 would be better parents than gay men.Nancy 
Dreyer, a mother in a two-mom family, has noticed this in her 
own life."With gay male friends of ours who have kids, people will 
say, 'My gosh, who takes care of this baby?'    
as if they're not capable," says Dreyer, whose 57 and lives in 
suburban Boston.The assumption, she says, is that men aren't nurturing. 
And if they're too nurturing, she says, people get suspicious, noting that 
no one has ever questioned her and her partner about their ability 
to raise their son, who's now in college.She's noticed the different ways 
society treats gay men and lesbians, partly because she has a brother, 
Benjamin Dreyer, who's gay. The Dreyer siblings say it's difficult to compare 
their experiences because Benjamin came out in college, and Nancy in her 
early 30s.So he was the first to tell their parents. "They yelled 
at me. They took you to dinner," Benjamin Dreyer, who's 54 and 
works in publishing in New York City, now jokes with his sister.Truth 
was, as a young gay man coming of age as the AIDS 
epidemic took hold, his parents simply worried, and with good reason, his 
sister says.There's little doubt, they both say, that AIDS influenced the

series of speeches and impromptu remarks that Bush gave in the days 
immediately following 9/11, including the memorable moment when he used 
a bullhorn and, standing with a New York City firefighter amid the 
rubble of the twin towers, declared that the people who knocked these 
buildings down will hear all of us soon." During that period, Bush 
earned the gratitude of all Americans, including those opposed to him politically, 
Brinkley said.I think that because 9/11 is such a defining moment in 
our lives -- like Pearl Harbor or the Kennedy assassination -- people 
will start remembering 9/11, Brinkley told Fox News. George W. Bush, in 
my opinion, did a pretty good job of uniting the country in 
those weeks of dire need. He communicated well; the government functioned."Brinkley 
noted the creation of the Department of Homeland Security and specific security 
enhancements at Americas airports."And we did not get hit again. We werent 
struck again after 9/11," Brinkley said. "He did the best he could.Bush's 
legacy, however, also will be inextricably tied to the still-evolving fates 
of the countries he ordered American troops to invade in the aftermath 
of 9/11: Afghanistan and Iraq. The president, as well as aides like 
Condoleezza Rice, cautioned repeatedly during his two terms that the verdict
