If Bush can't take care of his own country, why Iraq?

The entire world market has dropped by 5% recently. The situation in Iraq is getting much better, the bullshit media coverage is getting worse. Being killed by the dozens each day *oh my*! There are more deaths per minute in the US then there have been so far in that war. And few soldiers have died in horrible ways. The US was most active in the UN at the start because we have always been active, but now the UN has become passive and wouldn't act on a situation for *10* years. We made a threat to Saddam, he didn't relent, and so we followed our word. We won't let anyone stop us when we say we will do something if it could me hundreds of millions of our people and a large chunk of our country.

Summary: Everything you guys have said so far is false and/or is misinterpreted because it actually is a GOOD thing for our country.

...yes because we should simply disregard news sources and trust your biased bullshit instead?

Bush fucked this country in the ass so bad it'll take at least 2 mroe presidents for it to recover fully.
