No Miserable failure..

War is an imperfect science, but the Bush administration is actually doing pretty darn good all things considered. The Fourth Rail has a good disccusion about this tonight.

the fourth rail: The Politics of Failure

When we invaded Iraq, I figured we would be lucky to gain control of the country without losing 1000-1300 soldiers.. If Iraq had put up a sustained defence, I am certain we would have. We did incredibly well. It is still a war, and war is ugly. The fact that it is ugly doesn't mean that the Army or the President are failing to do their jobs.

It's not a video game, it is a war. In war, people try to kill, and sometimes they succeed.
