"So now we come to the earthquake of Iraq, and the divide
has become a gaping abyss. Yes, there is real controversy
over troop levels, the mission and purpose of our stay,
and the costs of reconstructing Iraq. But behind the
conundrum rest very, very different views of what the West
and indeed the world should be. This fight for the future
of Iraq is turning out to be for more than a referendum on
democracy in the Middle East, but rather a trial of our
own culture here at home."

I believe this to my core. But i am communist at heart.<g> Remember when the commies entered into united front alliances with progressive forces. We need to do that too. The Republican tent has shrunk with this president. We need to concentrate on bringing folks back or new folks in, not to the republican camp or conservative ideology but back to Bush. There is a common interest here which consumes some of us but is under the surface with some of those folks and that the gnawing feeling that kerry would do exactly what he says he would do when the next crisis hit--and that's invite Koffi Annan, Jacques Chirac and Hillary into the WH to tell him what to do.
So most people in the nation think our iraq policy is broken and many of those supported and still support the war in iraq. How to get them back and see bush again as a strong leader on the WOT and the economy. Well i guess i wont guess rummys head today but perhaps a forceful statement from the President not on porn pics but on how we will adjust policy going forward to take into account whats different than we thought in iraq and how we will correct policy. Best way to bang kerry is to bring back the perception of bush as leader. Now we should be able to agree on that point unless you dont want the votes of less than true believers. (g) (For example remember reagans blue collar catholic democrats). Pro-America folks needed but also dont throw away the intelligent independents who are offended by pure anti-kerry in vietnam campaign. Mike
