...Gates turns out to be right. Wielding their guns, they enter the designated bunker, Gates holding the cease-fire agreement in front of him like a search warrant, repeating, "In the name of President Bush, and under the terms of the cease fire-agreement, let us through. We are here for your protection and safety." The Iraqis show no fear or hostility, and surround them with pleas for food, medicine and help. This reception is not what they expect, and this scene of the movie, shot with grainy, color-saturated ektachrome film, presents their situation as almost surreal. The walls...
...Yeah, I think I began to think about the United States, and our role in the world in a different way. During the Gulf War, I don't think I supported Bush's decision to stop the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. Now I agree with that. And at the whole time, there was that whole interaction going on, that no one even knew about, with the Iraqi Rebels.

Still, Bush's electoral analysis is right on - that's why he also took a moment to flog Donald Trump for the Reform nod, and bash Buchanan's "revisionist history about WWII" for good measure. What, no words for Warren Beatty? The actor pulled a pretty good Hillary in Hollywood on Wednesday night, talking loud - "Is there no protest anymore?" - but staying mum about...
...coalition that they are being marginalized. This group hasn?t backed a winning candidate or bill in a long time. They?ve lost whatever power they once may have had in the Republican party?s primary process, and things are looking even worse now that George W. Bush has made it clear that he?s not interested in being a vocal member of the anti-abortion movement." This latest attempt to steer themselves back into the center of the national political debate may turn out to be yet another wrong turn...
