When I began this blog in 2001, I was appalled by President Bush's headlong rush to an illegal war (we were not in fact under attack). As time wore on and Bush began his assault on the Constitution and any people bold enough to criticize, I believed that "the republic is endangered more by actions of our own government than by those of any terrorist." With the election of a high-minded, compassionate, intelligent man like Barack Obama, my fears have ceased.

George W. Bush is widely applauded for his inspiring quote: We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail.
Those words have a certain ring to them, don't they? Bush liked them so well he had them put up on his bio page at the State Department (look at the next-to-last paragraph).
Now consider the ring of those words... It's almost as if we had hard them before somewhere.
We shall not fail or falter; we shall not weaken or tire.... Give us the tools and we will finish the job. --Sir Winston Churchill
