Do you think that politicians don't take the negative comments as personally as we do? B/c so many of them come out and say garbage about Bush and then like CArter show up at the White House for a function or like Lieberman show up for events. By the way why was little Joe there?

He probably was kissing up to the President. After the way he has been trashing Bush he might be worried about Bush turning the Justice Department loose on him.

Well, I think politicians expect a certain amount of mud. I also think that President Bush is an expert in "turning the other cheek."

For those of us in the trenches it is very hard, as we take this stuff personally. President Bush has to rise abotve it, because he is charged with running the country and bringing people together in order to fight the war.

I must admit, I couldn't do it. Lieberman would be a grease spot in the parking lot, if I were in charge.

President Bush is a good and decent man. God bless him!
