George W. Bush faces battles that he simply MUST win. If he is deserted by his own, he - and we - will be doomed.

We must ALL keep the faith!

Including columnists who describe Bush as having "one knee on the canvas".

Clealry one of the ways the media bring about political loss is by repeatedly describing something as in trouble or losing or unpopular. They make -- or at least try to make -- things unpopular by describing them as such.

It's not just Bush who is in trouble. The Nation is in trouble -- in peril! And articles like this, by personalizing the problem around Bush, strike me as possibly well-meant but not helpful.

At this rate Dubya will never win a third term.

I pray for Bush and the US everyday. We all should.

Two are better off than one, because together they can work more effectively. If one of them falls down, the other can help him up...Two people can resist an attack that would defeat one person alone. A rope made of three cords is hard to break. Ecc 4:9

Wow, a pretty dark post.

Dark because of the stark truth of it.

Perhaps we don't deserve to be saved from ourselves. Life has become so easy for so many of us we can't fathom the sacrifice that may be required to keep it.

I have to say that sending men and women off to battle to be maimed and killed while most belittle him here at home would eat my insides out after five years.

No sane person would want to be President under these conditions.

Neither the elder Bush nor the current President Bush seem to have the courage of conviction held by former President Ronald Reagon. Their undoing, however, is because they are trying to be "nice" to Democrats. They both failed to purge their administrations of operatives who would undo this country. While Clinton ruthlessly purged the elder Bush administration of good hardworking, honest people and replaced them with their own operatives, the current President did not. That action is our undoing. I am keeping the faith, but I am disheartened today.

"is in disarray in Afghanistan, Iraq, even here at home"

Okay, I admit it, I'm stupid. I keep seeing this but I see no disarray, just the usual that happens when you can't fight a war the way a war should be fought (i.e. kill every mother loving one of them in sight, including a boatload of civilians).

What am I missing. How else should the war be prosecuted other than the aforementioned pounding them into the ground?

On April 21, 1836, Santa Anna was sure he had Sam Houston on the run. He was so confident, that he and his troops took a little siesta after lunch, resting up from their long trek to the swamps of San Jacinto before their big attack.
The Mexicans awoke to the Texan cries of, "Remember the Alamo! Remember Goliad!" as they swooped down for the kill. And kill they did, slaughtering the fleeing Mexican troops by the hundreds and capturing Santa Anna as he tried to sneak out of camp.
Of course, that was in the good old days before the UN would have investigated the Texans for "war crimes" and the US and France would have intervened because the Texans were using "disproportional" force. It's really tough to win the WOT with all the breaks going to the terrorists, thanks to Democrat liberal judges, Democrats in Congress and the ACLU. No wonder the President is looking old and beat up.

His bold Bush Doctrine of striking down terror before it shatters us is in disarray in Afghanistan, Iraq, even here at home. His magnificent ambition to plant the seeds of liberty and spread freedom throughout the enslaved world is unraveling.

I stopped there. This guy is just pushing the same crapola lies that we have seen before. Additionally, Bush is a lame duck and I doubt that he really cares how he is perceived by the voters, he has virtually no stake in the next presidential election, he can't run and he's smart enough to know that whatever happens in '08 is going to happen, regardless of what he does.

The Dems have made a large gamble in the belief that they will be taking over at least one of the houses of Congress this election. If you want to see true "disarray", let's prove the Dems wrong - AGAIN!! - and see how '08 shapes up for them.

Even if this guy is a liberal who wrote this, I do agree with him that it is more important than ever to pray for our President. He will have some tough decisions to make in the coming days.

No matter how many times these quacks claim President Bush's policies aren't working doesn't make them right. We haven't been attacked in almost 5 years, cells have been broken up and each of the 3 members of the axes of evil are being dealt with in their own special way. It may not be to everyones liking but the WOT is still going on and we are winning.

WHAT??? This author is delusional. Did he not hear about the bigger than 9/11 terror plot that was uncovered and PREVENTED? If that isn't striking down terror, I don't know what is!

The only terror that President Bush hasn't been able to strike down is the terror we are subjected to EVERY day by the ENEMEDIA and DemocRATS like Murtha!
