Talk the talk versus walk the walk
I say the difference in responses denotes the value of their respective personal experience. If you've been there, seen it, felt it and lived to talk about it then you know what to do.
Update: Bush's Legacy of Leadership
Bush, spending a long weekend at his Texas ranch, said nothing in person about the helicopter shoot-down Sunday, a day in which three other Americans, including two civilian contractors, also were killed in Iraq.
But White House spokesman Trent Duffy, in a statement read to reporters, said: "The terrorists seek to kill coalition forces and innocent Iraqis because they want us to run, but our will and resolve are unshakable."
General Wesley Clark sends condolences to families of fallen soldiers Sunday:
"My wife, Gert, and I send our prayers and condolences to the families and friends of the American Soldiers killed in Iraq today. We hope that all our troops will be out of harm's way as soon as possible."
