“We haven’t gotten to the point yet where the new government is sitting down with our commanders to come up with a joint way forward. However, having said that, this is a new chapter in our relationship. In other words, we’re now able to take a new assessment about the needs necessary for the Iraqis.” - George W. Bush (source)

Well, it’s not like we’ve been there for over three years with over 2400 of our service members dead without a plan for success of this mission, is it?

He is the most worthless excuse for a President in my memory. Nixon wasn’t this bad. He ignores laws when it suits his needs. He has no regard for our guys in Iraq and the harm he has put them in. They are merely his political pawns, and this war was just for Daddy!

A few days ago I watched “Baghdad ER”. I can’t find the words to describe this documentary, other than such trite words as “disturbing” and “raw”. I cried through much of it. And afterwards, I said to myself, “Our President should watch this.” I was thoroughly pissed.

People sometimes ask me if, because of my criticism of this President, if I support our troops. My answer is, “Yes, I support our troops. And if you supported them, you’d start using the word ‘impeachment’ right about now.”
