Yet another right wing ignorant serf who cannot make an intelligent, coherent argument in any post. Why do you people bother writing if you're not going to bother reading? You are all a sad indictment of the decline of the USA. Small wonder that so many of you are considered quaint provincials by the rest of the world, a worrisome thuggish lot but no great shakes.

* Iraq is now a hotbed for terrorist activity and the focus of the global jihadist movement. President Bush and his cohorts assured Americans that the war in Iraq would make us safer. Hundreds of billions later, the exact opposite has occurred. Iraq has become the central focus of terrorist actions around the world and the top rallying cry for terrorists seeking to kill Americans.

* The war in Iraq has set back America's efforts to fight tyranny and spread freedom. Freedom starts with making the lives of the average Iraqi better, something we have yet to do. The failure to achieve genuine security has all but halted reconstruction. An oil-rich country suffers from gas shortages. The abuse at Abu Ghraib by American soldiers has led many in the Muslim world to view our actions and intentions with great skepticism. All of Bush's talk of liberty and freedom rings hollow without significant actions to show those in the Middle East that he means what he says and can deliver on his promises.

* Perhaps President Bush should ask his wealthy patrons to sacrifice for the war rather than the underpaid, overburdened soldiers and the already pressed middle class. As the war in Iraq (the one the administration claimed would "pay for itself") now exceeds $200 billion dollars, President Bush amazingly continues to push for permanent extensions of tax cuts for the wealthy and has made the privatization of Social Security—an additional $2 trillion debt load—his chief domestic priority. The numbers don't lie and reveal how hollow the President's claims of fiscal responsibility and deficit reduction really are in light of his policy decisions.
