Bush has lost the PR war in Iraq. We didn't get the WMD we used as the excuse to legally invade an innocent foreign country and whether or not we're succeeding in democratizing that country as a bonus, we screwed up and should just admit it and make our exit at the first possible opportunity. It doesn't really matter that we were spending billions to keep Saddam neutralized behind his borders and were constantly having to smack down his forces shooting at our pilots - refusing to abide by the no-fly-zone agreed to in the first Gulf War. Forget the fact that the oil-for-food program "sanctions" were not only personally enriching Saddam Hussein and his sons, but also a number of UN oversight committee members as well - not to mention he was trading oil for practically everything he wanted BUT food. I mean you can't eat Yellow Cake Uranium can you?
Nope - George is on the ropes where he belongs because he just couldn't let Iraq alone after 9/11. He couldn't just stay on task to get Bin Laden in Afghanistan and not make the classic military mistake of dividing our forces over two disparate fronts. He's pig headed I tell you. Him and that snooty Rumsfeld probably thought they could get away with killing two birds with one stone - using terrorism and nation sponsors of terrorism as a blank check to knock off the head of Al Quaeda and that cocky little dictator Saddam Hussein who kept laughing while he publicly stuck his finger in the eye of the most powerful nation on Earth. Nope, Texans don't go for that stuff - no way, no how!
Now Saddam Hussein wasn't hurting anybody except his own people right? Why should we care about his chemical weapons attacks wiping out whole villages, hundreds of thousands of people in mass graves, daily maiming and torture of thousands in his gulags? It's lame to attack Saddam because he was harboring terrorists, paying bounties to families of suicide bombers, had never given up on developing WMD and co-incidentally had a pretty significant grudge against the US after his Kuwait invasion was handed back to him as a bunch of smoldering hulks in the desert. Why would that make him want to get even with us? If he did manage to salvage a few warheads with nerve gas, or even had the makings of a nuke, why on Earth would he want to share that with suicidal fanatics who want to kill lots Americans any way they can? After 9/11, why take any of that too seriously?
None of that matters anyway though, because Bush lied! We didn't find WMD so he tricked us all. He's evil and he's not our real President either! Al Gore is our real President! You can bet he wouldn't have attacked Iraq, maybe even the Taliban for that matter. The Taliban didn't ride planes into the Twin Towers! What are we doing attacking them and disrupting their country? They didn't need or want democracy in Afganistan!
Who are we to stump for democracy in the world anyway when it took a law enforcement act by the Supreme Court to put an end to the bickering about who was our real President? And we still didn't get it right! Because he is the illegitimate-President-George-Bush, he deserves no credit for reformatting two hostile governments into new pro-US democratic nations smack in the center of the Middle East - and on the borders either side of Iran mind you! Now there's a real sponsor of terrorism we need to make sure we send a clear signal to: "We mean business over here fellahs. If you don't stop trying to hoodwink everybody about your uranium refinement for harmless electrical power we'll be knocking on your door next." I mean who seriously believes a country swimming in oil needs nuclear power plants, right? Oh, sorry I forgot. That's what the UN believes and of course all those UN security council members who are helping poor old Iran with equipment for nuclear power. No matter what kind, it's good business and they have a right to profits by gum.
So George Bush, shame on you for attacking Iraq for all the wrong reasons and getting us mixed up in trying to change the balance of power in a region of Earth where dictators hold us hostage to oil and would love nothing more than to see Americans and Jews become extinct. And those Iraqis, they sure don't deserve to be free like Americans anyway. They're too poor and backward to care. So I say we need to pull out and right now! Thank God for people like Murtha and Kerry who know what's really important to Americans. I mean who wants to be sucked into some sort of World War III with Islamic Fascists who only want to kill us because we keep trying to free people from them? We need to applaud the American media too for publishing leaks to our defense plans, inflaming the Middle East against American "occupiers" and getting more of our soldiers killed so we'll all see the Iraq war is just another Vietnam we can't win. We'll all be taught a lesson - never again to be led astray by a rogue US President who forces our soldiers to fight a war just for ego, or oil! By the way, why are those oil prices going up if we're getting it so cheap after conquering Iraq? Better look into that one again for us Michael...
