I don't hate Bush this much

I hate what President Bush stands for with a hot passion, but this letter to the NY Times crosses some kind of gentlemanly border for me: "The feeding tube case shows political grandstanding at its most blatant. Think: Three and a half years ago, the president received a memo warning of a noted terrorist's determination to attack America within its borders. He remained in Crawford, Tex., and did nothing. But to sign cobbled-together legislation to interfere in a matter that should have remained a personal family tragedy and to appeal to his religious political base, the president flew to Washington immediately. This is a leader who puts political payback before the law or the good of the country."
