For the country, definitely.
I don't see the problem with "war for fame" as he will be (in)famous for this for a long time. Terrorism and this war are the number one issues in the US right now. How would the election stack up with a huge deficit and nothing else in the way? I'm not sure on this point but I believe that Bush would be a lot worse (note that I did not mention the economy, although his foreign relations don't seem to be helping.)
I worded it incorrectly, I should have said, "war for oil money." I know that more oil is not a result of this, although a stabler supply may come in the long run. I know that Bush and a lot of his administration are invested in oil companies, and I also know that oil prices have, as a result of instability in the middle east, a shut down Iraq, and an oil giant shutting down (last one irrelevant to the war) gone to the highest point they have ever been, and I believe that Bush and/or some of his major supporters are making hundreds of thousands/millions/billions.
