End the damn war, for crying out loud....
Fighting for Democracy "there" and losing it "here".

Where are we getting 200 billion extra dollars? Off the backs of the middle class? We're the only ones paying fu*king taxes.

AND, I much rather support my fellow "law abiding" citizens who are suffering GREAT LOSSES from a natural disaster, than a country that will continue killing each other for another 2500 years after we leave. GEESH.

The absence of a strong Democratic voice in this mess is helping me understand anarchy and apathy. Our Dem leaders are part of the problem, not the solution. Bush is killing America, rather, being pecked to death by a duck! Why does everything have to be a sound byte or photo op.....???

Ok, gonna stop now before my head explodes :grouphug:

1. Your intro should be a tag line or
bumper sticker, its so appropriate. Wish I could print up my own. In fact, I think I'll try. I share your sentiments!

3. We want that fucking oil!!!
"Make no mistake. We invaded Iraq, by and large, to protect our strategic oil interests, to lock down that desperately needed 10 percent of the world's supply by whatever violence and blood and dead disposable U.S. soldiers necessary. And as a vicious adjunct, Bush recently signed the worst energy bill you will ever see in your lifetime: $12 billion worth of the most disgusting pork you ever laid eyes on, billions for oil and useless bridges and nauseating pet projects, and barely a penny of it goes toward renewable energy technologies or alternative fuels or conservation, and almost all goes toward BushCo's profiteering thugs in the corporate marketplace. Go, USA!" -- Mark Morford

8. *is confused*
"AND, I much rather support my fellow "law abiding" citizens who are suffering GREAT LOSSES from a natural disaster, than a country that will continue killing each other..."

I was not under the impression that the US were SUPPORTING Iraq.

That aside: Yes, end the damn war.

Remember Fallujah

Bush to The Hague!
