In a sense, arguing that the Bush lied to get us into Iraq may give him too much credit. I don't believe it was deliberate deceit so much as blindness combined with arrogance. The current uprising gives further support to my theory that the Administration is not so much cunning as clueless.

As a swing voter, I believe that Kerry should attack Bush's competence rather than his character. People are predisposed to think of Bush is a good-hearted Christian who is also a dim bulb. Trying to convince the undecided that he's actually a "bad man" is an uphill battle. The competence theme builds on a pre-existing foundation.

It looks to me like Bush doesn't know what he's doing. That's enough of a reason to fire him.

Do you know anything about military strategy and tactics? NO. How do I know that? Because you say weird things. You probably think we should've sent 100000 soldiers into Afghanistan. Iff this is what you think, you are wrong militarily speaking.

What I find incredible about the situation you described in Afghanistan is the fact that it is still being described as a "liberation of Afghanistan." When that phrase is used the speaker usually also uses Afghanistan's full population as the "liberated" statistic. How much of the population exactly lives under the rule of these competing warlords? Were they liberated?
