"The Unstoppable Power of Freedom" Or Is It Another Political Ruse To Trick The American People And Garner Political Support?

Well, the rhetoric in this week's Presidential address is as thick with Rovian red, white and blue ideological fervor as ever.

The way forward will be difficult, and it will require sacrifice and resolve. But America's security depends on liberty's advance in this troubled region, and we can be confident of the outcome because we know the unstoppable power of freedom.

I am not altogether certain what type of sacrifice the President himself has made in this struggle. It appears to me that he has made very little sacrifices of his own.

From the people's stand point, we have been requested to shoulder an undo burden and unfairly distributed amount this sacrifice on his behalf: from the enormous debt accrued that will weigh heavy on unborn generations of taxpayers, to W's willingness to sacrifice other lives for his cause, among other things. I just am not seeing what sacrifices the W, Rove and Co have made that equate with those shouldered by ordinary, hard working and honorable citizens of this country (not to mention the civilians killed in Iraq at his behest).

Does any one have some insight into what sacrifices this President has made for his "war on terror?"
