There is some subtextual presumption that the war was somehow bungled by poor decision making (asserted by those that are not in the decision making loop). It is assumed that the hindsight opinions (offered by American saboteurs) would have been superior, and therefore Bush's are obviously inferior. With as much gravity as they assert these self-serving assumptions one could argue that indeed Bush made all the right decisions. It is quite possible that those who contend Bush's decision making couldn't be better were correct. In fact, through the prism of history, Bush's actions were and are superior to any war strategy decision-making in world history...Okay, possibly not better than "ANY war strategy", but certainly not the worst in wars that have been thought to be brilliant or their outcome worthy.
To sit back and criticize Bush for not doing this or that perfectly, based on untested theory, is motivated by the desire to undermine Bush. This encourages and works to the advantage of the enemy...That is what is evil about the criticisms coming from the left, they are looking to undermine a President invested in protecting the country, caring not one ounce if it discourages American forces...The good of the country is forgotten by these types (who are motivated only by power) no matter if the country suffers.
