You were somewhat coherent yesterday with that "all is not lost" lament. What happened? Came back to "normal" today?! LOL!

A statement: Every person that still supports Bush43 is guilty of being in opposition of an American Constitutional Government premised on checks and balances to do all to prevent the existence on an Imperial Presidency or to be plain, a Monarchy with totalitarian powers.
In short they are traitors to the dream this country was founded on and are indeed adversial to Abraham Lincoln himself who nailed in a few words the essence of a free society with his immortal words: that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth...
To those that still support George W. Bush i say you are betrayer, you are treason. Max

"Waist Deep in the Big Muddy"

by Greg Palast

George W. Bush has an urge to surge. Like every junkie, he asks for just one more fix: let him inject just 21,000 more troops and that will win the war.

Been there. Done that. In 1965, Tom Paxton sang,

Lyndon Johnson told the nation
Have no fear of escalation.
I am trying everyone to please.
Though it isn’t really war,
We’re sending 50,000 more
To help save Vietnam from the Vietnamese.

Four decades later, Bush is asking us to save Iraq from the Iraqis.

There’s always a problem with giving a junkie another fix. It can only make things worse. Our maximum leader says that unless he gets to mainline another 21,000 troops, “Iran would be emboldened in its pursuit of nuclear weapons,” and terrorists “would have a safe haven from which to plan and launch attacks on the American people.”

Excuse me, but didn’t we hear that same promise in 2003? Nearly four years ago, on the eve of invasion, this same George Bush promised, “The terrorist threat to America and the world will be diminished the moment that Saddam Hussein is disarmed.”
