Why does the party affiliation of the vehicular manslaughterer make a difference? Because you have brainwashed yourself, like some hateful Al Qaida member, into hating anything on the other side of the aisle? You and I are different. I have best friends who are Republicans. I am not against Republicans. I even like many Republican politicians. But I am firmly against this Texas oil mafia who has swept in, smeared John McCain, stole the nomination then stole the White House by committing massive voter fraud in Florida. Then ignored terrorism, let us get hit on 9-11 by a friend of the Bush family's minions, then covered up and - after a brief unified, just war in Afghanistan, took off into some neocon fantasy. In 2004, Bush-Cheney deserved to be fired, but another smear campaign and they eked by into another four years, despite all kinds of dishonorable BS. So now is the time for We The People, the honest majority, to flex our muscles of opinion and get rid of these ripoff artists. But that doesn't solve all our problems. Iraq is a huge problem now thanks to Bush-Cheney. Iraq is no fantasy but a painful, and seemingly endless harsh reality. The Bushies claim the troops are on their side. But if you know the grunts and jarheads, you know that more than anything they want to get it over with then get back to humping and bumping. Because so long as they're stuck over there, they know they're losing whatever they had back home. Huge divorce rates and wives cheating on troops back home. Huge lack of beer and poontang. Sadly, Bush has put the grunts and jarheads in a position of an endless unwinnable war. Of course Halliburton wins though, which pisses the troops off immensely since HAL grunts make 150 K a year and get cold beer and air-conditioning. They're not stupid. They love kicking ass but they also know how corrupt the leadership in the WH is now. And the American People are figuring it out too.
