Lets see how ineffective:
Sadaam is in jail and awaiting trial,

Not worth 7,000 US casulaties, including almost 900 KIA.

his country now has the right to protest, with out fear of being executed,
they
have electricity, running water, hospitals with enough supplies to operate,

Ditto above.

There are some fighting still, but read about what happened in Germany
after WWII, there were still some hold outs fights for another 3 yrs AFTER
the
war ended.

Not like this. If you can cite 5 US KIA in one day in Germany in 1948 (we had
5 KIA yesterday in Iraq), I'd like to see it. If you can show that Nazi
diehards were able to kill the head of the German government, as the insurgents
did a few weeks ago, throw that in.

Bin Ladin used to run a country, now he is on the run and living in a cave,

"The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our
number one priority and we will not rest until we find him."
~ George Bush Jr. 2001-09-13

"I don't know where he (bin Laden) is. I have no idea and I really
don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."
~ George Bush Jr. 2002-03-13

On 9/11 Bin Laden was operating in a remote area along the Afghan/Paki border.

Right now, Bin Laden was operating in a remote area along the Afghan/Paki
border.


We have not been attacked since 9/11, as we are hitting them where they live.


Former SecNav Lehman, one of the 9/11 commissioners said a couple of weeks ago
that our intel community cannot tell the difference between a bike wreck and a
train wreck.

We're less safe now than we were on 9/11.

at least Bush has used the military for it's intended mission, and not as a
"meal on wheels" as the last one.

He's detroying the military. At least, that's what was published recently in
the Naval Preceedings.

Art,
I used to read what you had to say bout your service in WWII and respect what
you did, however, your attacks on Bush, have gone too far. He served, he
flew,
The F-102 was not a easy plane to fly. unlike kerry, who admitted he
committed
war crimes, aided the enemy, and claimed he was injured in combat, but never
missed a day due to those so called wounds that were treated with band-aids (
reminds me of Frank Burns of M*A*S*H, who applied for a Purple Heart after
getting hit with shell fragments, except it was he forgot to say on the
report
it was egg shell fragments) .

Bush acted after the attacks on 9/11, kerry wanted to wait and get the UN
involved. kerry voted against every weapons system that the military needed
and
has been using in Iraq. if he was so proud of his service, why did he try and
keep our troops from having the best equipment ? You would think, that anyone
that had been in combat, would know what it is like and want our troops to
have
what is needed.

You don't have the faintest idea of what you are talking about.
