Top-ranking lawmakers on both sides of the aisle declared Thursday that
the "red line" in Syria has been crossed, calling for "strong" U.S.
and international intervention after administration officials revealed the
intelligence community believes chemical weapons were used.Sen. John McCain,
R-Ariz., and Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., chairwoman of the Senate intelligence
committee, were among those urging swift action.McCain, who has long called
for more involvement in Syria, voiced concern that the administration would
use "caveats" to avoid acting on the new intelligence. He said America's
enemies are paying "close attention" to whether the U.S. follows through,
as the White House signaled it wanted to see more proof before
responding to the new information."I worry that the president and the administration
will use these caveats as an excuse not to act right away
or act at all," McCain told Fox News. "The president clearly stated
that it was a red line and that it couldn't be crossed
without the United States taking vigorous action."He called for the U.S.
to help establish a no-fly zone and "safe zone" in Syria, as
well as provide weapons to the "right people."Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel
first revealed the intelligence assessment, which was detailed in a letter
to select members of Congress, while speaking to reporters on a visit
to Abu Dhabi. The administration then released those letters, which said
U.S. intelligence determined
e younger Bush.People
are perhaps beginning to appreciate that President Bush, for all his Texas
swagger, is a gentleman, Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume said.I
wish that some of my fellow scholars, particularly historians and law professors
and political scientists, would do what academics are supposed to do, which
is to bide their time, do the actual research before proclaiming a
presidency a failure, said Stephen Knott, a U.S. Naval War College professor
and author of a book about Bush. He described the Bush legacy
as "unfinished."It takes a long time for documents, for oral history interviews,
particularly classified documents, to emerge," Knott said. "And then you
get a fuller, more complete picture of a presidency.Presidential historian
Douglas Brinkley said he wasn't surprised by Bush's rising approval rating.We
pummel presidents when theyre in the White House," said Brinkley, whose
2007 book "The Great Deluge" was critical of Bush's handling of the
aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. "We give them a hard time. Then they
leave and they write a memoir that becomes an instant bestseller. Journalists
ask softball questions, and then they open up a presidential library. And
people forgive a lot of the mistakes and say, Hey, he brought
our country through some tough times.'"The toughest time for Americans during
Bush's presidency was Sept. 11, 2001, when Al Qaeda hijacked and crashed
four airplanes, killing nearly 3,000 Americ

On the way home he insisted on sharing his peanut butter and
honey sandwiches with me and the chief-of-staff, Andy Card. The sun had
started setting as we left to return to the White House and
we talked just like friends do he asked me all about
my family, travels, pets and goals. I remember every moment of that
night including the orange and pink sunset that lasted the whole
flight. Another time he howled when I told him how my mom
had asked me about my first week at the White House, and
how Id told her all about how great it was and how
Karl Rove had been so nice and helpful to me, and how
he was just so smart and how happy I was to be
at the White House.when I broke to take a breath my mom
said, Who the hell is Karl Rove? Every week he held a
secure video conference either with Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki or Afghan
President Karzai, and I learned from his strong but gentle guidance of
them always respectful, firm, encouraging and non-condescending. I noted
that even behind closed doors, President Bush strongly, ably and graciously
defended America. He used to catch my eye during policy meetings and
tip me a wink with a little smile as we had noticed
when Vice President Cheney had been resting his eyes. Then wed share
a laugh realizing once again that it was clear the VP had
heard every word. President Bush treated my dad like the king of
England when he came for a state dinner as if his
U.S. in search of Niko.I do think it
is a possibility because what he accomplished while here to set up
the abduction was pretty impressive, Evans said of Atteyas alleged forgery
on Nikos birth certificate and passport.But Evans said hed also never bet
against Kalli, who is now working toward finishing her master's degree in
special education now that she can again focus on bettering herself.If there
was ever a testament to the power of a mothers love, she
embodies that, Evans said. She persevered through some very dark times.
She showed a tenacity that not many would have. She really is
something special.
