Word count on Obama's national security strategy

WPR piece by Miles E. Taylor that does the usual word count, but does it well.

First off:

More-astute observers have had a difficult time characterizing the strategy document, mainly because it is quite long compared to past national security policy declarations and, in many regards, appears similar to them in substance. But when you drill down into the text, word by word, it becomes clear that the NSS reveals a lot both in what it doesn't say on important subjects, as well as in what it does say on others.

Agreed.  Most such docs are gloriously collections of nouns and modifiers like "interests" and "vital."  This one has all the usual boilerplate in spades, to a mind-numbing degree really.  It has the lawyer's feel all over it.

Now for the what's up and what's down:  American values and democracy and terrorism and actual enemies are down, cyber and education and healthcare are up.

Predominate signal in my mind?  We are healing our nation.  The rest of you please go about your business.

Honest, I guess, but perhaps too much so.
