He Has Arrived



President-elect Obama and his wife, Michelle, called on President Bush and lady Laura Bush today in a White House visit that was part political ritual, an part introduction. Laura Bush and Michelle Obama talked about raising daughters in the nation's most famous house.
If folks had told me even 4 years ago I would live to see a pictures like this, I would tell them they were lying. Obama needs the nation's support. He has a long journey ahead. ALong with the puppy, iriegal needs to send him a bottle of Jamaica "overproof" rum mon.

It's All About You "Mr. Bush"

Well, it is quite obvious with anyone who listened to Dubyah's speech yesterday that it was all about him. It sure as hell wasn't about the military. As an ex military member, I support my brothers and sisters out there supporting this crazy "one man" war. When Dubyah reaafirmed his commitment to "accept no outcome but victory" in the war, I just felt the only other thing he could of done was smell his armpit and grunt.
I have to put up this quote because this says it all, "Bush's approval rating five years ago, at the start of the Iraq war, was 71 percent, and that 40-point drop is almost identical to the drop President Lyndon Johnson faced during the Vietnam War," CNN polling director Keating Holland said.
If you are progressing why are the numbers "regressing" Mr. Bush?
It is a slap in the face to leave those military members out there, just for your own political glory. Glory whick will not come before November.

The True Casualties of the War



On March 20th 2003, our Nation as we knew it changed forever. The main reason for the war (as told by our President) was the fact that Iraq possessed Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). This of course was in violation of the 1991 agreement.
U.S. officials claimed Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda had been cooperating. They claimed that we needed troops to go in there (Iraq) and stabilize the country ( a country traumatized by the tyranny of Hussein and Al- Qaeda). America was also told reasons for the invasion stated by officials included concerns over Iraq's financial support for the Palestinian suicide bombers, the severe violations of human rights abuse and of course setting up a democratic rule in the country.
Well, here we are 5 years later and still we are fighting and "endless war." A war that has killed hundreds (on both sides). We need to bring home our military members. The Iraqi people have long since hated the presence of the Americans there. It is no longer a matter of "protection, " it is a matter of intolerance. Our military are facing a "Vietnam" type existence. The faces of the people they are protecting, are similar to the faces of the Al-Qaeda that want them dead.
Saddam is Dead. Why are we still over there? 5 years later and no answers.
