Republicans and conservatives attacked our President and Commander in Chief during war time.

That is exactly how it happened and everyone here knows it.

Exactly, obviously the "real" conservatives kicked out good conservatives, so their spin falls flat.

They do not know who the enemy is, the MSM.

As far as politics are concerned, ineptitude is the only real sin in warfare. The war hasn't been run well. Democrats didn't like the war, and once they realized that Republicans were unhappy about how it was being run, they felt safe in criticizing it. The Republican line held for a long time, but unhappiness over the situation ran very deep. It was just a matter of time before the ranks started to break.

President Bush has the 'vision thing', and he understands that we need to confront militant Islam. His courage in being the first to really raise the banner and charge the enemy's positions will always be remembered. Hopefully, his strategic mistakes will be remembered sepearately from his visionary ones, and not be repeated.

Oh, were we supposed to sit in the back of the bus?

"Please don' beat me, massa! Ah be good."

Truth is, President Bush and the Republicans in general abandoned a number of conservative principles long ago, so finally conservatives spoke up with the truth of that abandonment and stood firm against that erosion of conservatism. But you look at that and call it an attack instead.

Sheesh, you'd better hope the Republican leadership doesn't buy into your crap logic, or they'll be in the minority for a long time to come.

Dream on. Conservatives are the ones who backed Bush most on the war, so your point is unfounded. Bush held his base in contempt, and he paid at the polls.
