President Bush says there is still more to accomplish in Iraq so he has vetoed Congress.

Let's review what we have accomplished so far:

Possibly as many as 1 million Iraqi dead, 4 million fled or internally displaced.

Over 2,000 physicians killed, 250 kidnapped and 18,000 fled.

Over 300 academics assassinated and thousands fled.

One hundred journalists and 37 support workers killed; a number higher than any other war on Earth.

The destruction of monuments and archeological sites of the cradle of civilization and of history, in general.

Sectarian strife, militias, introduced with the invasion, between peoples who had lived together for 1,000 years.

Ongoing suicide bombings in a country where they were unheard of.

Rigged elections, the results achieved by threats, bribery, threat of ration card confiscation.

Abu Ghraib's torture, forever the U.S. Army's image in the Middle East.

The disappeared in the thousands.

Destruction of an entire civil society with damage to every institution, costing hundreds of billions of dollars to fix.

Missing Iraqi aid in billions of dollars.

The illegal rewriting of constitutions, both Iraqi and American.

The installation of a quisling government with loyalties largely, to anywhere but Iraq, and an American government with loyalties largely to big business.

Committing Nuremberg's ``supreme crime,'' a war of aggression, based on a pack of lies.

Demands for impeachment increasing by the day.

Destruction of America's and Britain's image for generations to come and the inability of their citizens to feel safe anywhere.

A death toll heading toward 4,000 dead U.S troops - admitted to - and thousands horrifically injured.

A trillion dollar debt.

Near universal loathing of America.

And President Bush wants to continue this war and occupation indefinitely.

Near universal loathing of America

A trillion dollar debt.

Do you recall how after 9/11, nearly every nation on earth, even traditionally unfriendly Arab, Asian, and Eastern European countries, offered their unconditional support in a (legitimate) offensive against the Taliban and Al Quaeda? Of course, neither Bush nor the neocons really cared about the Taliban or National Security (the CIA and the State Department practically had to twist the Bush administration's arms to make them budge on these). Instead, removing Saddam Hussein and making the Middle East safe for Israel were at the top of their agenda.

It really takes a first rate idiot's foreign policy to turn near universal pro- American sympathy into near universal hatred in 5 years. And that universal hatred includes traditional US allies as well.

As for the debt, well, in a phony "war on terror," I guess trumped-up GOP support for fiscal responsibility goes out the window as well.

Thanks, Shrub.

And for a long time. That makes them EXTREMELY dangerous. Even more dangerous than they were on 9/11.

We the people are screwed royally. We either get a military government after the cabal perpetrates another phony terror event or we live under the marxist wing of the NWO. Either way, life is going to suck.

Yeah. My dear ol Dad always told me: "If you are a man in this country and are not born rich, you will have to eat quite a large stack of shit sandwiches just to survive." Now I got the feeling they are going to really slather the shit deep on that bread.

Learn Spanish and get a tan so you can blend in with the new rulers. If Bush gets his way we will indeed be El Norte de Mexico.
