You know Bill, I think you're a nice person, but when it comes to this President you and I could not be further apart in our opinions.

We thank God for his leadership EVERY day and we do so OUT LOUD.

What he said tonight with regard to terrorists couldn't be more correct. In fact, it is the epitomy of what has gotten us where we are today. With his leadership and the COURAGE of Americans and our allies, perhaps one day we can live in peace again. Perhaps our children can know a world more like the one I grew up in. They deserve at least that. We are certainly safer today then we were two years ago.

President Bush 9/7/03 "We have learned that terrorist attacks are not caused by the use of strength - they are invited by the perception of weakness..."

We used to know this. Somewhere along the line we forgot it.

To you and to all:

Everyday I have watched this man is another day that I see the remarkable similarities to Abraham Lincoln.

Like Lincoln, he was a national unknown when he came to office and was thought incapable of handling great responsibilities.

Like Lincoln, he has led his country through a series of blows which destroy most leaders and nations-September 11, the war in Afghanistan, the recession of 2001, the Enron debacle, the WorldCom disaster, the Catholic Church scandals, the Columbia disaster, the war in Iraq, the current violence in the Middle East, the tensions concerning North Korea, the uncertainty concerning India and Pakistan.

Throughout all these crises which have shook the foundations of everything we prided ourselves on-our security, our religious institutions, our financial markets, Bush, like Lincoln, has been a calm beacon of unsweving devotion to his God, his country, and his duty.

I thank the Great Power which ever watches over our country for giving such a leader in times like these.

We used to know this. Somewhere along the line we forgot it.

We have had some help in forgetting it, especially lately when so called American servants have been attacking this war on terror for their own political gain putting us all in jeopardy.

I wish the President would have just said that the Clinton administration's policies of appeasement brought us Sept 11th. I know that is what he meant, and they have no qualms about attacking him personally.

Excellent post btw.
