I thought he hit the exact right note on the speech, especially given the left and government media's reprehensible attempt to blame everyone they detest with absolutely no basis in reality. He should be commended for doing so and I really look forward to him walking the talk in the future.

Having said that, pretty much everything else about the event was weird or inappropriate. It seemed more of a pep rally and political event and I suspect most of that was due to the venue. College students are notoriously insensitive to the setting and I think they were overcome by their emotions and acted inappropriately at best. I also thought it was weird how he was surrounded by members of his administration. Finally, the placement of t-shirts with a political theme was tacky at best but probably just in bad taste.

All in all I am glad he took the tact he took and wish they had been more dignified in the setting.
