When the US loses this war, Bush is to blame. He sarted this mess for no honest reason.

Wow! The Bushites say that 3000 dead human beings, who died simply because Bush lied to start a war doesn't compare to the human beings that died to defend the country against Hitler and the like? They say below that since Vietnam (another mistake) killed more soldiers, then it is ok that 3000 died for Bush's lies. I don't get it.

It wasn't just Bush who lied... a lot of politicians did!
The war was approved by a super-majority of both houses of Congress.

You really ought to stop believing everything the liberals say on yahoo. Bush did not start this war. I'll go over the timeline briefly with you.
Iraq invaded Kuwait.
Kuwait asked for our help.
Our troops went to Kuwait and kicked iraq out.
The U.N. imposed sanctions on Iraq.
Iraq defied sanctions.
Iraq expelled U.N. Weapons inspectors.
Bush presented CONGRESS with evidence comprised of data from most of the worlds top intelligence agencies.
CONGRESS authorized the use of force in Iraq.
The fact that insurgents and terrorists decided to make Iraq a killing field is not Bushes fault. It the fault of the insurgents and terrorists.
And if we do not suceed in Iraq, it is the fault of the American people.
How will the American people react if we pull our troops out, and the insurgents really start killing Iraqi's in massive numbers. If we leave, without the Iraqi government in full control, there will be millions slaughtered at the hands of the sunni's and shiite's. Will you be able to live with that?

This guy lies to himself, why would he care. If he was a man and a true leader he would take responsibility of this failure. He should dissolve the Iraqi government and send a kick *** General over there to put all of the opposing groups in there places. They are going to lose in Iraq because they are trying to please CNN and the media, Fighting with guerrillas type soldiers street to street is just stupid considering the fire power we have. It's the only way to save the Iraqi people and the American soldiers.
Peace,

i see you are already cheering for us to lose...congress is the only one who has power to declare war...NOT the president nor the people of America...so stop crying and return to reality...and the war was started for an honest reason...bush knows that we can't win the war against terrorist by military means only...therefore we are trying to set up a democracy in iraq...and different way of thinking so less terrorist will be born in dictatorships...like iraq had, like in iran, and many other middle eastern countries...but i think you don't want to hear that...beside only about 3,000 have died in iraq...the number is quit low...

I would like to think he does care.. and I would like to believe that he loses sleep over it.. but somehow I just don't think he is that bright.
He knows he manufactured this war.. using Afghanistan and 9-11 to get into Iraq.. he knows that.. I just hope that the image of dead Americans and innocent Iraqis will haunt him in the hereafter.. he should pay for his mistakes.

The US had intellingence reports from US, British, french, Russian,Canadian,even the chinese that Iran had WMD's and was preparing to use them. He also had the delivery systems. Look up intelligence in a military sense, you apparently have no idea what it means

I'm sure the President is aware of that. He took full responsibility for it tonight on live tv. He is doing the best he can in this sad situation. Just because he sends more troops doesn't mean more are going to get killed.

GWB has been a spoiled brat all of his life, a privileged baby, child, and grown man. He's never had to fight in the army, or suffer. What does Bush know about a poor American getting killed in the Baghdad streets.

Why would he start caring now? I really believe he was born without a conscience. I dont know how else he could sleep at night.
