IT isn't a pretty sight to watch our President have a little temper tantrum and claim he is "fed up" and "out of patience"...................we really don't need world leaders who will risk the lives of Americans and Iraqis on that basis. Bush is trying to "act tough" , but he has a bad acting coach or he is really just a spoiled kid who can't handle not having things his own way. The image he is projecting by his poor rendition of John Wayne is beginning to look pathetic.......Americans are picking up on the ineptness of the image. The illusion of George Bush, World leader has faded as 9/11 retreats into the history books. What we see is what we're stuck with....a spoiled son of a powerful man who is doing his father's bidding. I had some thoughts a few days back about Bush attacking Iraq over the existence of some barrels of deteriorated chemical weapons that was sold to Saddham by Bush's Dad, Rumsfeld and Cheney back in the "good ole days". ( actually it was a stint on Jay Leno ) Here is some levity about the situation..actually, there's a lot of truth in this poem!! LOL; Last month, Iraq delivered to the United Nations a >12,000-page report denying it had weapons of mass destruction. Knowing >President Bush does not have the attention span to read 12,000 pages, >the Iraqis also provided an executive summary written in the style of >the president's favorite author, Dr. Seuss. I have obtained a copy of this >document from an anonymous source deep inside Vice President Dick >Cheney's secret hideout.
