The remedy, silly twit, is to: impeach Bush and Cheney and clean out the corrupt Republican machine. get the heck out of Iraq. make energy independence by the end of the decade a must for the US. investigate, indict and jail the management of war profiteers. balance the budget When the progressive were in charge, you silly twit, we had Pax Clintonia. Our financial situation improved every single year, we weren't embroiled in war, we had a FEMA that could be relied upon headed by an experienced manager, we were paying down debt instead of adding $2 TRILLION onto it and poverty was declining. Consumer confidence was high, optimism was high, the US's image in the world was very good. You are simply blind to reality because you are so tied to rightwing claptrap propaganda. Why don't you look for the truth for a change instead of spreading bile and hatred along with your corrupt little cronies? The US military/administration is not to be believed any longer. It has cried wolf one too many times from the WMD hooey to the flags and flowers hooey to the head of the snake hooey to the handing over sovereignty hooety to the, 'we got Zarqawi's 2nd in command again and again and again' hooey. It's simply hooey. It's civil war in Iraq, it's partitioning in Iraq, it's a chaotic mess in Iraq. Do you see the militias on the nightly news? MILITIAS fighting with the US and British troops....yet again. Those are Shiites for goodness sakes. It's unbelievable. The most expensive, best equipped army the world has ever seen and it's being ground down by a bunch of guerrillas in a third world country decimated by decades of war and sanctions. HOOEY and dangerous HOOEY to boot.

There's a #3 guy that's just been waiting to become #2 - and now he is. Same with the #4 guy, #5 guy, etc. We've created an extreme natural selection of terrorists in Iraq. If they survive, we've obviously selected a better terrorist than the one we've killed or caught that he replaced. Someday, we'll have selected a group smart, tough and viscous enough to hurt us here at home again. Great progress! How many times have we already taken out the #3 guy? 5?

Nahh.. he'd just get their sympathy as an "insurgent".. You see, we can call them "terrorists" any more (or we're not supposed to in our official cables).. They're "insurgents".. Just like we're not allowed to use the word "Jihadists" any more. Never mind that they CALL THEMSELVES this.. and have their clerics giving speeches about waging Jihad in Iraq... Nope.. They're "insurgents"... But yes.. Azzam's a big prize we've been trying to catch for months now. Gotta have Zarqawi a bit worried, especially if they think he's not dead.. (and I'm not about to confirm or deny this.. ;0) Hawk
