OUR BEST BET TO PROTECT AMERICA
But as a New Yorker, an American, a believer in the power of liberty â?? and
as a father â?? I think the most important reason to re-elect the president is
that he is the candidate best able to protect American from those who seek to
harm us.With a single stunning speech, delivered on Sept. 20, 2001 to a united
American public and both houses of Congress, President Bush reversed 30 years of
inconsistent and dangerously inadequate response to terrorism. He announced the
Bush Doctrine â?? that this nation would no longer only play defense, passively
awaiting the next terrorist strike but would go on the offensive.Instead, we have dismantled an entire national incubator for global
terrorism, arrested hundreds of imminent actors here and abroad, foiled several
looming attack plans and removed from power a dictator who not only murdered
thousands of his own people, but stood as a sponsor and symbol of world
destabilization.Regardless of the outcome of this election, for his swift, decisive,
unwavering â?? and right â?? reaction to the greatest attack in American history,
George W. Bush has earned a place as one of our greatest presidents.With much left to accomplish, we owe it to America to re-elect
President Bush.
