I am very proud that President Bush has changed the tone of war, despite the rantings of the socialist/communist protesters.

Now, there is pride in our military, and there is pride in winning.

There is pride in the good ol' USA!

However, 44 members on the Lincoln's crew missed the president's speech, although for a patriotic reason: to take their citizenship oaths. The sailors were naturalized yesterday in a ceremony at the Cabrillo National Monument in San Diego thanks to an executive order that Mr. Bush signed in July to end a three-year wait required for members of the military.

San Diego news showed this ceremony, on the tip of Pt. Loma, the southwestern tip of the continental US. The reporters said that WH staff sent along sentiments to the new citizens and was previously scheduled to attend the event but was forced to miss due to timing of other events.
