<p>Tammy Johnson on <a href="http://www.racewire.org/archives/2009/02/video_addressing_obamas_racial.html" target="_blank">racewire.com</a> talks about her concerns over the use of racially coded language in President Obama&#8217;s address to Congress earlier this week.  Her post has additional comments in addition to the video.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s interesting to take Tammy&#8217;s analysis and compare it to <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/george-lakoff/the-obama-code_b_169580.html" target="_blank">George Lakoff&#8217;s pre-speech assessment</a> of the &#8220;Obama Code,&#8221; his definition of how the President tends to &#8220;express his moral vision indirectly&#8221; &#8211; &#8220;connects with his audience using what cognitive scientists call the &#8216;cognitive unconscious,&#8217; &#8221; and utilizes &#8220;seven deep, insightful, and subtle intellectual moves.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mike Lux also <a href="http://www.openleft.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=11867" target="_blank">weighs in on The Speech</a> saying that the President&#8217;s address could not have been a clearer call for what Mike identifies as the &#8220;Big Change Moment&#8221; in his new book &#8220;<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0470395117?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=progresstrate-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0470395117" target="_blank">The Progressive Revolution: How the Best in America Came to Be</a>.&#8221;</p>
