      Maybe they started losing their spine when they found out how many lies they'd been told.

      So it's not the fault of the person who started a war on cherry-picked intelligence, it's the fault of the public for becoming weary of that war.

      Yep, the American people just don't have the gumption to handle adversity, do they? One perfectly justified war, and they all fall to pieces.

      It really is amazing how far some people will go to defend Bush.

      This moron is on one of the local stations her in the DFW Metroplex every day (WBAP). It's obvious that Mark Davis lost his mind years ago....

      Hold on there, Rush Lite.

      Bush was the man in charge of the country. To say that America lost its spine while Bush did not...gee, sounds to me like he should have been the one controlling the lever, right?

      To imply America and Bush two entities that had no effect on each other is totally incorrect.

      To imply this while in Rush's seat? Typical.

        To be fair to bush, he did keep manipulating the terror alert level for political purposes - oops, I mean to keep the country engaged.

      Bush didn't "lose his spine" in the war on terror
      No, he lost it long before that, when he decided he couldn't show up for a National Guard physical after it was announced that those exams would be including drug tests. Then he lost the rest of his speine and didn't show up where he was assigned.

      That is the very definition of "spineless," and it doesn't describe the country, it describes George Walker Bush, long before he was appointed President by the Supreme Court.

      Spines were not lost, our direction was lost.

      Bush's "compass" was not lost, it was defective.

      The Taliban and Al Qaeda were, and still are the enemy. Attacking their haven in Afghanistan was the right course.

      Iraq was a distraction which by the fall of 2003 had caused Americans to question the mis-direction of the war and the resources to fight it.

      No, American never lost its spine.

      Bush and his administration lost their way.

      Maybe Rush is absent today because he couldn't find his spine. He must be well rested, though...he takes enough days off.

        All Rush has to do to find his spine is look right above the cyst that got him out of the draft. Wait, never mind, that cyst was used because Rush was spineless.
