But, Bush added, the United States was pursuing a diplomatic solution to the crisis over Iran. In a 21-minute speech to the United Nations General Assembly, Bush directly addressed the people of a number of Middle Eastern countries, saying that the United States wanted to support democratic reforms, defeat extremism and convince them it was not acting against Islam.

I didn't click through to the article yet. Just amazed at that headline. Given what Bush actually said, I figured they'd rip him a new one.
LOL!! MODERATE??/ He was STRONG~~they HATE that.
The Slimes used moderate as to upset the base. What they in fact did was validate Bush's position of using the Security Council as the wedge.
What the Slimes didn't do was drive a wedge into moderate voters and move them over to the left. They inadvertently moved moderate Dems over to Bush which will help Republicans in the fall.
The Pubbies running for office in Novemember better jump on the wagon now.
They can't do that because what he said made too much sense. Ripping him a new one would only make them look ridiculous to the casual observer. My guess is that the msm will continue to, in unison, say that the speech was moderate. This will only be done as a set up. Once they have enough people convinced that he was moderate in his words towards Iran, they will then jump all over him when he decides to take strong action, which is exactly what he has been indicating he will do all along. Then the msm will start with their cries of how he somehow deceived the world by actually doing something. Just my opinion.
I heard President Bush's address on Rush's show today. I didn't get to hear the DemocRAT rebuttal at the U.N. Who did it? Dingy Harry or Dirty Nancy? I'll bet whoever did it, they were a big hit with the Star Wars canteen crowd at the U.N.
