Throw in somewhere north of 13k civilian casualties so far, presently increasing at something like 400-500 a month, and things really don't look peachy.

yonmei's comment stands, they lost a regime which tortures people, and got... a regime which tortures people. Ok, the flag changed. Rumsfeld says it was a few bad apples, while burying official reports which trace it back to the Pentagon, and GWB says Rumsfeld is doing a grand job and everything's wonderful. We should all be happy and grateful and praise Bush to the ends of the earth.
