The Cut and Run President's War - Score Card

Mr. Cut and Run has failed to:

• bring Osama bin Laden down
• oust the Taliban from Afghanistan
• secure Iraq
• improve America's access to oil
• reduce the power of the most retrograde elements of Islamic fundamentalism
• keep the military force strong

He has managed to increase:

• Halliburton's bottom line
• anti-American sentiments in every corner of the globe
• the national debt and the national deficit
• the gap between rich and poor in America
• the power of the most retrograde elements of Xtian fundamentalism
• the rate of catastrophic inuries and mental illness in our veterans

The big winner of Bush's Forever War is, ironically enough, Iran.

For a much needed dose of sobriety, please check out James Wemberly's post on the inanity of House Resolution 861. He succinctly lays out what a real attack on terrorism would look like.
