America Sucks

To hell with the UN....we need to take the fight to them. If anything Bush needs to take off the gloves.

I agree completely. I laugh at those who call him a wild and reckless cowboy. IMO he has been far too timid. He spent months wasting time begging the UN for support before finally saying "to hell with it" and invading Iraq. Last spring, when the marines were ready to take Fallujah, he had them withdraw. So now, months and many dead soldiers later, they're having to finish the job. (This was one of Kerry's few valid criticisms of Bush, not that I believe for a moment that Kerry would have done any better.) Bush is letting both Syria and Iran get away with supporting the Iraqi insurgency that is killing our soldiers. And so on.

I hope this election emboldens him to be more forceful, and to worry more about the lives of American soldiers than world opinion (or the opinion of the American left).
