The world may indeed have changed on 9/11, but mostly here in America. Other countries have known and dealt with terrorism for years. What should have happened is that America should have joined this fight. Instead, after a successful and focused attack on terrorism in Afghanistan, we adventured off into Iraq on a neocon mission that has both failed to attack terrorism and failed to find evidence of the original invasions justification. 9/11 seems to have given Bush and the neocon right the false impression that they can both bend the law and destroy the financial future of this country in the name of fighting terrorism. When people finally have emerged from the 9/11 fog, and stand up against the Bush failures, the neocons are bewildered. They need to wake up and admit their failures: failure in the war on terrorism, failure in the domestic agenda, failure in fiscal conservatism. A poll today shows that 7 out of 10 people favor an independent investigation of the most recent White House scandal. People who think Bush has done a good job has fallen to around half the people, from a post 9/11 high of 90%. The left has always been angry; now, the moderates are also getting angry with the failures of Bush. We don't want Bush to fail. We want him to STOP FAILING.
