More gems from The President's 3-8-05 speech

"...unopposed tyranny, even on far-away continents, could
draw our country into a struggle for our own survival."
Although not particularly inspiring prose, I find clearly-stated truisms to have a meaningful impact at times of conflicted discourse. As Dennis Prager is want to say: "I prefer clarity over agreement". Well, I'd actually enjoy some agreement, as well, but...

"The theory here is straightforward: terrorists are less likely
to endanger our security if they are worried about their own
security. When terrorists spend their days struggling to avoid
death or capture, they are less capable of arming and training
to commit new attacks. We will keep the terrorists on the run,
until they have nowhere left to hide."

Don't you just admire and appreciate clarity and straight-talk?


" The trumpet of freedom has been sounded, and that trumpet never calls retreat."
