"We're a great nation. We're a nation of resolve. We're a nation that can't be cowed by evildoers. I've never had more faith in America than I have right now." -- George W. Bush September 16, 2001 Vist BushCountry.org today! http://www.bushcountry.org ======================================================================== Bush Update Weekly Radio Address THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. The events of September the 11th left America sadder and stronger, and they clarified some important goals for our country. We have a war to wage and a recession to fight. Defending our country and strengthening our economy are great priorities for 2002. We must be determined and we must keep our focus. This Saturday, I'm traveling in Oregon and California, talking with people who have been hit hard by the economic downturn. When I return to Washington on Monday, I will be meeting with my economic advisors and other officials to discuss the latest economic data and work for a quick recovery for our economy.

And there are other reminders for us in the Christmas story -- some cheerful, and others less so. Among these are the families that remained in Bethlehem, grieving over the sacrifice of innocent children, killed at Herod's command. This Christmas has been indelibly marked by the events of Sept. 11, and the ongoing struggle against terrorism. Yet it is not these evils which the slaughter of innocents at the first Christmas should most bring to mind. A greater grief than international terror afflicts us, because our children, who are the future of America, remain under savage assault both within the womb and during their most vulnerable early years.

In a scene reminiscent of the movie "Jaws", eight- year old Jessie Arbogast lost his arm stemming from an attack by a 7-foot bull shark on July 6th of last year in Florida. The young victim's uncle, Vance Flosenzier, was there to intervene in a spectacular manner at the onset. In an amazing accomplishment, Flosenzier proceeded to drag that dastardly shark, that carnivorous sea beast, to the shore with only his bare hands and brute force, for the purpose of extracting the boy's arm from the shark's gut. In our collective memory, none of us had ever heard of such a thing being done before. And everyone loved it! And the "Day of Infamy" only generated more respect for the intrepid "manly men" of the working class, the firefighters, policemen and emergency workers who braved life and limb to rescue those at the World Trade Center. As President Bush has indicated, the tragic circumstances of 9/11 have caused us to re-evaluate our priorities, and to sort out that which is truly important in life. And, clearly, a dauntless spirit and selflessness are not only salient human attributes, but deeply attractive ones as well.

With these euro notes of this common currency, the wire services heap praise on its successful launch. The wheels of business and the mechanism of finance are all in gear to usher in this brave new world of commerce. For years we have heard the benefits of the first united coinage since the Roman Empire and the elimination of the chaos of individual currencies. So what will this conversion mean for Europe and the rest of the world? The conclusion largely depends on what you consume from the political plate and whether you wish to place your thumb on the scale that weighs the beef. The traditions of Europe are quite different from those of the original colonies when it comes to a monetary perspective. With the founding of our Nation, constitutional powers were enumerated regarding the nature and coinage of money. Individual States were restricted from their own coinage, while punishment for counterfeiting was established. Standard weights and measures of gold and silver were defined as legal tender. So what does this have to do with the modern world and the financial developments on the continent?

Hitler and Stalin enjoyed a fairly long run on the world's Bijou stage, but after their days came to an end, Hitler in 1945 and Stalin in 1953, we really haven't had anyone of their evil ilk in the real world. To be sure, Mao Tse Tung got his share of publicity and may have done in more folks than either Hitler or Stalin, but he had no real persona in the west. Fidel Castro has been little more than a familiar name for a perpetual nuisance who always looks like he needs a bath, de-lousing and some deodorant.
