I know that you really want america to be a success, but you can't say that you've never had a grin on your face (or at least on the inside) when one of bush's plans blew up in his face. Lots of people are eager for Bush to fail (which i think should be the actual topic since nobody is really eager for the US to fail). It happened when Clinton was president too. It happens for all presidents. The fact that when the president fails some part of the US fails is just an unfortunate side effect of what everybody really wants.

Although I may enjoy the occasional Bush malapropism, there isn't anything funny about military failure. I don't want him elected, but I don't want the body count increased either. If we could somehow pull out of Iraq tomorrow while leaving a stable, democratic government, I would be fully supportive. It might play in Bush's favor, but some things take precedence over politics. I'd still work like hell to see that he isn't reelected, though.
