More anti-President Bush garbage. With conservatives attacking our President from all levels who the hell needs the liberals?
This is not so much an attack on the president as it is the reality of the situation. It would be nice to believe that all mankind yearns to be free, but apparently there are still plenty of people out there who are content to be captives of their religion. I don't fault the president for trying. I pray Iraqis will turn away from Islam and seek the freedom of the Christianity. I'm sure the president is praying the same way. Therein lies the hope for success and I remain united with the president in that ideal.
I am a staunch supporter of President Bush, and I actually think we sometimes need to mouth empty platitudes praising Islam when trying to give some of the less deranged Muslims political cover to work with us. But I certainly do not believe any of the pleasant things Pres. Bush says about the lunatic asylum that is called Islam, and I sure hope that on some level he does understand that no Muslim can be trusted to respect or care about the values that we cherish most. If he doesn't know that then he really is naive, and I'm sorry if that statement upsets you. I think George W. Bush is a truly great president, but that doesn't mean he is perfect - Abraham Lincoln and George Washington each had their flaws, too, though almost anyone would count them among our greatest presidents!!
