I am glad John Kerry lost the election

Thu Jun 01, 2006 at 06:09:17 PM PDT

Don't get me wrong, I think John Kerry would have made a fine president, and I think Bush is horrible on many levels. But, in the long term scheme of things, it is worse for the Republicans that Bush won a second term. Here's why I think so, and it's all about Iraq.

Is it better for the Democrats and America in the long term, that Kerry lost?

How do you win a war without sacrafice?

Mon Nov 28, 2005 at 07:16:30 PM PDT

   When historians look back at the Presidency of George W Bush and how he lost the war in Iraq, I believe they will point to something which is not often discussed these days, but which is important.   Beyond the lies and misinformation,  there is something else which doomed the war to failure.

   A nation cannot win a war without sacrifice from it's people.   George W. Bush never asked for sacrifice for the so-called war on terror, nor the war in Iraq.
