try 20 years
History will exonerate over Iraq, the borders are a different story.
Good news and bad news.... First the good news... I'm already there. I think he did the right thing by invading. Now the bad news: In 50 years, I'll probably be dead.
"If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me, this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the very best I know how - the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what's said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference." The Inner Life of Abraham Lincoln: Six Months at the White House by Francis B. Carpenter (University of Nebraska Press, Lincoln, Nebraska, 1995), pp. 258-259.
Right and good will always prevail over wrong and evil.
It will not take that long - 10 years at the most. And those who died will be considered heroes. God bless each one of them and their families. War is always tragic, but unfortunately necessary. Too bad the Dems insist on living in unreality by not recognizing this. But that is why their influence continues to decline. (And Howard Dean must be a Republican plant.)
Oh, it will take much less than 50 years.
In 20 years we will see what we saw with the Cold War: suddenly, everyone will have supported Mr. Reagan's policies all along.
The great majority of sensible people support the war now. If it weren't for the liars in the media, there wouldn't be any question about it.
Wrong word choice.
"I'm absolutely convinced that some day, 50 or 60 years from now, an American president will be speaking to an audience saying, thank goodness a generation of Americans rose to the challenge and helped people be liberated from tyranny," Bush said. "Democracy spread and the world is more peaceful for it," he added.
THIS sounds more like the President. The other sounded as though he was defensive and concentrated entirely on himself. I'm sure that was unintentional by the writer. [sarcasm]
I'm not certain when he'll get the due he deserves. Reagan only got a taste twenty years later, and he died before that happened. G.W.B. could live 40 years and I suspect so long as he lives they will do everything in their power to deny him credit even when the M.E. is the tourist destination of the world. I am confident in time he will be remembered well. I'm confident most other politicians during this time will not be.
Much much sooner than 50 years.. it won't even take 'history' to show that GWB did the right thing, it's beginning to show now.. and would be further towards that end had the white flag party and their cohort leftist media got on-board from the get go instead of aiding the enemy and continually throwing sour grapes and bananas under the Military and GWB. But despite the defeatists GWB and our Brave Troops won't have to wait too long to see the fruits of VICTORY!!!
I agree with him, they will. They shouldn't have to however. This nation has lost it's soul thanks to the left. I am sick and tired of them.
