People are tired of the length of the war so far.

They don't feel the benefit of having moved Saddam out of there.

They are not so sure the Iraqi people deserved our efforts when you look at the type of government they want to have.

There was WMD found, but not on the scale people expected, though it could have been moved to Syria.

The above is why the MTV generation is having troubles with the war.
Basically we are a want it now spoiled society.

Better question, do the American people believe we are in a war on terror where bad guys are coming at us and are they glad Bush is trying to keep them alive?

I'll do you one better:

We are in the age of 24/7 cable news where people see the war happening in real time. In a time where people expect instant satisfaction from every aspect of their lives, it doesn't surprise me people want this effort to be touch and go. However, this is something that we will be dealing with for years to come.

IMHO, the MTV group doesn't even know there is a war in Iraq or a War on Terror.

Just don't take away their iPod, their cell phones, their computers or their plasma TVs.

I just wonder how the kids from 16-19 are affording gasoline to cruise to school and the mall. School buses and public transportation is not part of their "life-style".

There are a lot of good kids out there, but right now most of them would pacify the terrorist just to keep their creature comforts. Unfortunately, most do not understand where they will be in 10 years, doing hard labor at the behest of the imans.
