Again, my opponent takes a different approach. In the midst of war, he has called America's allies, quote, a "coalition of the coerced and the bribed." That would be nations like Great Britain, Poland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Denmark, El Salvador (news - web sites), Australia, and others — allies that deserve the respect of all Americans, not the scorn of a politician. I respect every soldier, from every country, who serves beside us in the hard work of history. America is grateful, and America will not forget.

Can someone tell me why he didn't have a prepared remark for a friggin' protester???

Because President Bush doesn't need to go off his message. These protesters want to be noticed. Ignoring them is a slam. Good.

agreed. it shows that he stays the course and does not waver to the nutty left.

I hate to tell you. I'm not really enthaustic about this speech.

Brave post.

Get prepared for a flame or two.

Yet, he's the man. But, why, Dear Lord, an hour of this?

I wish they would bring them to MY house!

I wouldn't want them scum-bags in my house. I'd take them out to the garage. Thats where I keep my power tools.

"Why not make a comment and take them down a peg?"

The only "power" those people have is if/when someone actually acknowledges them.
Disregarding them as the worthless scum that they are is a good psychological tack.
Never forget that he's dealing with people who are like shrieking toddlers.

How? - Some kinda litmus test to show your love for the president before you can get in? This is a convention. People are supposed to come to it.

It doesn't surprise me that a couple people out of tens of thousands managed to get passes.

I'm sure they have thoroughly discussed what to do if he is interrupted. He's right. Don't give them the attention.
