The article was not about the American sentiment. It was about President Bush. And it certainly is the case that when the President's ratings were sky-high, he could have pushed through higher military budgets. The President did not have to cave on the federalization of airport security; indeed, he could have instituted Israeli-style security and profiling at the airports.

True enough, but the overall tenor of the article seems to be that the administration is failing in the war on terror. I don't think that this is anywhere near the case.
While everything may not have gone as we would like, we are making steady progress.
