From [the Curmudgeon](http://theconstructivecurmudgeon.blogspot.com/) I received word of an [excellent speech](http://www.hillsdale.edu/imprimis/) on preemptive war, nation building, and American idealism that is very well worth the read. It was both inspiring and wise.
The odd thing though, is that whatever his intended effect, the general impression I received had little to do with the content of his speech.
Man, I thought, if only *I* could do that with the *gospel*!
