The "Bush Doctrine" Is Alive And Well

He has not wavered in his stance against terrorism, regardless of what the pundits, the media or even you say. We do not know what is going on behind the scenes, but I trust that Benjamin Netanyahu was telling the truth when said he has confidence in the President's 'bold and courageous leadership' and his 'moral clarity' in the war on terrorism.

Somehow I think he knows more about what President Bush is doing than you do, unless you have been part of intelligence briefings, or involved in personal conversations with him......you haven't, have you?

The President is a man of principle and conviction. He knows that the war on terror is the calling of our time, and that he must lead. You should be thankful that a man of courage and character is leading this country, and the world, instead of nitpicking from your armchair.

A typical response from you, you are pathetic, uninformed and ignorant

He has not wavered in his stance against terrorism...

The terrorists came from SA.  Nothing happened to the Saudis.
The PLA are terrorists, but Israel was told to live with it, then not.

You are in deep denial.

[ohioWfan]

No. I'm in agreement that the situation in the Middle East is different because of the presence of Israel. Donald Rumsfeld was on Rush Limbaugh today, and he made statements to that effect.

The President has stated repeatedly that this war on terrorism will take a long time. It's not all going to be fought at once, as you apparently want it to be.

You mistake deliberate, thoughtful action as inaction because of your own personal impatience. When all is said and done you will be proven wrong.

You imply I have predicted something. I have not.  The wavering
in the face of calling a spade a spade, especially in the face of the
'with us or against us' dichotomy has already occurred.  That is not a
prediction, but an observation.

[ohioWfan]

That is not a prediction, but an observation.

An observation based on your own personal interpretation of what is being done, and made without the benefit of knowing what is going on behind the scenes. Not enough time has passed in this war for you to draw conclusions on whether or not any 'wavering' is being done.

[gcruse]

Wavering is a demonstrable activity. And it has taken place. This discussion is turning into the global warming controversy. I record global warming as a fact. You deny it is caused by human activity. I am talking what. You are dealing in why. Never gonna resolve.

thanks, I guess I shouldn't expect him to reveal what he may have said or heard in a conversation with the President. His confidence in the President is interesting to me. Not that I'm not confident, but it just seems he now knows something he didn't before. Bibi is a straight shooter and I like the fact he thinks so highly of President Bush. Thanks again for responding.

Well, right there is your problem!
