George W. Bush

Every time this guy speaks, I love him more.  During his surprise Thanksgiving-day visit with the troops in Iraq -- the first time an American president ever set foot in that country -- he said this:

Those who attack our coalition forces and kill innocent Iraqis are testing our will; they hope we will run.  We did not charge hundreds of miles into the heart of Iraq, pay a bitter cost of casualties, defeat a ruthless dictator and liberate 25 million people only to retreat before a band of thugs and assassins... We will stay until the job is done.

Read the report of how the secret trip was planned and executed; it’s really interesting.  Also noteworthy: Hilary Clinton just visited Afghanistan, and was served food by the troops; while Bush was in Iraq, he served food to the troops.

Update: for a good laugh, read the typical socialist knee-jerk reaction to Bush’s trip.  I guess you have to be a leftist to not understand the need for secrecy and security when flying the president into a war zone.
