 "That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet."
Indeed Mr. President, you have depicted exactly the actual state of things. Just one remark: you are becaming a little to aggressive and the American administration proves once again that is reluctant to any profound change. You have to stand tall and ferm in order to change a few people there who are well stuck on their paranoia of seeing enemies around them, their constant struggle of seeking adversaries that we been used to under the Bush administration.
