I wouldn’t want a president that runs the country on public opinion or for that matter world opinion. I also would not want a president that did not pray for wisdom. Radical Islam is calling for Jihad, do you understand what that means? They hate the freedom, because freedom is the greatest threat to them. These terrorist are in every country in the world, and want to take over the world and popular opinion would allow that. I will admit that I have never had the opportunity to live in a country where freedom is not a way of life. I have heard of people who join terrorist organization, but I have never heard of anyone that will leave their freedom behind immigrate to a county where freedom is not even a word. To many people have died in the world because of the terrorist, popular opinion would sooner bury their heads in the sand and continue to ignore people with no voice. Get off the fence you can’t have it both ways, you have to choose freedom or certain death.

If it weren,t Bush and Blair it would be their replacements. It is easy to be in opposition and criticise but once in power you have to face up to your responsibilities and act on the evidence presented to you by your advisors. You can't do anything else.
Thank goodness our leaders have the courage to act upon the threats that we all face.
Of course the general public not party to the evidence that is presented to our leaders usually swallow the "facts" as presented by the media. We can't do anything else because what else can we go on.
We all have a responsibilty to preserve our freedom against terrorists who desire to impose their ideas on us.

"I also would not want a president that did not pray for wisdom."
unfortunately, the state is supposed to secular and unconnected to religion, (at least in the UK - we don't have "In God we trust") otherwise it doesn't serve the MAJORITY of the people that live here, who are broadly secular or following faiths other than christianity.
"you have to choose freedom or certain death."
stop watching the news and get out more - there is no certainty of death by terrorist action, and the threat in the UK is actually not much higher than days of the IRA bombing train-stations. The only way to manage civility between the west and nations which breed terrorists (although the west is the main contributer of dissatisfied fundamentalsts anyway) is to abandon religious dogma and differences and concentrate on the fact that all these people demonised by the west are actually after the same thing as us.

If you think what the US has now is freedom you might want to do a little more research. Our Founding Fathers would have been aghast at what we have done with their revolution.
There is little I have heard from the edicts of fundamentalist Islam that I have not heard, at some time or form or another in history, from fundamentalist Christians.

Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction." - Blaise Pascal (Pensees, 1670)
Good intentions will always be pleaded for any assumption of power. The Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters ... but they mean to be masters." -- Daniel Webster

hey, you have your opinion and you're entitled to it. I have a different opinion and I am entitled to that. From your statements it is unlikely our opinions will reconcile.
One item: please consider that what you call freedom might not be what other people call freedom. For instance, you in the US like to go on about your freedom and how free you are but from where I stand (the Netherlands) you are not so free at all. In fact, your freedom is under more stress than ever and the danger doesn't come from the terrorists.

the really reason Bush and Cheney and Blair are literally not earlier the global courtroom of Justice is that the U. S. is the only global skill and may want to is skill and may want to is ideal. even as respected global jurists are divided on the priority of duvet they're only about unanimous in agreeing that sufficient reason exists to carry prices of crimes hostile to humanity hostile to them .Even this received't take position.. some years lower back a heroic Spanish choose issued an arrest warrant for the butchering A.Pinochet of Chile for crimes hostile to humanity he with CIA help perpetrated contained in the overthrowing of the Chilean Allende democratic authorities He change into arrested in Britain and held even as the courts dealt with the priority.contained in the suitable the courtroom determined that because of extremely undesirable well being Pinochet must be released and he change into. This very ill Pinochet then went on to stay many extra years of energetic existence in Chie. How did this take position ?? the U. S. because of this is partnership with this mass assassin did not desire Pinochet to bypass to trial the position the full US complicity might want to be uncovered so it pressred tge British authorities to launch Pinochet. the global's maximum well known warfare crimes criminal is clearly Henry Kissinger .diverse tries to arrest and or question him in France,Belgium and different international places were twarted by the U. S. authorities and contained with regards to Belgium they were instructed that NATO headquarters might want to be moved out of Belgium if the tries to arrest Kissinger did not end.They did .

Because I back freedom, I don't back President Bullshit and PM Tonica Blairinsky. Yes, Radical Islam, such as the one which exists in Muslimanija (Islamic Bosnia), calls for Jihad, like the NATO Jihad in 1995, 1999 (and also in 1994, against moderate Muslims who rebelled against the fanatic Islamic regime of Izetbegovic, as mentioned in "Hidden Agenda-US/NATO in the Balkans").

wait, jihad (one of the 5 pillars of Islam) is supposed to be defense of Islam, but this can be interpreted as kill anyone who isn't Muslim. People get it through your heads, they are willing to go to the extent of suicide bombings, or basically they hate us so much, they would rather die than leave us alive. That's not really a problem that you can ignore and hope it will go away!

Hard to tell the difference between Muslim fundies and Christian fundies.
You swallow the propaganda whole and then preach the same simple solutions.
If you don't believe what I believe then I'll kill you.
Thank you, Lord, for the seperation of church and state.
god bless allah
