The UN is using * as a photo op in order to "milk the rat" until he's out |
|
of office.
UN members are offering their assistance to the US w/the caveat of a UN resolution, which the Chimpster has turned down time and again because he doesn't want to share in the oil profits.
UN to Bush: Call us when you need us. Otherwise, you're on your own, pal. Maybe your coalition members can rescue you. Bon chance.
What does the Chimp do? Calls up more reserves and Guard units for 16 month deployments. Won't that work wonders for recruitment purposes.
Chimpy, suffering "illusions of grandeur" migranes, thinks he can bring down anti-coalition countries like France by not drinking wine and refusing to allow foreign exchange students into the country. The mind boggles.
Meanwhile, France can obliterate the US by letting the Chimpster be the Chimpster as he continues to bankrupt his country with a half trillion dollar deficit, and lay waste to our ever anxious trigger-happy active duty, Guard and reserve units, who are spread ever-so-thin about the planet.
Our military will continue to piss off the Iraqi population, the Iraqi population will double their attacks on our exhausted soldiers, to 30 per day, resulting in greater casualties, and what happens to Bush's poll numbers? In die toilette.
Election comes, and Bush is toast. At least he smiled for the UN's camera.

1. I suspect that unemployment numbers will go down |
|
When all them military reservists are shipped to Baghdad. And Bush Co. will say, see my tax cuts are working, unemployment is going down.

7. Unemployment Numbers Will Also Decline |
|
as the number of people eligible for unemployment insurance decreases.
In other words, the number of long-term unemployed has grown to astronomical proportions and these people are not counted as unemployed.
So Bush can claim declines in unemployment but in reality the unemployed are no longer counted.
It is so easy to solve problems when one can sweep them under the rug.

8. Our "weekend warriors" have/had other jobs and businesses |
|
Their being absent from their means of real income for 16 months is going to be hard for employers/demographers to ignore. Their family income level will drop, the overall poverty rate will increase as spouses stateside cope to make ends meet. The stress on our social services infrastructure will likely rupture what little support states have left to give to families in need as a result of never-ending deployments.
Anticipating cause/effect relationships was never one of Chimpy's fortes.

5. 51% disapproval says Americans don't care what potatoes are called |
|
Get them an exit plan and a balanced budget, with 9 million people back where they once had been--employed--and they'll talk reelecton.
The French have finessed Bush so artfully--kissed him on both cheeks and handed him his own gun to do himself in.
Schroeder, likewise, acted his part well--handshakes the "rez," signaling to Americans to "Come visit Germany! The Chimpy says he luvs us, so you can, too!"

4. As soon as Shroeder started making offers |
|
... for co-operation in Iraq, I realized these leaders intended to milk Bush. I love it. And the more good PR they milk from his petulent self, the more Bush suffers.

6. Schroeder could have removed German soldiers from US bases today |
|
and the US would be up Shit Creek.
A lot of people, ethnocentric US editorial writers in particular, don't yet understand that the US isn't in control of anything. The UN has the US by the balls.
