Donuel: Ronald Reagan was the "Great Communicator." I assume you are under the impression that he was a great intellectual too. Right? One of your favorite presidents I'll bet.

Bush is no dumbo, but I've said that so often on these threads I realize there is no point in saying it anymore. Even your (read Democrat) party's senate and house leadership has publically acknowledged that they are impressed with Bush's leadership abilities in this crisis. Of course you detractors demand more. How about your hero, William Jefferson Clinton?

His way of handling the terriorists (and there certainly was a lot of terrioristic activities on his watch) was to get in trouble, and in order to detract the press from his current problem (read skirts) he'd toss a missile wildly at them and blow up a pharmaceutical plant.

But he sure made a good speech!

I'm amazed so much attention has been given to the "title" of this campaign. Who really gives a tinker's damn what it's called? Maybe we should have a nationwide contest to see what it should be called! Then those of you with better ideas could communicate them to the Defense Department. I'm sure they would be happy to receive your suggestions. After all, they don't have much else to occupy their time these days.
