Staylo: The problem with taking Bush out of the equation is Kerry himself. I still have not heard adequate plans from Kerry for either carrying on this war or scaling it back. In ways, Kerry is a larger problem than Bush because while he says there's a problem with the current administration, he offers no tangible solutions.

BRJ is on to something. If we were at all concerned with true nation building, we'd look into Sudan. It's got everything going for it and us in the way of making the U.S. look like superheroes.

1) The country is poor and starving.
2) It's being raped by Islamic fundamentalists.
3) To my knowledge it has no oil, though I could be wrong.

If we were to save a country like that, the world would love us.

This just shows, one needs to be prudent when selecting their crusades.
