Over the years, Brett and I have talked a lot about kind of what happened at the end of my career, kind of where he's at right now.

If the foregoing was simply insensitive, George W. Bush's comparison of the first U.S. war against Iraq, when his dad was commander in chief, and the current U.S. war against Iraq is damning. In Misunderestimated: The President Battles Terrorism, John Kerry and the Bush Haters . . I think freedom will prevail, so long as the U.S. and its allies don't . . do what many Iraqis still suspect might happen, and that is cut and run early, like what happened in '91. (Quote by - Bill Sammon)

It's wiser being good than bad; It's safer being meek than fierce: It's fitter being sane than mad. My own hope is, a sun will pierce The thickest cloud earth ever stretched; That, after Last, returns the First, Though a wide compass round be fetched; That what began best, can't end worst, Nor what God blessed once, prove accurst. (Quote by - Robert Browning)

Then their anger was abated toward him, when he had said that. (Quote by - Bible)
