Bush's Gettysburg
From a small town in Pennsylvania, the president came to finally answer critics of an increasingly unpopular war, a war that Democrats hoped would sweep them into office in the next election.
But enough about Lincoln at Gettysburg 142 Novembers ago; let me analyze George Walker Bush's speech today in Tobyhanna, Pa.
Much attention is being given to his blasting the revisionist history of Democrats who supported the war to get by the 2002 election and now cluck their tongues.
Who cares?
WMD were not what this war was -- or is -- about. The president:
"If the peoples of that region are permitted to choose their own destiny, and advance by their own energy and participation of free men and women, then the extremists will be marginalized, and the flow of violent radicalism to the rest of the world will slow and eventually end. By standing for hope and freedom of others, we make our own freedom more secure."
That is it. That in a nutshell is how America will be free: By making sure that all men enjoy the rights to which they were endowed by their Creator.

We will fight it to the end: we will see it through. Weenies, get the hail out of the way.
BTT.
God bless our troops and our veterans.
Wow, was that speech great or what? I was cheering from my living room! Will it shame the left not trying to gain political power off the blood of our troops and those murdered? Probably not. Too many of them are truly evil.
