Does President Bush Lack the Courage to Confront Cindy Sheehan?
Jason Miller, a 38 year old activist writer, argues in commentary at Tom Paine's Corner that: America's "strong and resolute" Commander in Chief is safely enjoying a five week vacation on his Texas ranch. Yes, that would be the ranch he owns by virtue of that silver spoon that was dangling out of his mouth as he passed down the birth canal.
