After Sept. 11, I made a commitment to the American people: This nation will not wait to be attacked again. We will defend our freedom. We will take the fight to the enemy.

Iraq is the latest battlefield in this war. Many terrorists who kill innocent men, women and children on the streets of Baghdad are followers of the same murderous ideology that took the lives of our citizens in New York and Washington and Pennsylvania. There is only one course of action against them: to defeat them abroad before they attack us at home.

Can I just say that this man is a complete chicken-shit: he still doesn't have the guts to defend his war on its own terms.

Would that we were in the last throes of this idiocy.

It will be interesting to see what sort of bump, if any, he gets out of this in the polls.
