I may get shouted down for saying this, but I don't like these stories about the president crying. The family does not help him by sharing this intimate detail. It may or may not be unpresidential to cry in these circumstances. But it is unpresidential to be known by the American people, and our enemies, to have cried over one dead man.

When a man sheds a tear over his own pain, it is weakness and self pity. When he shed a tear over anothers pain, it is a sign of strength and compassion.
A real man is not ashamed to cry over anothers pain. President Bush is a man.

Emmett MacKenzie, a 75-year-old Korean War veteran, said Bush reassured them that there would be no pullout of troops until Iraqis could provide their own security.
"He said we wouldn't quit, and we told him we didn't want to quit until the job was done," Emmett MacKenzie said. "We want to continue, and we're behind him 100 percent."Take that Momma Sheehan and your cadre of hate-America surrender monkeys.

This president doesn't use fake emotions to manipulate the public. It's good to know that he really feels and emotes with those who have suffered loses in defense of the nation and civilized society. He is not the rampaging robot the MSM press and Left portrays him as.
This nation is locked in a struggle for survival against terror. Our losses have been relatively few, but deeply felt nonetheless.

There it is. You do not see families like this sitting in a ditch and stalking the POS. You see courage and dignity.
