The ASSociated Press has Bush Hails Mongolia for Backing Iraq War

In the wake of congressional unrest over his war policies, President Bush thanked Mongolia on Monday for standing with him in Iraq and compared the struggle against Islamic radicalism to this country’s battle against communism.

“Free people did not falter in the Cold War, and free people will not falter in the war on terror,” the president said in a speech prepared for delivery to members of Parliament and others at the Government House.

Bush said Mongolia has stood with the United States as “brothers in the cause of freedom.” He called Mongolians’ success in driving communist leaders from power 15 years ago an example for the world.

“Like the ideology of communism, the ideology of Islamic radicalism is destined to fail _ because the will to power is no match for the universal desire to live in freedom,” Bush said.

Sounds like Mongolia better understands the GWOT than Congressman Murtha.

Make no mistake Murtha has every right to make his views known about the Iraq War.

But he is WRONG!
