Regardless of what he says, McBush and other Republicans are joined at the hip to the most unpopular president in recent memory. Had these been good economic times, Obama wouldn't have stood a chance. If this war would have been valid and successful, Obama wouldn't have stood a chance. That "the surge is working" is meaningless when you consider the real fight is with the Taliban and al-Qaeada in Afghanistan, not the late Saddam and Iraq. So the surge is meaningless, the war in Iraq was and remains unnecessary, not to mention the American people are footing the bill for a country that has a budget surplus in excess of $70 million. Even if this war in Iraq is ultimately successful, it was unnecessary. The fact of the matter is, McBush is void of any real ideas. He is out of touch with the real day-to-day goings-on in this country. His overzealous support for the Iraq war may be due to his involvement in the Viet Nam war, but that makes him thoroughly unfit for command. The economy is bad news for McBush.
