"Hundreds of GOP loyalists booed the president "

Those hundreds of GOP loyalists represent a few million GOP loyalists who don't agree with President Bush's pandering to Mexico and illegal immigration. This is America, we have the right to disagree.

You most certainly do. You also have the right to elect Kerry.

But are you sure you really want to?

BTW -- a great article about Rumsfeld and how the War on Terror is planned and fought. Do you think Kerry's Sec. of Defense would be like Rumsfeld?


'This is war,' Rumsfeld told Bush
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1083532/posts

Donald H. Rumsfeld sat in a vault-like room studded with video screens and talked with President Bush as the Pentagon burned.

"This is not a criminal action," the secretary of defense told Bush over a secure line. "This is war."

Rumsfeld's instant declaration of war, previously unreported, took America from the Clinton administration's view that terrorism was a criminal matter to the Bush administration's view that terrorism was a global enemy to be destroyed.

Rumsfeld wanted a war that was fought with ruthless efficiency: special forces, high-tech firepower, a scorecard for killing or capturing terrorists. He had no desire to become the world's jailer. And he refused to be stymied by bureaucracy.

"•The objective is to capture terrorists for interrogation, or if necessary, to kill them, not simply to arrest them in [a] law enforcement exercise.
