Then I met my first real live fundamentalist Christian, and I understood: there is a huge segment of people in this country that will follow and support Bush literally no matter what he does, because he is an "openly pro-life, good Christian" president.
Didn't he ever say that he admitted his mistakes? I have not heard any.

I would think that he needs to get the opinion of the public first about any such invasion, rather than consult his generals. But I feel he is a stubborn man. I told RHS yesterday that although I am conservative, I can be middle of the road. I feel like voting democratic, and I would vote for Joe Biden. He does not seem to be making such noise though. Maybe that's the way he wants it. Let Hillary and Obama make their noise first.
