What an article! Thanks for posting. This President is an amazing, compassionate man.

Bump for more to read.

The events of the last week have so snowballed in the last 3 days, I can not get thru all of the posts.

Overcome with emotion right now, reading this article.
I will need to stop reading, and go do something else.
As an active duty Marine mother, thank you all-
I don't know what I'd have done these past three days without you.

Wow, I cannot believe Newsweek publishing an impartial and insightful story on President Bush.

Maybe the Lord was trying to soften her hardened heart by putting it in the President's mind to touch her in that way

That's exactly what I thought when I read that.

I'm going to pray harder than ever for our president, the emotional toll of these meetings have to be horrendous, yet he continues.

Newsweak must be trying to "buy" redemption for its earlier Goebles efforts (remember they had to dump one issue this year to save money because of circulation problems).

Newsweak sees the writing on the wall that the Sheehan story is sinking very fast. Rats leaving a sinking ship.

Agreed. Newsweek must be hemorraging subscribers after that Koran-in-the-toilet fiasco.

And advertisers. In fact, due to the low number of advertising pages, they consolidated two of their weekly issues this August into one.

I rated it and when I went back it was still on five, but the numbers had raised.

Atta in Prague is old news, but never proven....supposedly no one believes the intel. There is a blurb about this in Stephen Haye's book 'the connection'

Newsweek worried about circulation?

But bump-worthy regardless of motivation.

Extraordinarily pro-Bush story from Newsweek

Betcha something additional about Sheehan and/or her handlers is about to break and the rag wants to distance itself from Sheehan.

What I'm trying to get at is whether Weldon or anyone else has said that Able Danger puts Atta in Prague.

Those musings occurred to me - that young Casey found a different set of values from his biological mother.

He clearly was a son of Freedom and I honor his sense of duty, honor, Country and his ultimate sacrifice.

and what a great idea - to knight yourself;);):)

What more can break? The woman has been exposed as a nutjob, a liar, a fraud, and a willing tool of the America-hating, terrorist-sympathizing radical Left.

"Why don't they ever blame the people who actually killed their son? "

that would be too easy.

My sons a MARINE, God forbid he should pay th eultimate price, but I garantee you I know who'd I blame!

I'd start with the likes of Traitor Kerry, Drunken kennedy Hanoi Jane, Michael "I'm too fat to walk" Moore and all the other traitors to our country. I know I'd be the first to step over the "PC" line and profile the He77 out of who the real enemy is.

but that's just me.

"Casey found a different set of values from his biological mother"

In death he stands head and shoulders taller than his nut-job mom will ever in her life.

Thanks Peach, we've been wondering about that.

Off topic:

This article states that apparently Able Danger puts Atta in Prague with an Iraqi intel officer.

I hadn't heard that before; has anyone else heard this?

"My sons a MARINE"

I thank you - and the millions of other parents who support the self-sacrificing, heroic and patriotic decisions of their sons and daughters.

We are forever in their debt and yours.
