More graphs! More fun!

Speech Wars has tallied the number of times presidents since the late-1700s have said different words in both their inaugural and state of the union speeches. Check out the "word clouds." I found the McCain/Obama election speech comparisons really interesting. Freakonomics introduced this to me. And now I am sort of obsessed. Check out their discoveries. Like the fact that Obama is the first president to ever say "drapes" and "laundry."
