YOU 'see no evidence' that it took courage to stand alone in the middle of Yankee stadium right after New York City had exploded in fire, in chaos and in death?

Correct.

You 'see no evidence' that the leader of the free world, and the leader of this great nation which was under attack had the courage to show the American people that life could and would continue as normally as possible by leading by his own example??

Correct.

You 'see no evidence' that his very presence in the city of New York with the threats against his life took courage??

Correct.

Every time George W. Bush goes out into the public eye he is in danger because we are at WAR.

If that were the case, then doing what he did in NYC was, by definition, not particularly noteworthy for courage.

Or do you 'see no evidence' of THAT either?

We are indeed at war.

There are none so blind as those who will not see.

We know what we saw. We saw our President, less than 3 weeks after Sept 11, stride to that mound, alone and unprotected, wind up and throw a strike to that Yankee catcher. Ask anyone on this board, if they weren't on their knees at that moment, begging God to protect him, and thanking God for instilling in him that sense of calm and courage.

We saw raw courage, we saw a leader, we saw our President, by his actions that night, tell the world that we will not ever give in to our fears and doubts. He told the world by his actions that night, that We are the United States of America, and we will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail.

Thank you God, for blessing us so abundantly with this President.

LOL! You are what can be rightly called ' a piece of work!'

Let's follow your logic, shall we??

If in your humble opinion, our President showed no 'particular' courage by striding out onto that mound shortly after we were attacked (because he is in danger by virtue of his job), then our military, likewise show no 'particular' courage by being in Iraq, because they are in danger by virtue of their jobs, as well.

Correct?

Go away.

Take it somewhere else.

We no longer care what you think and are tired of you interrupting us here.

Buh bye!
