Bush is leading our country and the world toward a nuclear confrontation..
As Bob Dole might say, "You know it, I know it, the Congress knows it, and the whole world knows it..." Yet, nobody does anything to stop him? It is encouraging to see Ted Kennedy, Dennis Kucinich, and a few other Democrats speak out against this war in Iraq. Very few Republicans have the courage to do so.

But, somewhere in your subconscious, you know there is a possibility of a nuclear confrontation with George W Bush in charge. He is not a stable person. He is a megalomaniac. He cannot be trusted with the red button. Surely, the Congress must be aware?

3. Bringing on a nuclear war is a self-fulfilling prophesy of his version

of the Final Judgment. Why wait for God? Do it as God's agent and get the same results. And what do you care? You're Christian. You're going to heaven because you believe in Jesus and righteousness.

In a way, fundamentalist christianity aside, I'm reminded of the second Planet of the Apes with the small group of people gathered around the last nuclear warhead, chanting, "We worship the Bomb!" We're heading in that direction unless * is neutralized or his "toys" are taken away from him.

4. If anyone, I think the first person
who got up one day and thought, "You know, I think we could harness the power of the sun, if we really gave it a shot", is to blame for any nuclear confrontation we may have in the future. Sadly, our problems are far bigger than Bush.

anything, including the use of nuclear weapons. Beginning today, there will be desperate attempts made by THIS administration to 'save' bush's already failed administration and legacy. Desperate people will take desperate measures when THEY are going down. The last two years of bushco's term may be the MOST destructive of ALL, unless something is done by Congress.
