More senseless platitudes on how Islam is so loving and peaceful. WAKE UP MR. PRESIDENT!!!

Perhaps you are the one who needs to wake up.

Bush is saying something very practical. The people in the Middle East are not just going to quit Islam because George W. Bush says so. That's just a plain fact. So the question is: how do you work within that constraint and still win the war?

The best way to win is to separate the normal people from the extremists -- give them a choice and opportunity to be "peaceful." The fall of Islam will follow in due time.

And the surest way to lose, is to do things your way, and turn it into a holy war.

OK, here's the exact quote...

" I thank him (the superintendent) for helping to restore the Academy's tradition of honor, which applies to every man and woman, without exception."

Thanks so much for the pine! No satellite since Saturday night and even though it is now fixed, company came during the President's speech. Trying to catch up! Will C-Span be rerunning it?

I saw part of this at lunch. He was in Bush country today and they loved him. I'm hoping C-Span will rerun this tonight.

Thanks for posting the transcript, Ernest. I just got back from lunch and an after-lunch meeting, so this is the first chance I've had to check on the transcript.
