I realize that continued American support for the war in Iraq is important. Keeping my support is a moot point as my friends, my family, and I support our military's fight wholeheartedly. Consider how the American public is inundated with propaganda from the pointedly leftist media - hit with a 24/7 barrage of anti-war comments and commentary - it is amazing that support is as high as it is. On rare occasions, the President will succumb to some of these attacks, issue an apology or explanation, and still the barrage continues from the left, and the right attacks him for even addressing the issue in the first place.

President Bush, as you know, does not dictate policy as a result of polling data. We are fighting a war on two fronts (with a military greatly diminished by Clinton/Gore), hunting the murderers of 3000 Americans, maintaining relationships with our allies, learning just who are not our allies, dealing with an ineffective and corrupt UN, protecting our homeland (and thwarting unknown numbers of terrorist attacks), searching for weapons of mass destruction, dealing with domestic issues (education, abortion, gay marriage, etc.), and campaigning for re-election. IMHO, this administration has a incredibly full plate and is operating admirably. I can only hope and pray that a majority of Americans realize this in November.

I hope you're both right about waiting this long...the alternative is unimaginable.

Any person that thinks anti-American sentiment is isolated to one group while there are millions of anti-Americans around the world is very naive. They have the unifying force of their convictions in a world with modern transportation and communications.
