What, cheap oil and getting revenge for W's daddy?


This war is not lost! The campaign is actually going quite well.

If by 'the campaign' you mean the scramble for dollars by Bush &
Cheney's cronies, then yeah it's great. However, the overall strategic
outlook in terms of conventional military strength has not looked so
bleak for the U.S. since the British marched in and burned the White
House in 1812. We are heavily in debt, have very little uncommitted
strength, and no credibibility.

If you look at the anti-terrorist picture, it's possibly worse. Instead
of isolated bases in Afghanistan, anti-US terrorists now have a
centralized location. Instead of using irrational religious dogma to try
and make recruits hate America, now they flock into terrorist cells with
a burning desire to kill Americans even if it means becoming a suicide
bomber. Instead of learning how to home-brew primitive bombs from books,
now they have live-fire exercises with sophisticated IEDs. Yeah, it's
going well.


Unfortunately, due to most of the network news medias bias you won't be able
to see the victories.

You mean, Fox News and the Rush Limbaugh Hair Club For Angry White Men
isn't giving us the truth?

Face facts, the mainstream media now is biased very heavily towards
promoting President Bush and his agenda. How many times have you heard
about how terrible Howard Dean is, and how many times have you heard
about Halliburton's ongoing theft & fraud investigation?


... You might actually have to do a little research to
find the truth. But I can see from the original post, that research would
be out of the question.

I can see from your post that facing actual facts in the real world is
out o the question, so go ahead with your 'research.' Maybe you can tell
us how the insurgency is on it's last legs.
