Bush is just someone who's not intellectually curious (his own admission) so he just looks for simple solutions to complex problems which is one of the reasons we have this huge problem in Iraq now. Jon Stewart from the Daily Show calls it the Mess in Mesopotamia.

LOL..Monday night Stewart had this actual clip of Bush talking about the June turnover of power in Iraq. I tried to find it online but basically Bush sets another world record for saying "uhm" in one sentence and he doesn't even make sense. Something like we're working on it but it's not an entity yet. Then he finishes it off with one of his smirks.

Anne - even in an established democracy like the US you still have to be vigilant about preserving free speech if you're against the ruling party. If you dissent you get so much "crap" thrown at you it's amazing. If the Democrats do win the White House again I wonder how Republicans would like being constantly told to not dissent because it only means they hate America.
