George Bush is Gary Cooper in the classic western "High Noon." The sheriff is about to leave office when a marauding gang is coming to town. He could leave, but he waits to face the killers as all his friends and all the townspeople, who supported him during his years of keeping them safe, slowly abandon him. In the end, he walks alone to meet the killers, because someone has to.

There wasn't a major al-Qaida attack in 2003. Nor in 2004, 2005, 2006 or 2007. Manifestly, liberals thought there would be: They announced a standard of success that they expected Bush to fail.
As Bush has said, we have to be right 100 percent of the time, the terrorists only have to be right one time. Bush has been right 100 percent of the time for seven years -- so much so that Americans have completely forgotten about the threat of Islamic terrorism.

Excellent. Nobody can beat Ann Coulter...
Excellent. Everytime I get angry at Bush for his tepid domestic policies, I force myself to remember what a great leader he is on defense, foreign policy and anti-terrorism.
I thought it was Mussolini that made the trains run on time.
a must read...just for the ending alone

W did his duty. He will be rewarded.

I understand your point. All libs love mass-transit for the massess of asses that have to be lead around by the nose. It’s confusing trying to keep track of the miniscule differences between all the socialists out there.
Yes, I believe he will be vindicated, too. He has so many good qualities and he’s a man of good character and integrity.
"Coincidentally, [my wife] and I were in Miami last week, and ended up striking a conversation with an older Cuban couple in the next table. When it emerged that they came from Cuba in 1960, I said: "Right after Fidel." The guy did not miss a beat before responding: "Yes, we know what "change' looks like."
Nah. He just adjusted the schedules to match the trains.
The German trains always ran on time. They’re German, for goodness sake. Teutonic precision, clockwork, and all that.
So might as well attribute it to Hitler too...
Agree samtheman, and would add Justices Roberts and Alito.
It worries me when I’m in Italy if a train is exactly on schedule. Is this a sign that fascism is returning?
Hitler didn’t need to make the trains run on time.
German trains ALWAYS ran on time.
Italian trains didn’t until Musso came along.
