>>I'm sure its easy for you to support GHWB, now that he's no longer in office. Your impressions of GWB simply are not borne out by facts and by his superb handling of his job since 9/11.<<

Details, I need details, man. Are you sure you're giving credit to the right guy? I give a lot of credit to Colin Powell, Condoleeza Rice, Tommy Franks and and US Special Forces. I can grant that the ultimate decisionmaking rests with GWB. But I see the hand of his father everywhere, including most of his team.... and that goes back through his entire life, not just the past year.

I'm also aware that none of the politicos were certain how to conduct the war in Afghanistan and the speed of the Taliban collapse surprised them.

I'll stop there and grant you space to provide topic specific counter arguments if you wish. What specific choices has GWB made that constitute this 'superb handling' you refer to?
