Right. Except that Winston Churchill was a fine orator, and GWB often stumbles
over big words & long syllables. Winston Churchill came from an aristocratic
family background, GWB came from a war-profiteering & oil money background, and
is a 3rd generation politician. Churchill was a brave soldier who sought out
heavy fighting, Bush avoided the war in Viet Nam. Churchill was well known for
his witty comments at parties, Bush is a former frat-boy partier now reformed &
a Bible-thumping teetotaller. Churchill inspired his country to fight a
tremendous menace, Bush has enriched his cronies by sending poor & middle-class
sons, brothers, and fathers, to fight an unproven cause... other than the basic
fact that he lied about the cause, which is well proven.

Yeah, Churchill & GWB are much the same Bart.





GWB is tough enough to realize that something has to be done,
while most leaders have been appeasers. GWB was the man to
bring down the Saddam. I think that was a good choice.

If he had waited 6 months more to build a coalition, like Bush Sr did, then I'd
agree. But to alienate our allies and destroy our int'l good will so as to
launch a war for reasons that were a lie, I think was a very very poor choice.
Criminal, in fact!




In the past migrations have resulted in genocide. It is happening
again and either one must chose to tolerate it or chose to stop it.

You have to be either for genocide or against it. What is your choice?

WTF??

Bush is not intervening in any of the current ongoing genocides. AFAIK the U.S.
has no plans to intervene anywhere in Africa or Indonesia.
