be a soft touch for tyrants and terrorists can take comfort in his Inaugural Address.”

Plus, a cautionary word for critics: “President Bush’s opponents on the Angry Left often succumbed to a blind hatred for the man and ended up mocking America’s ideals because they loathed the man who was speaking up for them. The Angry Right is susceptible to the same error now. An inauguration is a good opportunity to remember that those ideals belong to all of us, and that they endure regardless of party and personnel.”
