A serious question. Every thread I read here smacks of eager anticipation for failure, disaster, and a gleeful counting of US deaths in Iraq. I realize there is a lot of hatred toward George Bush, but these events are bigger than the president, and your anger toward him is recklessly endangering the lives of our servicemen while undermining our chances of success.

In my opinion, winning the war on terror and setting up a stable Iraq is infinitely more important than who gets elected in November.

So why are so many people so eager to snatch failure from the jaws of victory?

Our differences should end at our nation's borders. You may not like Bush, but at least recognize the good we're doing in Iraq and get behind our military. War is hell enough on its own. The last thing our troops need to hear is a bunch of hateful rhetoric from the likes of Pelosi and Kennedy dooming them to failure.
