“I am a progressive, but I believe that the Left has come close to psychosis in its hatred of Bush, particularly when Democrats whom liberals praise supported many of Bush’s policies, which they despise”.

Not only a progressive, but rational and honest. Now take the next step. True progressives support progress and the liberation of Iraq is progress. Not only did Iraqis choose democracy, they fought al Qaeda when it tried to prevent the establishment of democracy in their country.
Bush turned Iraq from one of the leading supporters and proponents of Muslim terrorism into an ally in the war against it. I’m not waiting for historians to tell me this was a monumental achievement of a transformative presidency.
