We're in agreement again , Keith. Not that he looked bad in the beginning, but definitely stronger in the 2nd half.

It is what it is as stated by W over and over. 'We sincerely thought this madman could develop and use dangerous weapons or let them get in terrorist hands....not gonna' happen as my dad used to say.'

yes, we all know that had another attack happened, and the Al Qaida people had used, say, anthrax, supplied by Hussein, the same people would ask why the President was decisive in using his force to remove Saddam.

Folks, it's ok. He keeps saying that the political season has begun. He knows what he is doing. He is a thoroughbred. You don't start your finishing kick in February.

He is looking forward to BEING PRESIDENT for now, and making his case for re-election to the people most directly after the convention. It's the right way to do things. I think the biggest reason HE, not his advisors, chose to speak now was for the families of the fallen...so they would know why their loved ones were called to this task.

They are democrats who voted! They couldn't care less about anything but winning.
