BUSH FAILED POLITICALLY????

Reader comment on item: What If the United States Had Not Invaded Iraq

Submitted by Susan Lee (United States), Sep 18, 2005 at 19:28

...
The world did not elect Bush, America did; I am sorry if the world does not see his wisdom. He has led us where LOVERS OF FREEDOM need to be.

Why do you think there is no controlling the floodgates of humankind into this country?

You are right to keep up aware of the Islamofascist threat, but the jury is still out on the political failure of this war....
