Surprisingly, the current events do not seem to be helping GWB...
rather, the pundits are blaming him for not doing enough re Israel situation, his obsession with Iraq, his ill-advised remark in his state-of-the-union, "axle of evil," have come back to bite him for, by identifying the problem countries and then dropping the ball, he left these countries to their own devices, which have festered like boils in the Middle East.

I was concerned the recent escalation of events, which some are saying amount to WW III, would help shore up support for him as a "war president," an early October Surprise, and it still could but, instead, I'm hearing people are recognizing that he's responsible to a large degree.

1. Are you kidding,
news stations can't even decide how they're going to fit all the eruptions of violence in their broadcasts. And people would want more of this?

This is the psycho from hell that has caused it all.

4. Not anymore.
People are finally realizing he's the cause of fear, not the solution.

7. Are you kidding? War always increases support for repugs that's
why it's happening now. They need to take the focus off of the repugs performance. They need a war to get re-elected in Nov and to keep Dem's from asking questions about the crimes. They are about 3 weeks early on the war with Lebanon and Syria, but that is likely my miscalculation, they need extra time to get the stupid sheeple to get behind the war party.
