He has made some pretty good points, Bush SHOULD have used the Bully Pulpit more often and the speak softly less.

But I am not President Bush, he Probably knows a lot more of what's going on then I do.

So, I will sit tight and trust this great man to do what is right for the country. Because I do trust him, and that is a very different feeling then I had 2 short years ago.

Ditto. I see GW's approach on Iraq being the same as with the Taliban and Afganistan. Make it appear that we are giving them plenty of opportunities to peacefully negotiate a settlement, while putting into place a military force and plan.

Remember how most everyone here was screaming for an imediate invasion of Afganistan and GW kept giving Omar and the Taliban plenty of opportunities to hand over OBL? While all of this brokering was going on GW and our military were putting their formidable military forces in place. When the time was right and Omar continued on his path of refusal, that GW knew would happen, we struck and were victorious.

I see the same type of GW scenario taking place with Iraq and Saddam, when the time is right, all of our military forces in place we will strike and it will be a quick and decisive victory.

Can you please explain to me what you mean by this statement? I hear it regularly, and do not understand what it means.
I am asking sincerely in an effort to learn.

President Bush is speaking forcefully today in Iowa. I will be expectantly waiting to see the TV coverage on the Alphabet new shows tonight!
