Ok George & Dick, I call your bluff
I'm calling 'bullshit' on you and the rest of your warmongers right now. I'm tired hearing you trying to invoke fear in my fellow Americans. I'm as equally tired of my fellow Americans who fall for your fearmongering and repeat it with no regard for the truth. The jig is up, guys, give it up. You're too transparent.
I'm tired of hearing you use the deaths of my fellow Americans on Sept. 11, 2001 as an excuse for your illegal invasion and occupation of a sovereign nation. The truth is known. Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with the attacks of 9-11. You, however, seem to have a lot to hide. You ignored warnings for months, even a Presidential Daily Briefing entitled "Bin Laden Determined to Attack" on Aug. 6, 2001. You ignorance, arrogance and inaction make you just as guilty for the deaths of my fellow Americans.
I'm tired of hearing you speak about new tapes threatening terror attacks from Osama bin Laden. Osama bin Laden is DEAD, ok? Your very own mouthpiece, your 'catapultin' the propaganda' cronies over at Fox News reported this. Everyone seems to forget about that, huh? Well here it is:

"Fox News: "Bin Laden Already Dead"
Wednesday, December 26, 2001
Usama bin Laden has died a peaceful death due to an untreated lung complication, the Pakistan Observer reported, citing a Taliban leader who allegedly attended the funeral of the Al Qaeda leader.
"The Coalition troops are engaged in a mad search operation but they would never be able to fulfill their cherished goal of getting Usama alive or dead," the source said.
Bin Laden, according to the source, was suffering from a serious lung complication and succumbed to the disease in mid-December, in the vicinity of the Tora Bora mountains. The source claimed that bin Laden was laid to rest honorably in his last abode and his grave was made as per his Wahabi belief."http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,41576,00.html ======================================================================
I haven't seen a retraction of this story from Fox News, nor from the New York Times, who ran a story in July, 2002. Remember it? Here it is:

"The Death of bin Ladenism
Published: July 11, 2002
Osama bin Laden is dead. The news first came from sources in Afghanistan and Pakistan almost six months ago: the fugitive died in December and was buried in the mountains of southeast Afghanistan. Pakistan's president, Pervez Musharraf, echoed the information. The remnants of Osama's gang, however, have mostly stayed silent, either to keep Osama's ghost alive or because they have no means of communication." http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9405EFDE1230F932A25754C0A9649C8B63======================================================================
Your lies are wearing thin, guys. Can you see it now? Another lie that I'm tired of hearing, and this is where I call your bluff, is the lie that "they'll follow us here if we leave Iraq now." I call complete and total bullshit. We have no reason whatsoever to believe you. This administration has proven repeatedly that it can't tell the truth and can't be trusted. You need to bring our troops home... NOW.
I am tired of hearing some of my fellow Americans cheer for this war, ignorant of what the complexities and real horrors of war does to people and nations. Roughly 90% of these warhwaks have never worn the uniform of our military, much less seen combat up close and personal. These people don't know what it feels like having your city.. or your home.. bombed out and your friends, neighbors and loved ones killed by these bombs. But it's easy to say "let's bomb the shit out of them" when we're talking about somewhere half a continent away where we never see the carnage, death and destruction of these bombings. Maybe it's time some of you actually saw it. Does this mean I wish for an attack on American soil? Hell no, it doesn't! What it means is that many of my fellow Americans will learn what they are doing and condoning. They'll see, hear and feel the terrors of war firsthand. Sometimes hands on personal experience is the *only* teacher. This is one of those times.
What would you, my fellow Americans, do if this happened, if we were to leave there and they followed us here? Would you cower down and live under their rule... or would you stand up and fight the invading forces, even though you're not in the military? Would you try to protect your family, your home, your friends and your town? Wouldn't you then be called an 'insurgent' by the invading forces?
Here is my pledge to you, to my fellow Americans, to future Presidents and to the rest of the world. You bring our troops home now, and if any terrorists follow us here, I will personally stand up and fight them right along with you. I will organize a militia in my county and in surrounding counties, and we will fight them to the death. I know that millions of my fellow Americans will do the same. You won't even have to pay me. I freely and willingly volunteer, as a proud American, to defend my Country against any and all invaders. Why would I have to volunteer this way? Because I'm too old to join now, for one, and I'm not in the best of physical shape either due to two major neck surgeries. I *am* capable, however, of helping to defend my little piece of the world here, if need be. There are millions more out there just like me, too.
I've called your bluff, guys. Bring our troops home... and we've got their backs if the terrorists follow them home....
