I think you're taking strange assumptions and creating your own failed google existence. BTW - I seriously question much of the way the war in Iraq has been PR'd and promoted but to say that it is a failure is absurd, as with your statement that there is nothing more than a stream of body bags.

If you are objective, you would see that militarily, it's been one of the most successful and least hurtful military operations to both civilian and military on both sides. Also getting rid of Saddam is a "good" thing for reasons that have been discussed pro/con ad nauseum.

As for overall policy - it can be debated all over the place. I can almost see those terrorists running around saying, "What's that crazy Bush gonna do next?" Perhaps that's why they have stuck to attacking our "friends."

I don't think the nutty conspiracy theories do anything. Bush may have made major promotional mistakes but there is no "oil" or "neocons rule the world" agenda.

I'm more impressed with what happened in Spain. The clear rejection of the war certainly isolates the US further and may have a profound impact on the US electorate. Kerry has already taken the ball here and run with it.

If you want change, it helps to be somewhat rationale.
