» pink101 - Who Else Would Qualify

In Response to Brian who wrote:

First, I question the statement that the President of the United States is the "number one top role model for all citizens in the United States."
.
? I was brought up to believe that the president sets the example for every young person in America. As such, I believe that the actions of the persons who fill that role in our society speak to every man, woman, and child. So, I think President Bush IS the number one role model in America. I don't know who else would qualify; Jack Nicholson or D. James Kennedy?
.
Second, I am unaware of Mr. Bush saying that violence should be used to settle "political disputes" in the world.
.
My position is that his actions speak louder than any words he has ever spoken.
.
In other words, I think he has set an example for us--by the war of agression he instigated in the Middle East--that when sweet talk doesn't work, we need to kick the living hell out of those people we decide are our enemies and or who don't get in line with our foreign policies. They're either for us or against us!
.
Migisi writes, Pride is our necklace, and we clothe ourselves in violence. But the trouble we cause recoils on us, our violence comes down on our own heads.
.
My goodness and of all things great and small. How eloquent.
