I was disappointed more of Bush’s speech wasn’t highlighted in the press. I had to seek out an online video to hear more than the single line that seemed to capture all the headlines. Although I cheered when he slapped down the appeasers among us, there was so much more to the speech. As a Christian and supporter of Israel, I was deeply touched. My feelings were bittersweet when Bush said this at the end:
“And you have built a mighty democracy that will endure forever and can always count on the United States of America to be at your side. God bless.”
I hope Israel can continue to count on the U.S. after the next election. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out Obama’s true feelings about Israel.
The press NEVER covers THIS President! I always GO HERE to read exactly what President Bush says, in it's entirety and watch the complete videos when available. The thunderous applause for President Bush speaks volumes.
