What the fuck are you talking about he won by the smallest margin for a war time president in history. There are also 49 million people who think he has no business being president. Also if they think a land battle with iran will be like iraq they are kidding themselves. also they cant get their shit together in iraq and now they are going after another country. They are wasting your tax dollars and putting our military in harms way, really supporting the troops means not putting them into wars based on lies or for monetary gain of their friends.

You said it clearer than me! :-)
It is ironic that he was ever re-elected when you consider what the net results of the first term were - a total disaster, with the odd rare exceptions.
This is a guy who took a nation into a war on a totally false basis. The list is far too long, but includes the responsiblity for deaths of many thousands, a total disregard for any economic issues and also a load of fairly serious domestic issues that *may* just start to be addressed in his second term - tho I doubt it. Only my 2 cents worth - but I doubt he is capable.
Overall, I suspect Bush's second term to end with the US being in even a worse condition than now - although he may have started this term on a more subdued/conciliatory tone, - but doubt that will last.
It amazes me to hear Bush talk of "our aim is to give all people of the world freedom and democracy..." blah. WTF is he talking about?? :-) Don't he know that the majority on the planet actually do have freedoms - often far more than offered to US Citizens.
On the above... (I can't talk specifics cos it's not my biz and ain't at liberty to say), but I alone know of two people in the US today who most would say have "served their country well". Despite that they are currently being pissed on from a great height and no doubts whatsoever this conduct by Federal govt is clearly not within any standards of human decency or within any human rights guidelines. If that is the way the US govt treats it's "own", who did nothing but good for them, no other person has a chance. The word "freedom" and "values" are a mockery when used by the current Admin.
