Do you agree with Bush that, in the final analysis, the Iraq War - which has killed thousands of American, wounded tens of thousands of Americans, and killed and wounded hundreds of thousands of Iraqis - will be remembered as insignificant?

Yes, the Iraq War is trivial
No, the Iraq War will be remembered as a significant event
More like a coma

Whatever drug he's doing needs to be released to terminally-ill people for pain relief.

When this period of America is written, George W. Bush will be listed as president with a giant asterisk.

Here's an interesting interpretation of Bush's comment:

"Just A Comma: Dog Whistle Politics

A lot of people have been slamming Bush for his comment that Iraq is "just a comma". As an e-mail correspondent pointed out, this is another case where Bush is using code words to speak directly to his Christian right base.

The phrase is: "Never put a period where God has put a comma." Which is to say - it ain't over yet, and God may well make it better. So Iraq's bad, but if we trust in God, he'll make it better.

This is the thing about Bush - he is constantly littering his speeches with code words and phrases meant for the religious right. Other people don't hear them, but they do, and most of the time it allows Bush both to say what those who aren't evangelical or born again want to hear, while still reassuring the religious right wants to hear.
