Jaguar777's Journal: Just had a thought

A light bulb just turned on in my head. I'm sure this light may have already turned on for some of you, but to me it is currently a blinding light.

Imagine this:
We have the Germans, the French, and the Russians behind us. NATO gave us the full go ahead and said "God speed". The whole world (except for those who want to kill us) is cheering us on. Yet we still have over 1,000 of our own soldiers that have died freeing the Iraqi people.

Bush would be winning by a landslide, and Kerry wouldn't have a leg to stand on. And why? Not because having those things make our actions any more right, or just. They only make our actions more popular.

What is so wrong with some Americans that they cower at the thought of doing the right thing just because somebody disapproves?

Bush is the guy who knocks a bully on his ass when he sees a girl getting beat by the bully. Even though he knows he could get suspended for fighting.

Kerry is the guy who runs to get a teacher, and hopes the girl isn't beat to a pulp by the time he gets back. But hey, at least he didn't have to worry about getting suspended for fighting.
