I would agree if times were different. Now, there is such a concerted effort to besmirch the Pres. and his admin. on so many fronts yet he doesn't defend himself. It's getting embarrassing and I am frustrated about it. I don't agree with Bush on most of his domestic policy but I am totally behind him on his foreign policy. I just want the "compassionate conservative" to at least look like he's fighting back.

That's my problem. How can you appear strong and resolute to terrorists when you won't lift a finger to defend yourself at home? We are sending the message to the terrorists that we are indeed "a paper tiger". I don't know who is advising Bush to do this (Karl Rove?), but whoever it is needs to go.
