>>> Bush has lost the most important battle - the battle for the hearts and minds of the world. The war has become a diplomatic disaster. Everything Bush touches - the economy, the environment, foreign relations just seems to turn to crap.<<<

And in the aftermath of the tragedy of 9/11, who'd have thought this possible? It's sort of like the Yankees going from World Champions to having the worst record in baseball.

You naively think that the current diplomatic scrape about Iraq is but the result of President Bush's shortcomings... and I tell you that the diplomatic botch over Iraq has been artfully done ON PURPOSE by the Bush administration... Bush is playing a dangerous game: he's in the same situation as JFK was in 1963 --very popular (recall the 2002 mid-term landslide), he's got the GOP under his sway (just ask Trent Lott)-- actually, the last thing Bush needs to get re-elected in 2004 is a bloody sitzkrieg in Iraq compounded with a deepening recession at home...
