The speech was just one more opportunity for Obama to tell the world what a dirt-bag country the U.S. was prior to his election; to blame Bush for every evil on the globe; to publicly proclaim Islam as "one of the world's great religions," to lie about a new "war tax;" and to patronize American service men and women and profiteer (politically speaking) on their blood. He was a consummate liar during the campaign and he hasn't changed since taking office.
