I think you're expecting too much. No politician is going to unite this country beyond a certain baseline in the absence of another direct attack on our soil. Bush *is* leading, because he realizes he cannot afford to wait for unity on those terms.

He is just going to have to drag some kicking and screaming, and that's all there is to it.

I am with Bush on going to Iraq but I also see his failure to unite as a problem.

It certainly isn't Bush. Here in Texas his governorship was defined by bipartisanship. But Washington is Washington...

If we go into Iraq, the country will be united. Bush has a naysayer problem right now. And certain Democrats are not trying to help, their goal is to hamper any unification.
