Lest everyone forget...the war was a "cakewalk". It was faster than lightening and relatively casualty-free. If Bush said this to Robertson, he was right. The casualties have come post-war with the worldwide terrorist community and disgruntled baathists causing our guys grief. As soon as they are turned loose they will kick the asses of the "insurgents" and that will be that.

This is what President Bush said in his address to the nation at the beginning of the war in Iraq...

I want Americans and all the world to know that coalition forces will make every effort to spare innocent civilians from harm. A campaign on the harsh terrain of a nation as large as California could be longer and more difficult than some predict. And helping Iraqis achieve a united, stable and free country will require our sustained commitment.
