Isn't President Bush allowed his first ammendment rights to express his beliefs regarding a tough stance on terrorism, and declaring appeasement a failure? Democrat overreaction nd hurt feelings makes one think the President touched a nerve. Do they subconsciuosly believe themselves weak?
Rather than wasting energy acting apalled, even though he didn't mention Democrats and cited a former Republican Senator, Democrats should spend their time declaring why their policy of immediate "musical chairs" troop withdrawal (they would redeploy if needed making one wonder "why withdraw in the first place?") is the better option.
Democrats should talk about Bush's appeasement of Oil companies and pharmeceuticals, of catering to the wealthy over the middle class, and of a war plan that has been a failure and has not captured Osama Bin Laden. They should point out he chose war time tax cuts rather than fund bomb resistant vehicles, body armor and additional troops so this conflict could have been done by now.
They should also note that his tough talk took place in Israel, because any other country wouldn't accept this position for a war that has gone on too long.
Advice to Democrats: stop being so sensitive.
