To tell the truth, I don't idolize politicians. I usually don't LIKE politicians, regardless of party or policy. I wasn't sure I'd like Bush when he was elected, but I do now, for his handling of the job under some unbelieveable pressures, any one of which would make most people fold.
That's why I call him a real man today. He's done his job and kept the faith with us through some rough times.

Wonderful article. If recognizing and admiring humility, passion for goodness, effective action, strong leadership, faith in our Creator, on and on and on, passes for idolizing politicians, I'm surely guilty. I'd admire those qualities in the man no matter WHAT house he lived in. I'm just ever grateful he's in the White House.
