Bush is saying these nice things to get the Muslim vote? Is that your judgement on this?
It seems to me that the politically expedient thing to do on this is to trash all Muslims. My judgement says that he makes nice because is is the commander in chief of a military that is in the process or reorganizing the Muslim world and he is trying to do it in the most bloodless way possible.
And of course the best way to "reorganize the Muslim world" is by engaging in over-the-top smooching of the posteriors of American Muslims at photo-op royales. This in turn (Ssshhh) will lull of course the rest of "Islam World" into a false sense of camraderie with the infidel President Bush.
