The Bush rightwing has completely failed. Why would anyone support the Bushie rightwing after what they have done to this country?

We are on the eve of the 5th anniversary of "mission accomplished" and now they say the debacle in Iraq will end up costing us three trillion dollars in debt. If you do the math that's half the wealth of the middleclass in this country gone to Iraq, Halliburton, Exxon, the Saudis, iranians, Hugo Chavez, Shell, Chevron, Blackwater, corrupt Iraqi warlords, crooked contractors and arms dealers.

We also have to pay for medical care for some 50,000 vets with blown-off limbs, brain injuries, etc. Thousands have already committed suicide, thousands more probably will.

Ten billion per year in recruiting costs to try and bribe and con less and less qualified men into being sent to Iraq to throw away even more lives.

And look at the Middle East. 4,000,000 displaced Iraqis. Iraq the #2 most corrupt country on earth. Infant mortality the highest on the planet. Infrasctruture in tatters despite record windfall profits for the poil companies and arms dealers.

IT ALL NEEDS TO STOP. WE CANNOT AFFORD IT. WE ARE BROKE.
