Here's a fun game to play with the speech. Search through it for tag words. Here's what I came up with:

In one hour and seven minutes of speaking he mentioned the word school 2 times, the word education also 2 times, health 9 times, economy 10 times, children 7 times, mass destruction 4 times, Iraq 22 times, and terrorist 13 times. He was interrupted by applause 77 times.

I watched it for as long as I could take it. Most irritating were all the bootlickers who had to jump to their feet and applaud every time he came to the end of a sentence or paused for breath.
