Bush Fatigue

Peggy Noonan nails it. Check out her latest column American Grit.

You only need to read the first few paragraphs, but the bottom line is: if Peggy Noonan is turning on "W" - it's getting bad.

I have been feeling more and more an annoying indifference to "W". We really don't seem out to win the war in Iraq but rather to manage a conflict. The politics of war and diplomacy have shifted soft in the last 100 years so much now that we as a country are afraid to do the hard and dirty work that must be done to defeat this incessant enemy.

America's new rules of engagment appear to be more interested in asking the terrorists if it was childhood trauma that caused their meanness. We are afraid of inflicting a Blitzkrieg and our brave soldiers are paying the price.

Fred Thompson for President!

My gut instincts tell me this is the man. I have heard all the other 10 Republican candidates and they all sound like pretenders.

The top three pretenders all have major issues that dissqualify them from my vote. Fred is the only guys that isn't going to take any liberal manure from the left.

Sic em- Fred!

Islam - Religion of Peace

One in four younger U.S. Muslims say suicide bombings to defend their religion are acceptable at least in some circumstances...

Telephone interviews were conducted with 1,050 Muslim adults from January through April, including in Arabic, Urdu and Farsi. Subjects were chosen at random, from a separate list of households including some with Muslim-sounding names, and from Muslim households that had answered previous surveys.
The margin of sampling error was plus or minus 5 percentage points.
