'God-drenched' speech is second nature to born-again Bush
Julian Borger in Washington
Saturday January 22, 2005
The Guardian
George Bush's speechwriter Michael Gerson suffered a mild heart attack
while working on Thursday's inaugural address, and its
fire-and-brimstone rhetoric seems to have been aimed at having the same
effect on some of the world's leaders.
The declaration of an American mission to spread liberty around the
world, combined with the religious rhetoric in which it was couched,
gave the speech a scarily messianic flavour to many ears, and not just
foreign ones.
