Bush promised the Iraqis freedom, when will they get that freedom?
There are millions of Iraqis who do want to be free, free from the failed nation that the Bush Administration has turned Iraq into.

And yet, nations all over the world are restricting Iraqi refugees and the Bush Administration seems to want to pretend that there are no Iraqi Refugees at all, even though Iraq's Refugee problem is about as bad as the Palestinian Diaspora in 1948.

Bush promised the Iraqis freedom, when will they get to be free of the failed nation that was formerly their home?

1. For Iraqis, it's 9/11 every day!

Must Watch Video

Shortages; lack of electricity; potable water; tanks rolling through the streets night and day; gunfire and explosions. Iraqi health care in shambles. 200 bodies turn up daily in the Baghdad morgue. For Iraqis, it's 9/11 every day.

2. Bush has to wait on that shipment of Hershey Bars from Mexico.
It's been lost for three years. You know - the Hershey plant that used to be in Pennsylvania but found it more profitable to move to Mexico.
Oh, and the flowers keep wilting before they get to Baghdad.

3. They will probably get that freedom when the oil deal has been signed....
However, I am hoping that the day of the oil deal does not come anytime soon... Even though I do want to see the Iraqi's get their freedom..

4. BushCo will stay until every drop of oil is gone, they'll keep finding excuses
to stay, a surge, bombing Iran will be a good one for them to expand the war for profit. As corporations like Hallibuton, Blackwater, DHB Inc., KB&R, General Electric, etc...keep making billions off our tax dollars that congress keeps feeding them through calling it "funding our troops" they want to continue it forever...so keep the occupation going.
