[QUOTE]Originally posted by MeGotBeer: [QB] [QUOTE]this is Bush's Cuban Missle Crisis.[/QUOTE] No, it's not. Kennedy had to defuse a situation which could have resulted in the destruction of much of the United States. Thankfully, the situation was handled without a nuclear exchange. Without the ability of this country to react to the possiblity of this major of an attack on the U.S., it has already happened, with bomb scares and other such terrorist related nightmares occuring across this nation since then. While the potential for the Cuban missile crisis was much worse, the actuality of this event is much worse then anything any other sitting President has yet faced (with the very possible exception of FDR, who had to face an isolationist nation with an already collapsed economy, and gear her up for war) -- Bush already has a military, which is both lending humanitarian aid to New York (USNS [i]Comfort[/i] set sail from Baltimore yesterday), and also deploying for a military response. In many ways, Bush has it easier. In many ways, he has it worse. [/QB][/QUOTE]
