Quote:
If you qualifications for great figure are a willingness to proclaim their faith than W is in the same league as Hitler, Mao, G. Kahn, and anyone else who has ever been powerful. That power stems from the group of people that they represent by association, not conviction (as determined by his actions, not his decrees). History disagrees that W was in anyway exceptional or impressive except for his ability to tap the emotions of a certain group of people. If you were impressed it came from his ability to say something that resonated in you.
Yes, yes, and YES!!!!!
