33. You hit the "Nut" on the head, why do you think we are losing this war.
Bush does not even know HOW to fight this war. Reminds me of the old quote from General General Stillwell on Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek. I am paraphrase General Stillwell "One can not fight something one does not understand, and Chiang Kai Shek does NOT understand the idea and thus can not fight the idea". Stillwell was writing about the Communists and that Chiang Kai Shek was going to lose the upcoming Chinese Civil War.

The same with Bush and Company, they can NOT understand the idea that you HAVE to get the people on your side and cut throat Capitalism is NOT how to do it. These Neo-conservatives do not even want to accept the idea that they MUST share their wealth with the people of Iraq. As long as that is the case the US in Iraq is going to go the way of Chiang Kai Shek in China, slowly being driven out.
