I think it's too late for President Bush to explain about Iraq. I was totally shocked yesterday when my mother said we need to get out of Iraq. She said we should've done war the right way, not this politically correct crap. Bomb the crap out of them back in the beginning. Let our troops kick ass. She said she's sick of hearing about the terrorist's "rights".
My mother is a conservative R. Agree with you on the public relations incompetence.
I vote for your mother as Secy. of Defense!
I will admit, I stayed home yesterday for the first time in a mid-term or presdential election year. I did it for this very reason. I am not going to reward Republicans for letting our troops die in order to try to placate the liberal media. My congresswoman is Judy Biggert, so she won anyway.
People who want us to level cities or commit genocide aren't any more realistic than the Dems.
:p
I'm with you. I love the prez but he truly is a poor communicator and in this mass media environment, that is deadly. PLUS, I do believe, the war had more support when we taking the fight to the enemy (Fallujah), which should have been repeated in Ramadi, Baquoba, Haditha, Sadr city etc...And when the enemy then begs us for peace, then we seek a political solution.
