The entire mess is shameful. It's a bad time for America.

We need courageous men and women to stand up against this corrupt machine called the Bush administration. Congress should start now to raise issues of legality. If Bush truly broke the law he should be held accountable.

Iraq will never look like the Neocons want because Iraqis are different from us in too many ways.

We may have to settle for an Iraqi theocracy.

Bush et. al. have gotten, and continue to get it, completely wrong.

Things were supposed to die down after Saddam's capture.

What Bush doesn't realize, with his pounding of Mosques and civilians, is that the typical middle easterner is increasingly seeing the whole mess as a war between religions.

Bush hated Saddam because Saddam was the obvious bogey-man of his father's presidency. He simplistically thought getting rid of Saddam was all he had to do - the divisions of the Middle East would melt as the Arab population would embrace the US.

Bush is a complete buffoon. He’ll continue to flounder in Iraq especially as the US embraces Israeli policy and sides with Israel. I don’t think US brought democracy will ever work in Iraq while the US so obviously sides with Isreal.

It's not a quagmiyer - it's just a big F'n mistake in foreign policy and it has made the US more unsafe.
