E Pluribus Unum

"We're in this grand ideological struggle," said the President two days later. "I am in disbelief that people don't take these people seriously." He was sitting in the Oval Office with a handful of columnists including yours truly. At the risk of making that C-SPAN caller's head explode, it was a great honor. I wasn't the only foreigner in the room: there was a bust of Winston Churchill, along with those of Lincoln and Eisenhower. A war president, a war prime minister, a war general.

First of all, I stand corrected: Bush is more clueless than Steyn. "I am in disbelief that people don't take these people seriously."

Really? Could it be because you have NO CREDIBILITY left? Not a shred? And you don't know that? And here's the real tragedy: "these people" really do want to do us harm. But because Bush completely screwed up the fight against them, it will now be harder to beat them back.

And then there's Steyn.

"I wasn't the only foreigner in the room: there was a bust of Winston Churchill..."

My god he has a high opinion of himself.

P.S. Churchill would have cut him (and Bush) to pieces.
