Whether we're there or not doesn't matter. If we push into North Korea, the first thing they'll do is attack South Korea. And I'm not really sure it's possible for more people to hate Bush. Anyone who looks at the job he's done up until now and thinks it's even remotely helped is kidding themselves. The people who still support him are just too damn stupid to admit that they fucked up.

I gotta say I agree with Rob here...at least superficially. Iraq was a mistake. I don't care if we got the guy we went after...there are far worse people in this world. All you need to do is look at people who actually have the technological means to harm us as they see fit. Oh wait...that's nobody. Scratch that. Since we've been in Iraq we've not only stretched our armed forces to the breaking point but we've used up whatever political clout we had in the world making a second invasion virtually impossible. Look at Israel and Lebanon. Israel is essentially committing genocide but everyone here is just sucking their thumb and pretending it's not happening. Anyone here old enough to remember what happened when Iraq pushed into Kuwait? It was a matter of days before we sent their asses packing. Now with everyone tied up in Iraq, we have literally no one to spare so we don't have much of a choice but to sit back and watch Israel pull it's bullshit. We'll...we could pull troops out of Iraq and send them to where the real problems are, but to do that we'd have to admit we're wrong, and that shit just ain't happening. Ever.
