Why is it so hard for you and others to understand that these demonstrations are the largest indication that the Bush administration has not made it's case. No, they are either ignoring the case or are simply ignorant of it. And then there are the organizers who, for the most part, have an altogether separate agenda.... anti unipolarity, Soviet nostalgia, profit etc...

Why is it so hard for you and others to understand that these demonstrations are the largest indication that the Bush administration has not made it's case. It's their failure that leads to folk in the streets. Not the faults of the demonstrators. At some level this is a tautology. The problem is that the adminstration is making a logical case, while the demonstrators are responding with a purely emotional case 'we don't like war! it doesn't feel right for America to fight a war of choice'. Thus the two sides are talking past each other.
