Exactly. I don't ever remember President Bush saying this was going to be over quickly. If anything, he's always said the war on terror and in Iraq would be long-term, and that we would not leave Iraq until the mission was complete. He's been nothing but honest in his statements regarding his Administration's committment, and warned the people of this country that it wouldn't be easy and there would be setbacks along the way. I don't know who these media nuts have been listening to, but it sure isn't President Bush.
They don't "listen" to any one. They pull their stories from dark places that civilized people don't discuss.
