"There is something grimly admirable about his stoicism in the face of reverses, which reminds me of other moments in history: the dark winter Washington faced in 1777-78, a time to "try men's souls," as Thomas Paine put it, and the long succession of military failures Lincoln had to bear and explain before he found a commander who could take the cause to victory. There is nothing glamorous about the Bush presidency and nothing exhilarating. It is all hard pounding, as Wellington said of Waterloo, adding: "Let us see who can pound the hardest." Mastering terrorism fired by a religious fanaticism straight from the Dark Ages requires hard pounding of the dullest, most repetitious kind, in which spectacular victories are not to be looked for, and all we can expect are "blood, toil, tears, and sweat." However, something persuades me that Bush — with his grimness and doggedness, his lack of sparkle but his enviable concentration on the central issue — is the president America needs at this difficult time. He has, it seems to me, the moral right to ask American voters to give him the mandate to finish the job he has started. "


This is one of the most fundamental correct paragraph's that I have ever read.

Bush is solid. Bush loves his God, his wife and his country.

Kerry loves himself .

He would lie about anything.

He would slur anybody .

He would use anybody.

He dances on the graves of the dead.

As Lynn Cheney has said. John Kerry is not a good man.

Yeah, but he's WRONG in saying "Bush has no sparkle". He's got plenty and Lefties hate him for it.
