From the other side of the pond no less. What George W. Bush did thursday night showed the world he was a leader, not a follower. He could of easily passed the buck by saying he would consult with the U.N. and move forward once the coalition actions were approved by the U.N.

Instead...George W. Bush said he would lead the world in this battle against terrorism, with no mention of the U.N. He made unconditional demands with confidence, he made threats that were convincing (Turn over the terrrorist or share in their fate). This is a guy that has faced more obstacles since Novemeber 7th, 2000 than many presidents have faced in a full 4 year term, and he overcame them all. He surrounded himself with the most powerful cabinet this country has ever seen. And as he promised....he has delivered on most, if not all of his campaign promises in just 8 months. And now he is faced with the first attack on American soil since 1812 and he has stepped up to the plate and has shown the world he can lead it. NOT BAD for a guy who was never given a chance!

God Bless America

& God Bless George W. Bush.

[Bush] could have easily passed the buck by saying he would consult with the U.N. and move forward once the coalition actions were approved by the U.N.

Which is exactly the sort of talk that was coming from ex-Clintonistas Warren Christopher, William Cohen, Bill Richardson, and Madeleine Albright as they postured and pontificated on the cable channels within a couple of short hours after the attack last Tuesday. I'm not sure any of them specifically mentioned the U.N., but the clear subtext in all their comments was that they needed to check with the global community to get permission to respond!

Can you imagine if this had happened last year when these people were our policy makers? Thank God we have adults running things now.

Sorry, but the first KNOWN attack was in 1993, by the same Evil MONSTERS!!! It happened at the same World Trade Center, 6 dead 1000 injured. And at that time, these scumbags had prints w/plans to hit buildings with airplanes. Remember, when we had a UnPresident Klintoon, darling of the Leftists..

How short the American memory. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!
