the sticking point it the majority of Americans see the Iraq war as what it is, as part of the war on terror

the other issue is indecision - most Americans do not want a leader who is always changing their stand on the most important issue facing this country today - terrorism

“we were against the war before we were for it which was before we were against it again” - LOL

glad to hear from mooran again - just confirms what the dems really stand for - not much of anything these days

Interesting concept considering the majority of Americans (60% to be exact) oppose the war in Iraq.

On the other hand, 50% of Americans believe Iraq had WMD or the capability to produce them, so it's entirely possible there are sizable numbers of Americans who see the Iraq war according to your definition.

You speak with such authority about what America is, wants and sees. Are you sure terrorism is the most important issue facing the country?

yes - I believe it is
as I have stated before, all they are trying to do is throw the economy into a depression. we will handle the rest of our destruction
I do not think that is a hard goal to accomplish given the house of cards we call the stock market these days & the number of others who want nothing more than to see the US knocked down a peg or two or three

You REALLY need to see the Penn and Teller episode on numbers, it tells you ALL you need to know about polls and studies.

Or, you could google Thomas Sowell, and read what he just wrote about studies. It applies equally to polls.

I don't know why? He said his plan over and over and over, as recently as last week...

He said that if he were president he would do better, and be smarter.

While I support Bush and the war in Iraq.....I do have a son in the US Army that has already completed one tour in Iraq and is scheduled to return for another 1 year tour in October.

The first time, when he left I cryed.......the night he called me from home and said...Dad, I'm home.......I cryed again, this time due to the relief of knowing that he was safe and no longer in danger.

While he was on his first tour, the camp he was stationed at (Camp Victory?) was hit by mortar fire (the PX was hit) killing some US soldiers. I saw this on the news about an hour or so before my son called to say he wasnt one of the casualties.

While I do realize that we cant just up and leave before the Iraqi's get all their ducks in a line, this thing cant end soon enough for me. This second combat tour is gonna really suck.

I was talking to my son the other night and mentioned that Israel might have killed some Iranian Revolutionary Guard members in Lebanon. My son said....*We might have to go kick Iran's arse, that could be fun*. My reply to that was...None of this is *fun* when your son is in the US Army.

Though your Son doesn't know me from adam...Please tell him Thank you from a Vet.

And thank you for just being normal and worrying about your son. No political views. Just a Parent expressing concern.

Your sons service is greatly appreciated by Me and my wife who read this and was moved by it.

Elfie, tell him thanks for me as well. Having friends and family going in harms way, I understand your emotions. Remember, they also serve who only sit and wait. God Bless you and yours.

Michael Moore is still alive?!?!

I thought he'd consumed himself in an act of parasitic cannibalism months ago. Sheesh.

Moore is preliminary evidence that the Democrats have not forgotten how to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

This mid-term election and probably the '08 Presidential should be a cakewalk for the Dems. Should be.

However, it seems when they realize this, they drag out every nutbag idea, extremist viewpoint and crazy proposal and parade it down mainstreet under their "NOW IS THE TIME!" banner.

Which, of course, shocks the heck out of any "swing" voters that were thinking of voting Democratic.

If they can keep their Loony Lefties, like Moore, in check they'll have an easy time of it.

If they unlock the asylum, they may have trouble.

Hey Elfie, my unit is going back in Oct. Hec i may end up having him on my plane during this tour. Ofcourse he is probable safer fighting the bad guys then flying on my plane...LOL

Was hoping we would go to Afgan this time, since my son is deployed there right now.
