And the beat goes on and on and on...




How sad was it to watch general Petraeus come before Congress ONCE AGAIN with his hat in his hand, saying the same damn thing; we cannot pull out of Iraq right now because things are kind of fragile and it would be irresponsible and dangerous to do that right now. I suggest we wait another few months and see…

But sir, you have said the same thing every time you have come here and we have asked you – when is the war going to be over, when are we pulling our troops out, when will the Iraqis take care of themselves…

President Bush, predictably once again states that he will listen to the advice of the good general because the general is the one who knows the best course of action in Iraq at the present time…

The Wall Street Journal nods agreement and criticizes Democratic critics of the war as irresponsible politicos who don’t give a shit about anything except their own political future – what a crock of shit.

I read the Journal because I am a businessman but I have to question the sanity of its editorial board; any jackass, even Petraeus sees that the Iraqi factions are just playing us for more money and more time; rebuild everything, make us all rich and powerful and then get the fuck out.

This whole affair is beyond sad and pitiful; it is embarrassing. Even the soldiers in Iraq say get us the hell out of here – we are being used and abused for absolutely NOTHING (they are saying this on camera, on major networks).

AND the administration is asking for more BILLIONS to rebuild their police stations, etc. the same ones that they will blow up a few days after we build them…

Why are we as a people putting up with this? Are we just waiting for the elections – why, McCain is actually predicted to win and he WILL continue the war for another 100 years?

Our representatives in Congress have abandoned us and are trying to outdo each other in how much money will they give to each jackass that bought a home they could not afford – we are truly in a Twilight Zone!
