...although not as low as Congress'...
Yet, there is a difference between responsible criticism that aims for success, and defeatism that refuses to acknowledge anything but failure. (Applause.) Hindsight alone is not wisdom, and second-guessing is not a strategy. (Applause.)
I thought this was PERFECT.

Sheehan was taken in handcuffs from the Capitol to police headquarters a few blocks away. Her case was processed as Bush spoke.
Schneider said Sheehan had worn a T-shirt with an anti-war slogan to the speech and covered it up until she took her seat. Police warned her that such displays were not allowed, but she did not respond, the spokeswoman said.
"polls"
I love it: the left has a skewed poll and Bush is "encumbered" by it. Nov 2 was just last year folks - like 3 months ago - that's not enough time for Bush, who won with a majority of voters, to suddenly be scraping in the 30's. That's just stupid.
I think the Democrats are the ones that painted themselves yellow, and Bush said, "Hey look their all yellow!"
Hang in there George...you piss me off on a lot of domestic issues...but you kick ass on terrorism....
They're worse than defeatists... they're unAmerican and some are actually trying to render us a defeat.
"Our country is ready for change and a new direction," Democratic Party head Howard Dean said.And if you could stop spinning for a moment, Howie Baby... what direction would that be?
Please.....when they start polling between 10-15 million people on what they think, then I will start to listen to polls. The 1000 or so people that they sample is a joke. Not worth the time to read the polls.
Keep going, Dubya...don't listen to any of these stupid polls..
He doesn't have to do anything like that
The Dems do a fine job all by themselves
Dems painted THEMSELVES as Defeatists by their OWN ACTIONS last night!! I could not believe the way they acted!!! I think even Joe Schmoe will see them in a different light!!
Because they are! President Bush would throw something out there for them to cheer about, and then turn that enthusiasm around onto them! It was a night of traps and exposure.
