Speeder it isn't the"PRESENT LEADERSHIP" that is being divisive... its the Political Party that is outa power...the Democrats... wanta be back in the Trough of the Public Treasury at any cost. The Dems are criticizing the Admin for everything they do, without realizing they are lighting their own house on fire.

If U want a shot at the glass of reality...We have a bureaucracy that is mired in proceedure as how to wage a war...this is all fine and good for a conventional war with two powers squaring off in the ring of battle..but we are trying to use a rigid Bureaucractic culture to combat an Amorphic Foe ...the two systems are athema to each other...

The world is beocming more chaotic by the moment ...but remember what I said your damed if you do and damed if you don't in the Middle East...there is no right course of action...the place has ALWAYS been a can of worms that every previous administration has avoided dealing with like the plague. Now Bush is taking the bull by the horns and trying to wrestle with it, to make some kind of sense out of it to protect the SUV Standard of Living in the USA.
