I can't dispute the validity of your point about the tone of my comments. My attack was ad hominem and lacking in substance. Regarding your "factual" points about Bush, his policies may or may not have been the reason why we have not suffered another attack since 9/11, but to state that...

Saw him speak in 1998 - such an understated, powerful and salt-of-the-earth presence.... ...you could literally see the wisdom in his eyes. Miss ya', studs.
