Bush is now hemorrhaging votes with this second beheading and he knows it. He looked so angry at a situation out of control. I dont think it was sympathy for the dead person, from a president who seems to be able to send our troops to war on dubious pretexts quite easily. As regards the 'bad guys' they killed for the murder, well they were probably just random 'bad guys' we took out, so the 'perpertrators' look like they have have been bought to justice.
As far as I can see America dont care about the fate of the extremeists, they are too focused on another American losing their life because of the War. We maybe handing over at the end of the month and pulling the troops out a way, but if the contractors are going to be targetted, its gonna be politically really difficult, because we are supposedly talking about US civilian workers here, who are being paid to do a job of work, instead of being paid to fight.

History may show the results of GW's presidency to be one of the most forwarding looking and brave. It takes guts to do what what we are doing. Its too soon to know. But a second term will see the World a completely different place in the Middle East especially
At the slightest provocation we will be in Syria, replace that crazyman Gadafi, knock out Arafat (I thought he was dying of Cancer...NOT)lock down the palestinians in a 'homeland' whether they like there bit of desert or not, and teach the medieval middle east about freedom.
Religionist should be give treatment for mental illness, sessions with shrinks at the very least.
I am convined 'Godism' is symptomatic of a delusional condition.

I think yokel is exactly right, no one can argue that the world isnt safer now that sadam isnt in power. He paid suicide bombers families in Palestine for blowing themselves up and expressed a sincere disire to get his hands on nukes. If he had nothing to hide, then why did he keep on booting up inspectors? Bush potentially could have saved us from a long term disaster and the reprecussions of his presidency will be felt for awhile. As for people that say the muslim world hates us cause of GW. I got news for you, they hated us for a looooooooooong time before that, ever since the creation of Israel, they've wanted our heads.
