"The new money for the Iraq occupation comes on top of the $50 billion in supplemental war funding that the Congress had already approved for the current fiscal year, after spending $100 billion last year. And the administration says it will be back soon seeking another $50 billion for the coming fiscal year. All of this spending is in addition to the record $439.3 billion defense budget the president submitted to Congress." John Nichols, Three Years of War With No Checks, No Balances, The Nation, 3/18/06
George W. Bush & the NeoCon cabal under him (or over him) wanted to invade Iraq...WELL BEFORE all of the "bad intelligence."
The President’s NeoCon gang [Rove, Perle, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, etc.] were licking their lips WELL BEFORE 9-11.
George W. Bush placed America in a messy and bottomless bog in Iraq.
The Iraq bog is not limned by the Long War President as a boondoggle, but as another important (but lethal) chapter of American history that he believes will turn the pages of Freedom and Democracy.
But the melody of the old tune is changing.
Yes, the U.S. will remain until there is “VICTORY”.
But it is now the Iraqis who must take charge and decide if
they want to live in unity AND peace OR war.
The Long War President is greasing wheels of the cart which will turn and shuttle troops out of Iraq just in time for the 2006 elections.
Iraq is over.
Iran is before us.
America and the world will be Bush-Whacked once again!
BUT THE AMERICAN PUBLIC MUST RAISE THEIR VOICES AND CAST THEIR VOTES TO PUT A STOP TO THIS DESPOT AND HIS FOLLOWERS!
