Spin it!
No WMDs
No Link to 9 11

Outside of the fact the PNAC wanted us there and Dick Cheney had an Iraqi
oil field map on his desk (3/01 from Paul O'Neil's book) why are we there?

1,300 Americans Dead
10,000 w/out limbs or eyes
bin Laden still breathing
100,000 Iraqis dead

What am I missing?

2. What are you missing?
The same thing I'm missing -- our democracy.

4. The sense of outrage from the .5 of this nation who'd glady sacrifice sons
and daughters and innocents half a world away in the name of bush, all the while preaching to you about the sanctity of life.

5. So many lies that it has been hard to keep up
Edited on Fri Jan-14-05 12:29 AM by zulchzulu
A segment of Bush's speech on March 19, 2002:

"Many Iraqis can hear me tonight in a translated radio broadcast, and I have a message for them. If we must begin a military campaign, it will be directed against the lawless men who rule your country and not against you. As our coalition takes away their power, we will deliver the food and medicine you need. We will tear down the apparatus of terror and we will help you to build a new Iraq that is prosperous and free. In a free Iraq, there will be no more wars of aggression against your neighbors, no more poison factories, no more executions of dissidents, no more torture chambers and rape rooms. The tyrant will soon be gone. The day of your liberation is near. "

No medicine or food (Red Cross and others have left)...plenty of countless dead innocent Iraqis...poisoned rivers from our weapons...executions, torture chambers and rape rooms in prisons we control...we have spent billions on our apparatus' of terror to KILL any notion of "liberation" and fanned the flames to spawn new terrorist recruitments and open Pandora'a Box.

The administration thinks they are above the law, which would define them as "lawless men" in an illegal, endless quagmire for PNAC and Halliburton's profits over the dead bodies of our sons and daughters trapped in a back-door military draft. All done by a man who was too cowardly to serve his own nation when it was his time to serve and LIE about a man who did serve honorably...and the victory was won by the rape of democracy by his minions.

Lady Liberty may soon be in a casket that will not be able to have the picture taken for fear that we might learn the truth.
