W Bush has brought great Shame to America.......
There is no way to hide it. The CAN DO America, under Bush, can't.

Bush couldn't protect us, worse, he hid the warning.

Can't get even with Usama, Still on the loose thumbing his nose at us.

He has taken this Nations Helm and run USSAmerica onto the shoals of
Debt, Waste, War, etc

He cannot balance the budget

He cannot obtain a Peaceful Iraq,,,, too much anger on both side,

He cannot explain his actions properly, Cannot answer questions at a PC even.

He had a lot of friendly Nations to work with, but started to bully them with anger and resentment, Hardly StatesManesque... result, we are all alone.. for the most part.

Come, we go hunt for ideas to change our "Coach". Enough of Losing Seasons. He is a very poor bet. Look at his record, all losses.

1. I have to agree with you.
This humiliation of Iraqis is completely devastating. * likely knew at his press conference about this scandal and he said nothing. What a disgrace.

3. you must be thinking of honor and integrity
because that's what he's given us, to make up for the great shame still felt from our last horridly horny president.

we had to face the great shock of the word 'blowjob'.

now the word of the day is 'torture'

8. For years the Pubs dumped on President Bill Clinton, gave themselves
many laughs/entertainment.

They bet on Bush and his "Honor and Integrity" theme... hook, line, and sinker. They were laughing at poor Bill and his private daliance, many of them were secretly jealous I have to suspect.

Bush has brought great DisHonor and Shame to our shores where only a little existed before. Now its ALL OVER the Fucking World. Pity our Troops as they prepare to save the "Last bullet".

There has to be a way to rid ourselves of poor leaders a lot quicker than this every 4 year thing.

Where is the vote of Confidence like they have in other countries?

4. I was listening to CSpan this morning; they were talking about the prison
where the abuse took place. Same place that Saddam's people tortured Iraqi's in the past. The guest (can't remember who) talked about the (bad) karma of the building, and how ironic that the torture continued with Americans in charge.

I couldn't help but think: if the US had demolished the building totally...a year ago, just to prove to Iraq that that painful part of their past was gone. Instead, we only reinforced their worst fears.

Thanks a lot Bus*h/Dick-head/Rummy!

7. Unfortunately...
The abuse is not limited to that location,
so tearing it down would not prevent anything.
The torture and abuse is widespread and common practice
in Iraq and Afghanistan, and has been from day one.
The tone was set in Afghanistan and continued in Iraq.
It is a clear representative of what a sick and depraved
culture we hav in the United States. They, the abusers, represent us.
A country gone bad. A country whose number one export
to the rest of the world is pornography. Twisted, sadistic
and immoral values rule our culture under a thin veil of
hypocritical "x-tianity."
Talk about twisted.

15. He is a reflection of our MASS delusion
He is the manifestation of a culture that has been
crumbling for years. We at DU are the minority Opi.
The majority of 'murikkkcans secretly approve of him.
He allows them to avoid the fact that they are
ignorant beyond belief, arrogant and self-centered.
He is them.
That is what I see, otherwise, they would be in
the streets demanding a change, but they aren't.
Why? because they are just as depraved as he is.
How else can we explain what is being done in our name?
They may whine about him, but notice they don't
actually try to stop him...

20. New Zealand?
That's what I am thinking...
Personally, I can not stand the thought
of living here another year.
If the only way I can stop being part
of Pax Americana is to withdraw my taxes
from the MIC machine, then by God, that
is what I am going to do.
Plus, I am really starting to hate Americans.
I think they are among the ugliest people
on the planet. Ignorant, arrogant, and I'll
say it again- DEPRAVED.
If they ever find a threrapist, it will be a lifelong
job for the doctor to heal their psyches.
Me, I aint waiting for that to happen-
cause the majority of them don't think
they have a problem.

9. Murkan Sheeple are like the John Purdue Club.
Gene Keady has had suck-assed seasons lately, and never taken Purdue to the NCAA finals. But instead of saying "Buh-BYE, don't let the door hitcha where fate splitcha" when he started making noises about going west this year, they made some deal to entice him to stay another year. with one un-promising year left on his contract, i'd had released him. sure, Gene's a nice guy, but he's lost what he had 25 years ago.

In much the same way, Shrubya has pounded this country into the dirt, and won't take us to the championship game, but the Sheeple still like him. Why? hell, I dunno...it can't ALL be about the blow-job...And here he has less than a year left on his "contract" and people are making noises like they don't want him to go.

They just cannot believe Coach Bush is ALL THAT BAD?

So far Losing seasons 3 years in a row.

Lost UkaBillion kala(dollars) down the tubes, approaching 3 trill.

National Debt up to $7 Trillion.

Get Kerry in there, at least he can pass, run, think, lead, and even, kick.

23. Not Denial, Stupidity.
Bush's Greek Chorus comes out and says "He's kept us safe from TERROR!" simply because Al-Kaseltzah hasn't hit us again. Never mind that it took them 8 years between WTC attacks, just the fact we haven't been hit AGAIN is "proof" that Bush is protecting America.

OK, then, John Kerry has done a super job of protecing the people of Mass. from Pirhana attacks when they swim. what's that? There are no Pirhana in Mass.? Well, see how good Kerry's policies on Pirhana defense have been?

Same bullshit when they say Bush has kept us safe from Terra-ists....

11. No S..t, It`s a family tradition.
In my opinion the Shrub family has caused more harm to our Nation along with the entire World than any other Family throughout the entire history of the World. They are WAR PROFITEERS in a class all thier own. Please go to < www.tarpley.net > for details. Click the unauthorized BIO, especially chapter 2, THE HITLER PROJECT. The sheer number of people who have died and suffered because of the greedy , self serving decisions this family had made far outnumbers the entirety of the worst of the ROMAN EMPIRE.I am talking about the worst of the ROMAN EMPIRE wich did have it`s good points at different times in history. Caligula and Nero come to mind. ...Oscar

13. Yes great shame
but how will we overcome the notion that being America means you never need to say you are sorry, or even that you were wrong? We don't just need a new leader, we need a new attitude.

17. Bush, short of Sempuku, hari kiri, has no choice to save his Honor and OUR
Nations Honor by Apologizing to the World for these Tortures, Take responsibility, and RESIGN en Mass. All of his staff, his appointments, etc.

Offer to pull out at the direction of the new Iraqi Govt. Let them decide if they want us to help rebuild and in what fashion. Let them dictate to us the direction to take. Make them our partners not our servants.

Will Bush do this?, Hardly. history will show defiance, denial, and Anger.

19. A New Leader would be a very good start.
All powerfull Nations have had great influence throughout the World. The U.S. has in the past, and can once again be a force for good in this World. Event the ROMAN EMPIRE at different times throughout it`s long history had a relatively positive impact at times on the condition of the World when you consider what was going on elsewhere. It very much depends on exactly who is running the show so to speak. Electing John Kerry as our next President will be a huge step in the right direction. ...Oscar

Courage and Passion, and the Wisdom it would require.
