End It Now!

End It Now!
by Paul Edwards | Jul 9 2007


The horrific disaster inflicted on Iraq and America by the most cynical, dishonest, and incompetent President in our history and his Lamebrain Trust must be made to end now.

Not some time later, not in months, not after the useless deaths of hundreds more young soldiers, but immediately, with as much efficiency and security as can be managed, and as much assistance and support as can be had from a world community that has long been sickened and appalled by Mr. Bush and his blundering falsity and shameless fraud.

It is now established fact that the attack on Iraq was made on the basis of outright lies.

1. There was no connection between the destroyers of the Twin Towers and Iraq: none.
2. There were no Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq and never had been: none.
3. Iraq had no capacity to attack America and no intention to do so: none.

The Bush regime's complex of lies caused us to launch an unprovoked blitzkrieg on an enslaved people in a militarily impotent country. Its staggering ignorance and wanton incompetence have created bloody chaos, guerrilla civil war, and profound hatred of America where none of that existed before, while destroying Iraq and its people. Its determination to steal the vast Iraqi oil potential for American Big Oil has caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of non-combatant Iraqis and thousands of our soldiers. And still, in the face of its humiliating, catastrophic failure, the psychopathic Bush regime would have us continue this unconscionable, inhuman, sanguinary insanity.

In the disordered minds of those vastly wealthy old draft dodgers of the Vietnam era--Bush, who evidently did his service in cushy country club bars on the Gulf Coast, and Cheney, who by his own admission, "had better things to do than to fight in Vietnam--it is far better that the children of America's poor continue to bleed and die killing thousands of Iraqis who want their country back than that America withdraw from the horrid bloodbath Bush/Cheney caused and turn the light of diligent investigation on the blatantly criminal and treasonous machinations of these two contemptible sociopaths that got us there.

Democrats must honor their mandate or face abandonment by the millions of us who trusted them as well as the certain, unequivocal condemnation of history. End it now!

1. I agree 100%
I have just posted similar thoughts on the GD board. The American people have to wake up and realize this isn't a war ON terror it is a war OF terror. This administration has used fear to control Americans since 9/11 and it has to stop. This war has us in a straight jacket. We cannot do one other thing until we stop pissing away our money, energy, and the lives of our young men and women on this pointless, illegal war. We elected the new Congress to get us out of this mess. Somebody has to stand up to the bully in chief and say ENOUGH!
