Probably a large 'L' Libertarian (ie: Libertine), as usual. :)
Seriously. This is an interesting development. The ultimate fall-out of our efforts in Afghanistan, Iraq, etc., won't become evident for many years, but I think President Bush will go down in history as being the one who was responsible for being the impetus that brought the Middle East out of 7th-century barbarity and into the 21st century thereby protecting Western Civilization from disaster.
Unfortunately, unlike President Bush who takes a long view (future good), it appears as if at least 1/2 of America is only capable of seeing to the end of their noses (the present).

And that my friend is the REAL reason we invaded Iraq! Will this work out? I seemed to have misplaced my crystal ball so I can't say. This is what the President means when he says this will be a long war.
