"We'll be deliberate, yet time is not on our side," [Bush] said in one of the most-quoted passages of what became the signature speech of his administration. "I will not wait on events, while dangers gather."...
Yet to some conservatives who backed Mr. Bush's decision in Iraq, "standing by and waiting" is the essence of Mr. Bush's current strategy.
Nicholas Eberstadt of the American Enterprise Institute wrote in The Wall Street Journal after North Korea's missile tests last week that North Korea had achieved more "strategic successes" under the Bush administration than it had under President Clinton.

Don't bother reading any further; the thread is ruined, which I'm sure is the desired outcome.
Disagreement has nothing to do with it -- you're a troll, taking left handed swipes at President Bush while pretending you're a supporter of his.
Very transparent and very rude.
You are as phony as a $3 bill.
I see where this thread is going. Too bad.
Isn't it.
It's a new "breed" of poster.
