So how are things looking eight years later?

Think Progress takes us back eight years when George W. Bu$h pledged "to uphold the honor and dignity of the office" at the GOP convention. The reference to "the lessons of Vietnam" and the image with St. John makes this post clearly worthy of attention. The whole speech is available for anyone strong enough to try to stomach it. I made it just a little ways before getting a spell of the vapors. I did note the line, "We will write, not footnotes, but chapters in the American story." The fact is that he and his have written tragedy. John Gunn
