Let’s review, shall we?

313 Dead.
1600 Wounded.
8000 Evacuated for med reasons.

NO WMD's.
NO Drone's.
NO Al Qaeda.

Traditional alliances broken; world opinion against us; and Iraq has turned into our economic black hole to the tune of 73 Billion with another 87 Billion requested by Bush* (some perspective, the US spent 27 Billion last year on Education).

Now can someone PLEASE tell me why Bush invaded Iraq?

1. It's very simple,

oil, oil, and more oil, and power, power, and more power! With a generous cup of imperialistic ambition thrown in.

2. They're still claiming al Queda links...

...of course, those have been debunked too, and now we can point to the current backtracking for any fence-sitters who still buy it.

3. The debunked Al Queda myths

haven't gotten much traction. Do you think the major media will pick up on the stories and put them on the air?

CNN has been pretty tough on Bush recently. Even John King has grown a backbone. Think he'll debunk the Al Queda connection?

7. NPR finally reported it this morning

11 stinking months too late, I might add.

6. Yes they are still claiming al Queda links??? WTF???

Why is that - are they stupid?? I just can't believe the hubris of these crooks sometimes.

4. The corporate media seems to be downplaying this story so far??

So it will be up to the Internet to get the word out. Let's keep this story kicked to the top. Otherwise, it may disappear and the next poll will still show 69% of the people think Saddam was repsonsible for 9/11...

5. WHY??? you ask why???

in order for war profiteers to profit, there must be WAR.
