thanks for posting the text version. i wanted to watch the news the day he gave it, and it was on every single one of my four channels. i turned the tv off. watching him speak still gives me the willies, despite witnessing a historical moment and such. unfortunately, he has become the embodiment of all that makes me heartsick about America, which all-in-all maybe is not quite fair. so i think im going to read it rather than watch!
I'm a Philosophy professor in and from Memphis, Tennessee, and this site has been my soapbox since 2006.The title of this blog is taken from a list of rules I pass out to my students each semester. It's Rule Number 1.
