I'm voting Bush out for one reason and only one reason. He failed in his roll as Commander in Chief to serve the best interests of this nation.

The war in Iraq was a mistake. The reasons given for the war were not true. The way the war was prosecuted and the attempt at securing the peace have failed. We removed Saddam but up from the body have sprung a seven headed dragon. Iraqis don't want any more American occupation.

Meanwhile bin Laden is still on the run, while the situation in Afghanistan has been left to worsen. The Taliban have resurged, Warlords are raising record crops of opium and the tenative "peace" which can only be found in Kabul masks the underlying problems all around the country. Afghanistan could easily become a haven for terrorists once again.

Bush has completely underestimated the enormity of the problem. He's divided the world and made us less safe from terrorists.

In a word...failure.
