1 6-year term would be a better scenario. Every 2term president has been pretty bad the last 2 years

Personally, I think that by 2006 Bush knew that there would be no victory in Iraq and no victory in Afghanistan. There would be no real "mission accomplished." That must have to have been very demoralizing to him personally.

It's very much like how LBJ must have felt about Vietnam in 1968.

He probably got war weary. Not from the fighting in Iraq but from the politics surrounding Iraq. Cindy Sheehan. The “die-ins” in Times Square. The constant drumbeat of negativity.

A person only has so much fight in them and I think Bush reached his limit during the heights of the Iraq war protests. After that, he had no stomach for the fight.

W was overwhelmed by Nazi Pelosi and her never-ending references to “The failed Bush Administration” and the relentless media harping on that theme

And the Media is trying to do it again to help Obama
