I think your well-written post might have longer legs had you gone with an apples to apples comparison of presidential speeches commemorating shocking and tragic events. If you're interested, a resource that you might use is the presidential documents archive of UCSB's the American Presidency Project.

Agreed. IMO, that inconsistency adds to the ongoing polarization of today's political climate.
