Bush failed to define our enemy because of our PCness. He failed because our culture tolerates many religions. What he failed to instruct us on was how islamics define religion.

And this is Bush’s Fault. A major failure in leadership.

While I do believe Bush to be culpable. The defense of our liberties places the blame squarely on our shoulders. That is our duty foremost.
Whenever I get angry at the Pres. I just remind myself that Algore was the alternative for 911.
Ignorance of the opposition isn't Bush's fault. There is enough information on the dangers inherent in Islam, that info. has been widely disseminated for centuries.
I wish Bush had stood firmly, but it is what it is. What will we do with the responsibilities we have? That is a valid question for conservatives today.
