2006 Looks to be a difficult year for W

[Kulturkampf]

I think it will not be any tougher than 2001-2005.

During these years he had to deal with terrorism and foreign threats, as well as had to deal with an economy that was perceptibly damaged after the largest attack on US soil in history since the Civil War, (technically Pearl Harbor was not an attack on US soil, but rather an attack on a US territory being Hawaii was not yet a state).

It will be nothing new.

More slop politics, and that is it.
