His views on Iran, Iraq (because the media likes to show it so negativly) and a lot of issues facing the US back at home are dead on. I'm no fan of the Iraq war and was opposed to it since day 1 but nevertheless, the media is a complete joke in covering what is going on there. From day 1 it's always been the negative and the killings that has always made news over what good has been accomplished (Rebuilding schools, infastructure etc). It seems the media simply covers what gets raitings, and since suicide bombs outweight kids going to school and women voting and a lot of the good that is getting accomplished, the media is a joke.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but last I heard the infrastructure is in a lot worse shape now than it ever was under Saddam. If the Yanks have been successful in rebuilding anything, they were the ones that destroyed it in the first place. Kids always went to school and women were allowed to vote before the invasion so if it's happening now, it's not exactly an accomplishment.
It's a shame that left-wing prick George W. Bush has bought into this whole "it's not going well" mindset. I believe today the word he used was "horrific". The left-wing media strikes again.
