Thank you for the one of the more resaonable posts you've written in awhile.

>"personal flaws that create personal and subsequently national vulnerability is where the public must be the most concerned."

And that's why we liberals and now half the conservatives are in an uproar because of the way Bush is handling this administration. They see his personal flaws that have created our national vulnerability.
Who feels safer? All we can see is the escalation of a war and the hatred from the people we went in there to "serve and protect".
(with the likes of Abu Garhaib).

You have YET to admit that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and that the Project for the New American Century was on the drawing boards and that 9/11 gave us a convenient opening to implement it. You have yet to acknowledge that Bush made a mistake going in there, that he lied to the American people, that he said the "Mission was accomplished" and that he was resting on his laurels while new Orleans sank. (And that's just for starters)
