Bush's tax policies have not lowered your total tax bill, and the Iraq invasion has not decreased the likelihood of a terrorist attack.
State county and local taxes have been raised to compensate for the Bush tax cuts. The Bush tax cuts allowed the wealthy to keep more money, while the regressive taxes that were raised soak workers to make up the difference. Services that the government provided for middle income citizens have been cut back, forcing you to pay for services that tax dollars used to provide. It is very likely that the Bush tax policy has actually resulted in a tax increase for you.

The invasion of Iraq has provided the greatest recruiting tool for the Islamic terrorist organizations since the formation of Israel in 1948. The occupation of Iraq by the US is currently being linked to what is perceived in the middle east as the occupation of Palestine by the Israelis. The Iraq occupation has resulted in an increased terrorist threat for all Americans and our allies.
