==Talk Back: Iraq war

As the third anniversary of its beginning nears, we invite you to share your thoughts on the Iraq war.

We are only in there so Bush can make his friends billions while the rest of us pay the price for the rest of our lives. He needs to have accountablility for his errors

59. "Bush spending 'political capital' on war" article at site

From the Chicago Tribune

Bush spending 'political capital' on war


By Mark Silva
Washington Bureau

March 21, 2006

WASHINGTON -- In his first press conference after reelection, President Bush boldly proclaimed: "I earned capital in the campaign, political capital, and now I intend to spend it.''

In the ninth press conference of his second term today, with Bush's public approval ratings resting at the lowest point of his presidency, the president conceded: "I'd say I'm spending that capital on the war.''

The pace at which Bush is spending that capital—with the president aggressively pursuing public support for a war that has lost the support of a majority of Americans surveyed—can be measured in this week of unrelenting presidential messages as the war enters its fourth year:

With his radio address to the nation on Saturday. With a personal statement delivered on the South Lawn of the White House on Sunday. With a speech on Monday in Cleveland. With this press conference announced last-minute today. With another speech Wednesday in West Virginia.
