"or even Nixon"

Funny I was thinking recently that he would be a good man for the times. I think a degree of ruthlessness would be a very good quality in our presidents for the next thirty or forty years.

Nice guys need not apply.

you have a point about a numbing effect.

Of course, the public has been numbed
by the media support for Democrats and
the incessant drum beating against
Bush's war on terror and his approach thereto.

memories need to be refreshed about why
such action has been taken.

One of my first post 9/11 thoughts
was thank God Al Gore
is not President


It's unpopular to take a hard stand in
the world community, but I don't
see how being political wussies
helps us in the long haul.

You have to deal from a position of
strength, with the intestinal fortitude
to back up your words.

When Kerry says that in his first 100
days he'll be apologizing to the world
for the policies of his predecessor,
it sets my teeth on edge.

Why not select the UN head as his
VP and get it over with?
