Your statements about leaders at the dawn of humanity seem to imply that Ustwo was wrong to go back to the internment of Japanese Americans. That it was somehow unfair to go back that far.
The effort in this thread to compare Bush to past presidents seems to have started with xepherys' claim that

Under his presidency (regime?) we have lost more freedoms and rights that at ANY other time in our country's history.

Ustwo seemed to be responding legitimately to that statement.
Also, alansmithee's suggestion that we should look at the issues in the context of an attack on US soil like no other in the last 30 years seems reasonable. 9/11 was a unique event in recent US history.
