I gotta admit, he's got a bigger set of 'em than I've got. That was really slick. I can't wait for the Nightly News to see how this one is reported.

I am in total awe of this man. The Democrats must be choking on their turkey.

Hillary is gonna stroke out.

I just know the Almighty has sent us the very best He had to be our leader.

"Iraq is emerging as perhaps the greatest threat to Bush's re-election in 2004."

On the contrary--President Bush is by far the best leader to wage and win the war against terrorism. The conquest of Iraq was brilliant strategy and a splendid display of courage and leadership.

I love it. When I signed on this AM Hillary's trip was all over my home page. She was shown talking to a female solder. To her the army is a place to conduct social experiments. Her husband did more to reduce the effectiveness of the US army than any president has in modern time. The revulsion I felt when I saw her with the troops made me gag.

Sometimes it seems like nobody knows there is a war. I heard this on the radio, but missed the location. Knew it had to be Iraq.

This sure beats shutting down on-base polling places, election-day "surprise" deployments, neglecting to pick up election mail from ships, and systematically tossing out military votes like the previous president did.

I loved watching the video of the surprised troops when the "messenger" from backstage came out to deliver the President's message.
