Bu$h: cowardly leader of cowardly country

This demonstrator at the Republican National Convention in New York City 2004 got it right. The "cowardly lion" is from a children's story, the "Wizard of Oz." This one feature Rumsfeld's face.

The "land of the free" and the "home of the brave" ate up George Bush's words backing his pre-emptive strike on Iraq. Survey tested words appeared in his prime-time television speech accepting the nomination of the Republican Party for president:

"'Do I forget the lessons of September 11th and take the word of a madman...

"AUDIENCE: No.

"BUSH: ... or do I take action to defend our country? Faced with that choice, I will defend America every time.'"

There are a lot of "madmen" in this world. There can be continuous war if no one has the courage to wait for the perceived enemy to attack.

The Amerikans are cowardly types who aided I$rael with military and financial aid to attack Arabs and then attacked Iraq with a pre-emptive strike. As usual, they bomb from the air tens of thousands of feet up and then consider themselves honorable warriors. The leaders of Amerika are as cowardly as the Amerikan population. It takes courage to wait for a war instead of launching bombs and it takes courage to protect civil liberties in a capitalist country that boasts day-and-night about those liberties. The reason Kerry co-wrote the "Patriot Act" and Bush signed it and both endorsed the war on Iraq is the same underlying cowardice of the Amerikan population.
