I am not exactly sure how to describe this genre of speech but they are the awesome ones that give you cause to smile and remember we're who George Orwell was talking about when he said "Men sleep peacefully in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."

To give an idea, here's my contribution, hope y'all agree:

After all, "We, are Americans" President Ronald Reagan

Or perhaps you don't agree that it's "better red than dead" and you do believe we "have a rendezvous with destiny" and wish to "preserve for our children this the last best hope of man on earth" rather than "sentence them to take the last step into a thousand years of darkness", after all, it "spells duty"? (all quotations are from President Reagan's speech found following this next colon):

Here's one of my favorites, SSG (Join to see). It may not be a speech, but it's very good.

We shall go on to the end.
We shall fight in France.
We shall fight on the seas and oceans.
We shall fight with brave confidence and
great strenght in the air.
We shall defend our island whatever the
cost may be.
We shall on the beaches.
We shall fight on the landing grounds.
We shall fight in the fields and in the streets.
We shall fight in the hills.
We shall never surrender!!!

From Winston Churchill
