I kept thinking, what did he remind me of???... none of the comparisons were hitting the way i felt. Mark Twain, Murrow... etc.
and then it hit me.
He is the guy that walked out in front of those tanks at tiananmen square. Tankman they call him now i think. That was the feeling i had when i watched that speech. Like i was seeing that all over again. A man who had the guts to walk up 5 feet in front of impending doom, and say...
no more.
