"Appeasement" hardly sounded like "tongue-in-cheek," Teemu. Yet even the media by now realizes that Bush's march to war in Iraq has made Iraq a magnet for terrorists and done Al-Queda a real service. If you were bin Laden, you too would want Bush -- with his continuous series of mistakes, miscalcuations and sheer incompetence as a wartime "leader" -- re-elected. At this point 57% of the American people realize we're going in the wrong direction -- and we're still 3 months away from the election. If there were another terrorist attack, I can't imagine a "rally" around the president taking place. In the three years since 911 very little has been done, very little has been spent. After all, the richest of the rich needed their taxcut. There wasn't enough cash available to finance this war, pay for their taxcut AND support national security. Another terrorist attack would be symptomatic of the need to throw the bum out of the White House.
