  Bush calls critics of the Iraq war "irresponsible". I'll tell you what's irresponsible.  Starting a war under false pretenses, faulty intelligence, and outright lies, now that"s irresponsible. Did I say "irresponsible"? It's far worse than that. Thousands are dead. A country is slowly being destroyed. Physically, it's Iraq, and morally it's the United States. What are supposed to be policies, tactics, and strategies  to ameliorate terrorism have in fact served to exacerbate it, and there is no end in sight. We are making more enemies than friends, and no good will ever come from that. Saul of Tarsus saw the error of his ways. Is there any hope for George of Texas?  

 

War and Peace

General Petraeus and his retinue of assorted flunkies appeared before the United States Senate yesterday. He told them how it is and how it will be in Iraq. The war will go on to suit his timetable, seeming to be unconcerned about how the people he supposedly works for feel about it.

There was talk of agreements they may enter into with the Iraq "government". This did cause concern among some of the Senators who may be worried about "advice and consent" as is written in the Constitution of the United States, referred to below.

 

"Clause 2:
He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur----------"

 

I awoke in the middle of the night with a vision of the surreality of the whole proceeding. Somehow it morphed into visions based on the strange and disturbing Patrick McGoohan tv show, "The Prisoner". 

 

Are we prisoners of the "Military-Industrial Complex" that we were warned about by President Eisenhower? More and more it would seem so. Can we afford another 4-8 years of the same love of war and disrespect of the Constitution as we have had from the BushCheney gang?

 

It could be disastrous to the vision of our forefathers and their genius.

How long will it be?

We have three candidates for President of the United States. We have three time frames for exiting Iraq. 1. Almost never. 2. Sooner than that. 3. Maybe sooner yet.

How many die under plan 1?

How many die under plan 2?

How many die under plan 3?

How many children of those in power who make these decisions will die in Iraq?

My guess is NONE.

Bring back the draft. NO EXEMPTIONS.

This will end the war soonest.

BELIEVE IT.

 

 

 

The War and Praytellus

The surge will work even if it takes 100 years.

McCain, war lover

If you love war, you love McCain. If war without end is what rings your bell, then John Wayne McCain is your guy.

You might ask why big bad John hasn't signed on to the new GI Bill to take better care of Iraq/Afghanistan veterans. Could it be as a Republican he is loath to raise taxes to give proper care and benefits to veterans? Does he just not give a damn? He suffered, so they should suffer?

This is beyond  understanding.

I'm very sorry he suffered, but did he learn nothing from it?

Is there any doubt as to the direction the economy is headed? Seven years of Republican irresponsible rule, and down we go.

Save your money.

Into the Sunset

Let us hope and pray that when the election is over,

John Wayne McCain rides off into the sunset and

spends the rest of his many days among the cows

and the cactus.

 

Better for him.

 

Better for us.

 

Better for Peace and Prosperity.
