Just how bad is it? Our national nightmare? What are you talking about? GWB isn't perfect, and has made plenty of mistakes, Iraq is likely near the top of the list. But, I'm not seeing how bad things are. The economy is roaring along; we haven't been attacked since 9/11; taxes are lower than they've been is years. There are other good things too.

I know some would think that I'm wearing rose colored glasses. And yes there are problems in the world - but to blame them exclusively on the US or Bush is naive.
