What does your O'Reilly fetish have to do with a) the fact she has already met Bush or b) anything else in the post of mine you quoted?

Bush seems to go on holidays a lot - how much does the average American get? 2 weeks per year?

Except Sheehan denies she ever said that. Is there a verifiable source? According to her, someone got a hold of an actual e-mail she wrote to Nightline and then added the comments about Israel. Considering the outright falsehoods the likes of Drudge have flung at her, I wouldn't be surprised in the least.

presumably ABC knows the truth.

God forbid they have the audacity to demand the troops be allowed to do their job.

War isn't a job. It's a crime against humanity.

And being right hurts her credibility? What does that have to do with the fact her opinion of Bush nose-dived upon learning her son died in a war built on falsehoods if not out right lies. I saw O'Reilly accuse her of lying based on the fact she had a better opinion of Bush after the first meeting. This means no one may ever lose respect for another? Bush went from being just another President at a time of war to a President who lied to get us into a war that took her son.

Well said.

She feels betrayed in the worst way.

Our entire nation has been betrayed. Suckered, lied to. I'm outraged. I can't even imagine what a Mother who lost her son to a lie must feel like.

I'd guess you'd have to actually be in her shoe DinoDoc. But that would actually require empathy.

They can audaciously demand anything they want, even if it is stupid and opposed by the vast majority of Americans. Conversely we can point out the fact that they are delusional and refuse to jump off a cliff with them just because they are so consumed with grief that they can't think straight.

I'm going to miss George Bush when he goes.

No it isn't. Many wars are just and ethical.

"Vast" you say?

Thirty-six percent (36%) give the President good or excellent ratings for handling the situation in Iraq. That is down a point from a month ago and down three from two months ago.

Just 29% now say things will get better in Iraq over the next six months. That's down from 33% a month ago. Forty-eight percent (48%) expect things to get worse. Those figures are the most pessimistic since the January 30 elections in Iraq.

At the beginning of 2005, just 28% of Americans thought the situation in Iraq would get better over the next six month. A Rasmussen Reports survey at the time found that 50% of Americans expected things to get worse.

Thirty-five percent (35%) of Americans believe that, in the long run, the U.S. mission in Iraq will be viewed as a success. Forty-six percent (46%) believe it will be viewed as a failure. Those figures are also more pessimistic than last month.

The vast majority of Americans don't think that pulling out immediately is wise.

pulling out would be insane

And I would be one of them.

I wonder if this is what what it would have been like if Dan Quayle was President.
