Ends hourlong speech calling on Americans to set our eyes on the horizon search for an ocean of tomorrows, a sky of tomorrows.

Oh yes he did:
America, we have made it through the worst of yesterday’s winds. And if we find the courage to keep moving forward; if we set our eyes on the horizon, we too will find an ocean of tomorrows, a sky of tomorrows – for America’s people, and for this great country that we love.
Let’s go to the videotape:
Lawdy. “Ocean of tomorrows”? Meet the mockery of today:
Casey Kasem? MT @markknoller: Ends speech calling on us to set our eyes on the horizon search for an ocean of tomorrows, a sky of tomorrows.

We could’ve sworn that’s what he said before:

Teehee!
"Ocean of Tomorrows"? Great, now we're basing economic policy on 1968 Strawberry Alarm Clock albums.

Seriously, how does a speechwriter type "sky full of tomorrows" without bursting into uncontrollable laughter?
