Here's your Bush decade in a nutshell, Asstalker:

"For the average working stiff, it was a pretty lousy 10 years. The median household income in 2000 was $52,500. Last year (the most recent year available) it was $50,303. And given that the unemployment rate has climbed to 10.2%, income will almost certainly drop again this year. Low-income Americans fared even worse. In 2000, 11.3% of Americans were living below the poverty line. By 2008, that number had risen to 13.2%. Meanwhile, the percentage of Americans without health insurance increased from 13.7% to 15.4%. "

"Fine. A series of terrorist attacks against American military and civilian targets is a "special case"."

But they aren't looking to take any territory. They can't. They are looking to cause chaos. But you know that. Or should.

Treating it like a war situation is just stupid.
