The mainstream media speaks of Osama Bin Laden with respect, affection and deference. The
Washington Post attribute great military victories to Dracula in his cave and assigns him near great statesman status.
This mass murdering pig gets fabulous worldwide press and our President Bush, working his ass off to fight Radical Islamic extremism, making the hard choices to keep America free, and enacting foreign policy to liberate oppressed peoples living under the boot of totalitarianism for centuries is treated like a pariah. Tearing into his gut at every bump in the road. Teaching political freedom to peoples that have never tasted it, who only know the power of fear, is an enormous challenge. But, what, I ask is the alternative?
You tell me, what is wrong with this picture? And before your answer, imagine it was your mother (or lover, or sister) flinging herself out of the World Trade Center, trading the lesser of horrible deaths.
