No, he said no such thing. It's amazing how some folks can read something in plain English and translate it into Martian. You wanted him to say what you claim he did, and you approve of him, therefore in your mind he said exactly what you wanted him to say.

Amazing.

I assume you have retired. It need not be permanent but you are wrong here. There is such a thing known as "diplo-speak" or diplomatic language.

Diplomacy has been defined as saying "Nice doggie" while reaching for a large rock - or was it a large stick? No matter.

In diplomacy, if something is expressed in a straight-forward fashion with no other possible interpretations then its the equivalent of punching the guy in the nose and spitting on him before he gets up.

President Bush delivered a message today. He is not from Mars. We are not from Mars. He didn't say "We all need to get along." He said you're with us or you're with the terrorists. Choose your side. And stop playing games like putting the Sudan on the Human Rights Commisssion while excluding the USA from their historic seat.

Fun and games are over. This is war. Time to break things and kill our enemies. Get it? Good.

Don't know what speech you heard, but stlrocket has it right!

Of course, he didn't use those exact words. Diplomacy is required. However, these were VERY VERY strong words. He was indeed putting certain countries (let's see, Iran and Lebanon, just to name a couple)on notice that we absolutely mean business.
