Kevin  ,  I do agree it would be great to get Bin Laden but insted of using the word apprehend I would like to use "terminate".

                              Your right bush has been going at this since 9/11 and had to fight with the democrat party every step of the way. Now things are taking a turn for the better over there since the troop surge McCain fought for. As for the democrat elite ( pelosi, obama, dean ect..) they seem to fear ---Prices going lower at the pump, Anything that may turn our economy around but worse of all they fear success in Iraq ,Pakistan or Afganistan.

                               As for kennedy's/ Johnson's  vietnam war . I wish it was never started, I wish it ended way before nixon inherited it , but it didn't.  When nixon came in to office national opinion was already against the war ,The my lai massacre and other atrocites that happened while Johnson was commander-in-chief and all the protest's that were growing in size did not help the newly elected nixon with his vietnamization idea.

                     Also I am not against protest or freedom of speech ( after all that is what we fight these wars for). But it irks me when the protests are started or insighted by polititcians just for political gains such as with the iraq war
