I'm afraid we face a truly different kind of enemy
today....

One that will

Choose war over continued weapons inspections

Ignore the fact that the Iraqis were cutting up missiles

Bomb a sovereign nation indiscriminately weeks before illegally invading it

Impede seniors from importing affordable drugs from Canada

Illegally spy on American citizens prior to 911

Send our troops to battle without adequate body armor and hardened vehicles

Send only a fraction of the troops necessary to successfully carry out an illegal invasion and occupation

Present false evidence to the U.N.

Give no bid contracts to those who would abuse them and the American taxpayer

Try to bomb a news outlet in the ME

Condone torture in the name of the American public

Raid our treasury

Place illegal economic mandates upon the economy of a sovereign nation

Target civilians if "necessary"

Make the American people hated 1000 times worse in the ME

Pollute the earth with DU

Allow the use of chemical weapons in Fallujah and elsewhere

Allow people to die in the wake of hurricane Katrina

Allow HS to be used to track democratic senators

Stack the supreme court

Ignore the best generals our military has to offer

Carry out the neocon/pnac plan for global domination

Benefit from election irregularities and most likely fraud

Work against labor and generally strut around thinking he is doing the "right thing" when he is merely a puppet on a string.

4. "We have seen the Enemy, and he is Us"
Cannot remember who said that, but it says it all.

If these terrorists "hate us for our freedoms", so in the context of protecting us from "terrorists" who hate our freedoms, we take away all our freedoms, the terrorists have WON.

Logic 101. That is how I see it, anyway.

5. My vision when I think of these people
is of a group with their brains in vapor lock withering into one fledgling swarm of armless, legless slugs sliding around amongst each other feeding on Bush vomit.

OK so I went a little overboard
