This is what I blame Bush for...

Marines say ‘Saddam is done’

A few men and boys ventured out, putting makeshift white flags on their pickup trucks or waving white T-shirts out truck windows.

“Americans very good,” Ali Khemy said. “Iraq wants to be free.”

Some chanted, “Ameriki! Ameriki!”

Many others in the starving town just patted their stomachs and raised their hands, begging for food.

A man identifying himself only as Abdullah welcomed the arrival of the U.S. troops: “Saddam Hussein is no good. Saddam Hussein a butcher.”

An old woman shrouded in black — one of the few women outside — knelt toward the feet of Americans, embracing an American woman.

I blame Bush for all this freedom, even when the left was claiming we should just let the butcher stay put to perchance nuke us.

Yall jess wrong. Bush went ahead and did the right thing despite yall's whinin'. Now we got Iraqis kissing our feet in thanksgiving - not because of you, but because of one guy. His name is George "Big Dubya" Bush.

Kerry HAS spoken out against Bushie (lack of) diplomacy. He calls it "amateurish" and fraught with potential long-term costs to our country if it goes too far. Kerry could certainly do better on that front.
