Yeah the rest of the world is dishonorable and Bush is honorable. And black is white and up is down.

Only the hard left considers Bush to be anything but honorable. A person can argue that he has been mistaken, but nobody who knows anything about the man would think him "dishonorable".

You guys haven't figured it out yet. The rest of the world has different interests from those of the United States. If you are buddying up to them you're doing something wrong. They're adversaries, in many instances, even our so-called allies.

Still, there is no cause for dishonorable behavior. When the three representatives of the Colonies went to meet with Howe on Staten Island, they refused to accept a volunteer hostage to insure their safety -- on the basis that it would be totally dishonorable. He rode back with them on the boat. World leaders, even on the brink of war, don't behave as you've suggested. Even Baker and Tariq Aziz shook hands as they left their negotiations prior to the Gulf War.
