News Bush and Churchill: What is the Connection?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a comparison between President George W. Bush and Winston Churchill, particularly in the context of Bush's quotes and actions regarding the invasion of Iraq. The original poster seeks clarification on Bush's reference to Churchill, noting that while Bush may not be directly quoting him, he draws parallels between their leadership paths. The poster acknowledges that Bush's actions removed a tyrant but argues that Churchill's effectiveness stemmed from a clear understanding of his enemy's intentions, as demonstrated by historical events in Europe. This distinction highlights a perceived difference in the clarity of threats faced by each leader.

What the ...?

Can somebody please just explain his Churchill quote?

NOTE: I ain't criticising his invasion of Iraq coz (I can't believe I'm actually typing this) he did rid the world of a tyrant. BUT c'mon the Churchill thing is just wrong!

Well he's not actually quoting "Churchill" now is he, he is simply comparing the similarities in the pathways (His, and Churchills, and Blairs too!) that are being followed...so...?
 
there is a subtle difference between Bush and Churchill...Churchill was good at his job.
 
Basically I suspect that the difference is in Churchill's Enemy had shown his colors, clearly enough, in his actions in Poland, France, etc. demonstrating his direction of wanting World Dominance...You can figure out the rest...right?
