Amen!! We all sit in front of our monitors second guessing, and assuming we know better...based on what we have been told by a dubious press. Remember, we only know what we see on TV or read. Bush has the best minds and most experienced participants in the world to rely on as advisors. If we only knew what he knows, and what burdens he must shoulder, most here would faint at the ramifications. He balances politics, public approval, misdirections to our adversaries, his own personal opinions, Congressional interference, a media that despises him, differing opinions among his inner circle, world opinion, forging alliances with other leaders...all while worrying about our own economy and this little war we have of our own.
We're allowed the luxury of tunnel vision. "By God, if Bush doesn't do this or that on an issue, he's a RINO, sellout, wussy, coward, globalist, NWO'er, money-grubber or..." fill in the blank. It's sickening.
For the first time in 8 years, we have a President we can trust. So trust him. Not all is as it seems; or as it is as reported in the press. His ability to stumble into brilliance is not an accident.
Amen. If we relied on the press reports, we would think that the whole speech was nothing but Bush dressing down Israel.

Thanks for your comments. I am appalled by all the whiners on FR lately. It surely is tunnel vision. You have outlined in one sentence all the concepts, problems and players that Bush has to consider. And then he has to be strong enough not to waver when the criticism starts before he has even finished speaking.
Well said! Thanks.
Well said. I was thinking along similar lines myself and was going to post when I ran accross yours.
It bears repeating.
