2006 Mid-term election

I think there is a real misconception by the news media about what the 2006 midterm elections actually implied.
I have heard over-and-over that the elections were a statement by the American people of their disatisfaction with the way that the War in Iraq and the GWOT (Global War on Terror) was being prosecuted. I think that is completely inaccurate.
People will stick behind a losing team forever as long as they feel that the team is giving their all and everything's on the up-and-up. Look at Cub's fans. What unravelled before the elections is that the American people found out that they had been intentionally misled and lied to so that our government, in our names, could invade another soveriegn nation under completely false pretexts.
I remember a poll taken at least a couple years after the invasion of Iraq that showed that a full 70% of Americans believed there was a direct link between Hussein and the 9/11 disaster. This was not by mistake. This was a carefully orchestrated fraud on the American People, Congress, the UN, and the World.
When W finally had to come clean and say that there was no link there was an almost audible, "What??" out of the American People. Then he comes out and says, "I've never been 'stay the course'". Again, another big, "What???".
By the time the elections rolled around even the semi-informed couldn't believe a word out of anyone in this administration. If they said it was raining, I would stick my head out the window to double-check.
BushCo has lost ALL of their credibility. They cannot be believed by anyone, foreign or domestic.
I get no joy out of watching this death spiral because it's really the American people that have to pay for this lunacy.
Unless the unbelievable happens there will be no impeachment, which Congress is obligated to do whether they like it or not. Impeachment would set a precedent so that no other President would take such liberties with the constitution and our foreign treaties.
Just beware anytime someone in government says that we should do something because it'll show our 'National Unity'. It's BS. We as Americans need to think for ourselves and become more educated in the future.
So the next time you hear that the 2006 elections were a statement about how the War in Iraq was going think about whether it was that or the fact that you just don't trust George W. Bush, or anyone in his administration anymore.
