Well, working past the usual monomaniacal Bush-hatred, we also get the usual elitism ("why can't the peons see the Truth like I do?")
If Iraq actually manages to become a stable and democratic nation, the Left around the world will take a hit it will never recover from.
These people want this war lost--ideally with fleeing troops and helicopters and a resigned president--more than anything else in the world.
But then, what do I know. I have no ability for independent thinking, unlike his own brilliant and nuanced mind, whose positions on pretty much everything I could predict with my eyes closed.
