I just watched this and thought that it was very well done. The President looked great and was inspiring. I get angry with him from time to time because of the way he's let the left get by him...but all in all he's a helluva guy and I'm damned glad he's our President.

Excellent article ping.

Great post...thanks...Is there someplace from which to order a copy of this program? thx

[still lurking]

Thank you.

I watched the whole thing. Considering Pelley it was very well done. Actually, they were fair to the President.

What a noble and honorable man to have lead us.

[Lorena]

Thanks for the ping! I'm still waiting for it to be shown here.

[Utah Girl]

I am still at work, but I had the foresight to put a tape in my VCR and record it. I can't wait to get home and watch.

I hopw you left it recording to get the President's speech from Ellis Island. Following that is the documentary made by the two french brothers. It is very moving.

[Lorena]

Thank you so much for posting this. Bookmarking!

[WatchOutForSnakes]

I agree with you 100%. It was a very positive piece. I also get mad sometimes when I don't think he is moving fast enough on the war but bottom line, I trust him. He is a sincere man and he is not going to forget what happened. I can't think of anyone I would rather have there right now.

[lysie]

This is a keeper.

Thank UG for the ping.

[Utah Girl]

Yes, I did leave the tape recording until the late news comes on here. I was hoping there would be some other worthwhile documentaries on. Thanks!

I haven't watched this yet, I have it on tape. I want to thank you for posting this. It is one of the best articles I read today..... And I want to emphasize this...

The staff wanted to add a declaration of war but Mr. Bush didn’t think the American people wanted to hear it that night and he was emphatic about that.

Mr. President! You really under-estimate the will of the American People. I really wish that you did add a declaration of war... and I still hope you do now.
It is Justified!

[Consort]

Presidents can't declare war (I think).

[SpottedBeaver]

Presidents can't declare war (I think).

You are right. But they can, sure as hell, ask for a declaration... and get it!

[Howlin]

Thanks for posting this, kiddo!

[SpottedBeaver]

I should add that whenever a President has asked for one, he has gotten a Declaration of War. This should be no exception..... As long as Congress has a pair.....

[MasonGal]

I am so upset because I missed being able to tape the documentary made by those French brothers (on CBS) the first time they showed it (6 months ago - I think) - and then tonight - I was able to tape it - but my silly VCR stopped somehow - and I missed being able to tape the last 15 minutes of it!!!

UGGGH - does anyone have a copy of it I I could purchase from them? PLEASE - Pretty PLEASE?
