Save your breath trying to convince others that Bush is your kind of guy. Bush himself feels he's gonna win anyway. Perhaps the two links below will convince you to take it easy:- Apparently the unilateral way Bush has been acting all along stems from his believing he has been chosen for a Christianizing and democratizing mission commondreams.org Pat Robertson believes Bush will be re-elected because Bush is a religious man. foxnews.com

Bush may appear "strong", but behind that macho facade is a simplistic bully who thinks in black and white. He has little understanding of the nuances of the terrorist mind and little inclination to study the issue. Had he considered the issue carefully, as did his father, he would have concluded that removing a marginalized Saddam and occupying a ethnicly diverse Muslim nation was simply not worth the enormous risk and cost. By the time all is said and done Iraq may cost America $400 billion and 8,000 dead and wounded and we will leave a nation about as democratic as Egypt or Pakistan... a far cry from the quick military victory followed by a democratic Iraq and welcome home parades envisioned by the right wingnuts who talked Bush into this misadventure. And, as President Mubarek of Egypt warned... with a thousand more Osamas targeting us. I won't even get into the Bush domestic policy misadventures. I've expressed many times that if Dems could actually come up with a candidate who was as strong on fighting the terrorists' as GW Bush, I would consider voting for him/her.

I've expressed many times that if Dems could actually come up with a candidate who was as strong on fighting the terrorists' as GW Bush... In the past month, we have had reports coming out of Pakistan about the arrest of the terrorists. These terrorists have been in Pakistan all along. They were on Musharraf's radar screen for the past two years. But Bush chose to keep them under surveillance while he chose to finish whatever is it he wanted to do in Iraq. even today he is closing in on Najaf and mullah Al-Sadr. All that Al-Sadr has said is that the US should leave the US and leave Iraq to the Iraqis. So in light of the above, BUsh is going after someone who is demanding the end of US occupation not end to the fight on terrorism. The real fight against terrorism is in the Pakistan Afghanistan border and beyond into Pakistan. And how many US troops we have ther and what progress are we making in that theatre where actual terrorists are? So what war on terrorism is Bush waging. He gave up two years ago.
