When did Bush find this "vision?" He never mentioned it during his campaign. In fact, he didn't mention it until October of 2001 -- after 9/11. I have a vision of dancing sugar plums, or whatever, but that doesn't make a serious position. Another terrorist state is not a vision, it's a terrible mistake.

That's funny. The Twin Towers fell the same day. It just kills some people that President Bush gets the credit for doing the right thing, doesn't it?

it's not really important tha he thought of a good plan, only that he didn't do it before 9/11, right?

For the record, what were saying before 9/11 to offset a terrorist attack on US soil?

Apparently the leadership of Israel does not agree with you.

He is telling them that they can have a state IF they hold elections and remove Arafat, IF they get rid of terrorism, IF they have a transparent and accountable economy.

You are misrepresenting the position of the President, and I would have not expected you to do so.

A terrorist state in Palestine is not possible IF the Palestinians renounce terror and get rid of Hamas, Hezbollah, and the rest. Please re-read the speech.

Gee, Mark, some people who take over the Oval Office actually learn things as they go along. It's calling 'growing.'

And if you think Bush is going to allow a "another terrorist," you, too, have misread this man.
