Even a sometime-detractor of some of those policies (like me) has to admit that they have worked. Who would have thought in Oct. 2001 that more than 10 years later there would be no major repeat strikes on US soil?
Nothing more needs to be said.

Thumbs down George W. Bush, in Political Exile, says he "Found His Freedom"

It's a very sad commentary on our society that even a small handful of people would listen to a mental midget who was born into a family of multi-millionaires whine about "finding freedom."
