Unsure
Mmmmmm...pizza.
Nope. We really screwed the pooch. The middle east wasn't Eden before the war, but it's really a mess now.
Bush's legacy will be the war and the mess it created.

Only thirty years, huh?
You're an optimist.
As current "next Hitler" IS, is beaten down, as was former "next Hitler" Sadaam Hussein....a new, more evil "next Hitler" will arise and be beaten down....on and on it goes.
I think this repetitive cycle can go on forever....like a zombie.
No matter how cynical I become toward politicians, it's never enough.
Don't Republicans keep claiming that Democratic Senators like Kerry and Clinton voted for the Iraqi War?
So you can flush the unified thing where it belongs.
What should concern you is Rumsfeld's claims about how short the war would be.
Not to mention how ill-prepared the Bush administration shorted the VA in handling the aftermath of this war .

The 1 good thing, probably thr only good thing about the 2nd Iraqi war was it might have finally beat into our thick heads that democracy isn't for everyone, that there are some parts of the world western democracy just isn't going to work. No matter how hard we try, no matter how much money we throw at them, it's not going to work everywhere.
I think even the neo-con war mongers realize this now. Not all of them, but enough to make sure we don't pull another ****-up like we pulled in Iraq.
