Hillary upstaged Jr.......

He spent a mere 2 1/2 hours at a heavily guarded secret location at the airport....he never ate with the troops...was apparently scared to death to make the trip and didn't take the opportunity to also visit Afghanistan where we also have troops dying.... Hillary visited Kabul for 10 1/2 hours, ate dinner with the troops, and then went to Baghdad and took a walking tour... Who showed more courage???

I can't remember the last time that I felt such pride in our President! I didn't like that President Bush put himself into harms way, but it was great for our soldiers' moral. It was also a good public relations for the Iraqi people, who haven't seen a good leader for decades.

Most of the world's leaders are sitting back, wishing that they had the backbone to do something as courageous and effective as President Bush's nighttime clandestine trip to Iraq.

They were probably just glad that Hillary was out of the country so she couldn't do any harm.
