Carry on Mr. President

Fire of Liberty

I'd have to say that its wonderful to have a a President who says what he says he's going to do and has a steely steadfastness in what he sets out on doing. In a Churchillian/Reaganesque nature, President Bush demonstrated that he's up for the fight when he stated:

America and our friends are in a conflict that demands much of us. It demands the courage of our fighting men and women … it demands the steadfastness of our allies … and it demands the perseverance of our citizens. We accept these burdens — because we know what is at stake. We fight today, because Iraq now carries the hope of freedom in a vital region of the world — and the rise of democracy will be the ultimate triumph over radicalism and terror. And we fight today because terrorists want to attack our country and kill our citizens — and Iraq is where they are making their stand. So we will fight them there — we will fight them across the world — — and we will stay in the fight until the fight is won.

America has done difficult work before. From our desperate fight for independence, to the darkest days of a Civil War, to the hard-fought battles against tyranny in the 20th Century, there were many chances to lose our heart, our nerve, or our way. But Americans have always held firm, because we have always believed in certain truths. We know that if evil is not confronted, it gains in strength and audacity, and returns to strike us again. We know that when the work is hard, the proper response is not retreat, it is courage. And we know that this great ideal of human freedom is entrusted to us in a special way — and that the ideal of liberty is worth defending.

So keep up the fight President Bush, the American people are behind you no matter what the nuts like Wesley Clark, John Kerry and Teddy Kennedy say. Lets continue our fly-paper policy and kill the terrorists over there rather than allowing them to reach our shores.
