After all, he's actually worn his country's uniform before.

He's actually worn a flight suit before. They were a little different then, the Air Force ones that he wore a bit less so than the Navy's. AFAIK they wear the same ones now.

[hole_n_one]

Aren't they pathetic?

On the other hand, there was the caller who sounded very young (teens) say that he was tired of hearing people disagree with the President because "he saved our butt from getting blown up".

LOL

[Howlin]

But I wanted to see the purdy pictures.

[Capitalism2003]

FREEP CSPAN! The DU morons are taking over both lines....It's such an obvious attempt from our POV, but MR and Mrs John Q Public may actually believe these are legitimate opinions from NORMAL Americans.

"When the Sink Emperor and his hangers on went to the George Washington, some of Clinton's toadies stole the towels from the heads aboard ship."

When the Sink Emperor visited the troops in Kosovo, they had to turn in all magazines and the firing pins in their weapons before he got there. THAT is one hell of a diference.

[Lauratealeaf]

When we were stationed at Fort Drum right after Clinton was elected, sometime during the Somalia deployment but before the Mogadishu horrors he came to Fort Drum. They had to order troops to go to the rally. I refused to do it although I had to do the calligraphy for the invitations to the locals. I will never forget how disgusted people were who had to go. Clinton nussled up to a goodlooking Colonel's wife to her everlasting disgust in the handshaking line. (she was my bridge partner)

CNN Christiana Amanpour tearing down Bush's speech on CNN!! Why do they still have that American hater on! She is such a nasty woman!

[Howlin]

Kristol on Fox: GWB is averaging one regime change every 9 months.

[nicmarlo]

Have they had dinner yet?...

Don't know; I assume not.

[Utah Girl]

I heard one SUPER WANKER IDIOT call and say we will attract more attacks because we responded to 9-11.

If by a miracle you do get through, be sure to mention that terrorism is at an all time low for the last 30 years. President Bush and his policies has made a real difference.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Now CeCe Connolly is blathering on about domestic issues vs foreign policy costs.

"Blather" says it all.... ; )

[prairiebreeze]

CNN has Christiane on

War slut the best they could come up with 'eh? Figures.

Prairie

Why is CNN still in business

[swheats]

I could only listen for a minute on C-Span, had to turn the channel. They're still waiting for the doom and gloom to happen.

Awesome speech.

Fox is saying if they're no WMD found soon, Bush will have a lot to answer for. Didn't the marines already find mustard gas and Serrin already dumped in the river? Found while testing for drinking water.

You'd think they would connect the dots.

[ohioWfan]

I think there is no one better suited to lead this country, at this time, than George W. Bush. He has given us back the America we once knew..honor, dignity, compassion, liberty.

Thank God that we won the Battle of Florida. We didn't know it at the time, but those who stood for George Bush were fighting the first battle in the War on Terror. If Gore had prevailed, we would be cowering in our homes while Gore placated the terrorists.

Thank God that we were given President Bush.

Amen to every single solitary word you said, Miss Marple! Thank GOD!!

[PJ-Comix]

I find the commentary on the DUmmy Forum to be HILARIOUS. Here is one typical DUmmy comment on Bush's speech on the Lincoln:

Please don't watch

They are probably running subliminal messages beneath the broadcast to 'suck you in."

[JustPiper]

There is just no reason to watch MSNBC in my opinion. Just bad for a normal person's health.

I never miss Scarborough at 9pm EST, the only conservative MSNBC has to be proud of!!!

[PoisedWoman]

carrier landing, saying it was a brilliant bit of political theater. They said it was a pure homerun.

Yes it was. But I'll bet that Dubya wanted to do it for the pure fun of it...one of the perks of being prez.

[floriduh voter]

Thank God for the blessing in the form of President Bush. I am so grateful and always impressed. I'm proud to be in Florida where we held on for that month and a half. Thank God for the democrat attorneys and judges who followed the rule of law. The Gore dems tried hard to cut the military out. NEVER AGAIN.

[swheats]

Who's next? France.
