Yes, every administration told us that the Middle East is a gigantic can of worms. And, no one ever dares to touch it. The Bushes, senior and junior, are the only presidents in American history to have put an overwhelming American force there to do the right thing. If this is not courage, what is?

One has only to ask, "If the control of Middle East oil fell into the wrong hands, what country would suffer the most"...Bush knows full well, and has done what needed to be done and in the faces of our impotent "friends". The impotency is what galls them the most.

President Bush is energized by touching those "third-rails" of politics, evidently.....Social Security, the Middle East.

Maybe the U.N., as we move along?

These are "third-rails" because that's what the doom-and-gloom Democrats designated them. Republicans are getting vision and spine via President Bush, and we may see a bunch of bogeymen go poof!.
