>>>"For America," added Bush, "there will be no going back to the era before September the 11th, 2001 -- to false comfort in a dangerous world. We have learned that terrorist attacks are not caused by the use of strength; they are invited by the perception of weakness. And the surest way to avoid attacks on our own people is to engage the enemy where he lives and plans. We are fighting that enemy in Iraq and Afghanistan today so that we do not meet him again on our own streets, in our own cities."

The words of a true leader, who backs up his rhetoric with deeds.

I was given a reminder tonight of 9-11. I watched the last episode of Ken Burns documentary on PBS`s American Experience, about New York and the history of the Twin Towers. It was moving and it angered me all over again.

Doing good JH2. Been spitting fire lately at all the FReepers who've set aside their principles in support of Arnold the liberal RINO. Thank God I don't live in California. Must be something in the water. LOL

Go McClintock!
