Now after election ,MSM talking about Iraq mess !
Just like our failing economy ,unemployment and other problems within the U.S. .Suddenly the MSM is talking about the mess in Iraq .They wait untill we are stuck with this total failure of a president 4 years longer,to now bring up what a diasaster the whole mess is and how its going to get worst and may never get better. To add inslut to injury ,the chances of another 9/11 ,that will dwarf the frist one is a real and scary reality. How much blood will this white house have on its hands is unbelievable ,considering bush is such a religous man (cough ,cough, choke choke) If it was'nt so sad it would be laughable,this bad joke thats being played on the American people and the rest of the world !

they've ensured war, death, torture, suffering, misery (good stuff, really a lot of fun...if your the media...improves viewership).

2. Now that the Repugs own the whole enchilada
the MSM will have no choice but to focus on them and the Amercican public will finally start to learn the truth.

We need to help the MSM as much as we can, since we are now a primary source for news and information.

3. Sort of like Molly Ivins' "chicken killing dog" story. It will take longer
for it to sink in though. (For the stink to completely permeate)

4. The MSM is just under orders
to begin building the case for a face-saving U.S. exit from Iraq, in my own opinion.
Some Rethugs are already criticizing the war. I think that's part of their plan. When the criticism builds to a chorus, I believe B*shco will make a case for pulling out. This would be a popular move for them, plus they get to prepare the military for their next insane war in Iran, Syria, Cuba or North Korea.

tinfoil hat, anyone?

5. The war has been a success for Bush**-Rove. He got "re-elected"
based on "supporting of the commander in chief in time of war". So they can pull out now. Then as you say, fire up another one for the next Republican presidential candidate to get the flags waving agin.

6. Like the old joke when I got drafted in 1971
"What do you call 3000 people hanging from the underside of a helicopter?"

Answer: "An Orderly Retreat from Cambodia..."

I would suggest that all american soldiers, shoulder their weapons and walk, ride, stroll in an orderly fashion to the ports of Iraq and then demand to go HOME.

REFUSE to fight this phoney war. Just LEAVE. Safely, cover your asses - let the UN make the arrangements with the Iraq "insurgencies" to allow the troops free and safe passage to the Ports where the troops can wait to be ferried HOME where they can protect their country (according to their oath, of which I had to comply in the military) from threats without and WITHIN.

Not to mention natural disasters or our cities, nuclear dumps, ports here, etc. We NEED them here. They are NOT Halliburton Slaves working for peanuts to make Cheney and BUSH CO RICH.

The troops need to turn in their two week "I QUIT" notices and then GO HOME. REFUSE TO FIGHT A PHONEY WAR.

ALL OF THEM. NOW.
