I believe the vision of removing Hussein, the Talaban and hopefully Al Cada (sp. ?) and attempting to establish a democracy in the middle east was a good thing. Who knows? Maybe in the end it will prove worthwhile. And I support the idea of trying to establish a buffer by fighting it there in its own back yard. But, I'm really mad and embarrassed in the way it has been handled and excecuted. If Bush & Rumsfeld would have let the generals prepare it and fight it, it would have been over (probably) by now - and probably successful. I was in the Army during the Vietnam era, and I just hate it that politicians screw up everything.
