I fear with the dims in power, W's job is only gonna get tougher. The President's tears at the loss of this brave young Marine are truly heart wrenching.
I really believe that W is doing something that transends politics. Ultimately, because of dealing with life and death since the start of his administration, the dims cannot touch the soul and spirit of the man.
I totally agree.
Ultimately, because of dealing with life and death since the start of his administration, the dims cannot touch the soul and spirit of the man.
And what an incredible spirit the President possesses. Would it be that the dims are correct and all we have to do is leave Iraq and all the world will then share a bottle of Coke and sing that dippy song. But the dims aren't correct and we can't just abandon Iraq.
The President knows it and so did that brave young man that give his life.
I completely agree. This conflict has taught me just how short-sighted, petty, panicky and weak-willed so many of us are—how easily we are swayed by what people think, rather than what we know to be right.
I may not always agree with the President, but I do the vast majority of the time I do and my admiration for his strength, courage, discipline and vision are beyond description. I feel honored to have been given the opportunity to watch him work.
