I watched the Daily Show after the inauguration. They ran a counter at the bottom of the screen, counting all the uses of "freedom" and "liberty" during Pres. Bush's speech. Of course they edited it to show just the use of those words, so it was like being bombarded with just those two words. I believe the final tally had the total for the two words up over 100. Freedom won out over liberty. Somehow that reminded me of the Patriot Act, but then I can make loosish associations at times.
But a definite theme to the speech. And the Daily Show's bit was hilarious. I love that show!!!!!!!!
