Enough already.
I'm tired of hearing it. I really am. A lot of people may be wiped out tomorrow by the hurricane and all he can think about is Iraq.

Bush touts Iraq charter but warns of new threats

CRAWFORD, Texas (Reuters) -
President Bush on Sunday praised Iraq's draft constitution as a step toward full democracy and sought to play down the extent of Sunni opposition, but he predicted an upcoming referendum would spark a new wave of "atrocities."

"As democracy in Iraq takes root, the enemies of freedom, the terrorists, will become more desperate, more despicable, and more vicious," Bush warned.

The violence in Iraq is due to the US occupation, not some bogus US political construct.

5. Replacing the dictatorship with a Muslim theocracy. That's lots
of progress for 1800 American lives, over 100,000 Iraqi lives and 200 billion bucks. And the bleeding continues.

8. Calm down.
"As democracy in Iraq takes root, the enemies of freedom, the terrorists, will become more desperate, more despicable, and more vicious," Bush warned.

------------- Am I reading this wrong?

I think he's saying that all pukes will be moving to Iraq.

11. Islamic Republic, Republican voting district, what's the difference?
Oh, yeah, they say "Jesus" and the Muslim fundamentalists say "Allah." Maybe the Republicans hate poor people more and are a bit more racist.

12. You got that right.
How many times have you heard "raghead" coming from their mouths? I'd like to see them say that in Baghdad... cowards.

15. Oddly enough, we usually get upset that he doesn't address Iraq.
I guess whatever pisses us off, sets our priorities.

16. There is no democracy in Iraq as far as I can tell.
It's an islamic republic or dictatorship now, and one of my cousins from Ohio died to put this into place over there.
