A better, more substantive speech

It's with undivided attention that I watched President Obama's speech yesterday. While I would have liked him to be more specific with regards to Bahrain and Saudi Arabia by placing them in the “bad guys” camp, I was pleased to finally hear him clarify his administration's position over using the 1967 Israeli-Palestinian borders, as a basis for a peace agreement.
