Obama's Inaugural Speech Is Not Already Written

CBS News reported, a story that Barack Obama's inaugural speech has already been written.

CBS is now reporting that the Obama campaign says the charge is completely false. As Matthew Yglesias says, it's also true that the charge is completely false. Anyone who has heard Senator Obama speak in the last 2 weeks knows; he's not taking anything for granted.

Is It the Speechwriters? The Science Experts? Are there experts?

Sarah Palin, in her first policy speech, disparaged the fruit fly research in "Paris, France", saying, "I kid you not." Unfortunately, fruit fly research has discovered data about nerve connections which may lead to advances in understanding autism, a disorder which her nephew suffers from. While the fruit fly "earmark" Palin referred to was likely one on olive fruit flies which seems more geared to controlling population, discounting, as she did today, "money for fruit flies" is sadly close-minded.
