If you're a reasonable bloke slumped in front of the telly watching jihadists threatening to behead the Pope or Muslim members of Britain's National Health Service ploughing a blazing automobile through the check-in desk at Glasgow airport, "raving on about jihad" fits in a way that President George W. Bush's religion-of-peace pabulum doesn't.
Bush and Tony Blair can be accused of the very opposite of the traditional politician's failing: they walked the walk but they didn't talk the talk.
That's to say neither leader found a rhetoric for the present struggle that resonated. Howard did.
WE NEED A HOWARD HERE. SOMEONE WHO WILL TALK AND WALK WW4.
- RUDY HAS SOME OF IT.
- MCCAIN A BIT, TOO.
- ROMNEY TALKS THE TALK.
- THOMPSON GET'S IT BUT REMINDS ME OF THE JOHN HOWARD WHO LOST.
