America started an illegal and stupid war that is killing our troops and draining our treasury. We screwed up big time and made a horrible mistake. Like all situations where somebody has screwed up we need to deny. We need a scape-goat to blame and the Republican Neocons, patriots that they are, will, I know, gladly sacrifice themselves for us and take the fall. We declare that we make a huge mistake and were suckered by the Chimp and his crew of banana farmers. We vote out the Republicans calling shame shame shame, pull the troops, and leave, triumphant that America has righted it's sinking ship. We publish article after article to the world press about what assholes Neocons are and promise we have turned over a new leaf. We dismantle Haliburton and all the war spoils groups and donate their money to the UN. Then we promise to nuke anybody that ever starts another war and shoot anybody here in the US who tries to take us into one. We put Bush and the Neocons before the Hague. This will make the whole world smile and realize that truth really does mean something in the US. It will be a victory that resounds through history.

To Moonbeam,

In case you have not noticed Bush has already found his scapegoats-------its the democrats -----its all their fault once again.

If you don't believe me listen to Fox news as they expound that latest talking point. And if you don't believe Fox is fair and balanced, Rush can surely enlighten you and tell you not to do the drugs that surely inspired your rant. Actually make any Republican the scapegoat---what have you been smoking?

Bombers kill 77 at Iraq mosques

BAGHDAD - Two suicide bombers strapped with explosives killed 77 people and reduced two crowded Shi'ite mosques to rubble during prayers in a northeastern Iraq town....


It look like full on civil war...Yike!
Not only the death toll is getting bigger per incident, but it seem as if they are targeting the faction that is friendly to the US.

Not a civil war---------yet.

But how many more must die for a lie.

We Americans sadly only cry for the 2,000 plus we have lost. The more rational cry for all that needlessly die.

And Bush is making Saddam look like a amateur in getting people killed. Bush is a real pro at getting other people killed for his various brainfarts.------unless he is not otherwise occupied robbing the poor to give to the rich.

OK, so Iraq was a free nation before we removed Saddam? Free maybe for a few at the top. The fact of the matter is that even with the insurgency, fewer Iraqi's are dying every month than when Saddam was in power.

I would also like to see where we have an open policy of torture.

I'm sure you have some pre-war and post-war stats to back that assertion up, right?

And as for a policy of torture, did you not notice that your president threatened to veto a defense spending bill if wording was included that banned the use of torture? How's that NOT an indication of an open policy of torture?
