<<Bush is not asking for help for Iraq, he is asking for help to get re-elected.>>

Hardly. Bush's re-election is a done deal, and has been since the 2002 votes came in.

Don't believe me? Ask any politically-competent Democrat. You'll will find them all studiously AVOIDING the 2004 race, except for Loserman-who, instead, is studiously positioning himself for the great digging-out after the 2004 nuclear disaster...

Based upon the outstanding progress made in a few months the rebuilding plan was just more genius. Now they could have waited six months and then had in place what was needed to complete in two months what took five. But it's better for Iraq to be where it is now then where it would be in a few months in the future had the war been delayed. And waiting would have cost and extra 18 billion and most likely cost several more American lives. All and all the plan was genius.

Several hundred more Iraqis may have been killed by Saddan but it seems to the loony left that Iraqis don't count for anything.

Iraq may or may not be a disaster for the Iraqis but it sure is for Americans.
