i don't believe it is a matter of intestinal fortitude; he has proven himself over and over in making the choices he has.
personally i believe dubya mistakenly believes in turning the other cheek.
of course, he ran out of cheeks long ago.
it is at a point now, where so many mistaken moves are being made, so many lies being told, so many sneaky and vile acts are being taken that lives are at stake in our military. people are being wounded and killed because the terrorists believe we are weak in our resolve and will run tail again, as clinton always did.
but you're right. it is now time to turn over the money changers' tables.
Mind if I borrow that?
As for the original post, some I agree with, some I don't. the line about the kids sent to War struck me as off. However, the gist is that people want the administration to fight back.
I realize some folks will take any opportunity to bash the President. I realize some folks think defense of him in any and all circumstance is necessary and noble because he has so many disadvantages including the MSM. It feels wrong to join in any chorus of discontent.
But I also think some folks on this board have got to face reality. Many people that love this President, respect him, defended him five long years through highs and lows, cheered him, have prayed for him...are not being critical for the sake of it. We're not being critical because we want to take advantage of a low ebb. We're being critical because we sense something we never have before. That the fight is gone. He's off course, and if not corrected, he'll hit that iceberg up ahead.
That was in part what the fuss over Miers concerned. Saving him from himself. He NEEDS to start fighting back. Against Dems, against the RINO's, against the MSM, against the CIA and all trying to sabotage him and this country's well being. I want my President back, I miss him. And if being vocal gets that Texan back on his feet so be it. He listened about Miers, and I'm praying he'll listen now. It's time to Fight back Mr. President. No hold barred.
