I guess you haven't heard the freely elected government of Iraq has asked US/Coalition forces to STAY. - Reply to this comment
- George W Bush is a moron, a nincompoop, a cretin and several bad names not repeatable here in polite company. He reminds me of my momma answering my question as to why this donkey was sounding off so long and loud - sometimes jackasses bray just to hear themselves. Sounds right for Bushwhacker.

- Wipe America's shame by pulling this thorn from our foot. Kick those unwelcome republicans out of the civilized world of governments. Many like very much the likening of G.Walking-LiarBush to a Tyrant-Prince, done by marcelde (what difference between Him and the sons of Saddam?)
Eager to see the fallout of his theo-oligarchy governing. One day at a time GWalking-LiarBush. And your turn will come to be judged by your constituents. One feels blessed for the Democracy, freedom-seekers have voted for and fought for its preservation, not only against exterior tyrant, but also domestic ones.
God bless the freedom seekers. - Reply to this comment
- You're short; Bush said "Stay the course" about 26 times.

- BRITISH BELIEVE BUSH IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN KIM JONG-IL ==

US allies think Washington threat to world peace. CONSIDER THE RECENT SECURITY BREACH AT LOS ALAMOS! ==
Only bin Laden feared more in United Kingdom. BUT DON%u2019T WORRY AS HE PROBABLY DID NOT HAVE DIRECT ACCESS TO LOS ALAMOS.
The survey has been carried out by the Guardian in Britain and leading international polls.
It exposes high levels of distrust. In Britain, 69% of those
questioned say they believe US policy has made the world less safe
since 2001, with only 7% thinking action in Iraq and Afghanistan has
increased global security.
The finding is mirrored in America's immediate northern and southern
neighbours, Canada and Mexico, with 62% of Canadians and 57% of
Mexicans saying the world has become more dangerous because of US
policy.
Voters in three of the four countries surveyed also overwhelmingly
reject the decision to invade Iraq, with only Israeli voters in
favour, 59% to 34% against.
In Britain 71% of voters now say the invasion was unjustified, a view
shared by 89% of Mexicans and 73% of Canadians. Canada is a Nato
member whose troops are in action in Afghanistan. Neither do voters
think America has helped advance democracy in developing countries,
one of the justifications for deposing Saddam Hussein. Only 11% of
Britons and 28% of Israelis think that has happened. - Reply to this comment

- MEANWHILE, ON THIS ELECTION DAY, BUSH'S WAR ON IRAQ OPENS FURTHER THE PROVERBIAL "PANDORA'S BOX" OF CIVIL WAR WHERE THERE IS NO WINNING, BUT ONLY LOSING.
Two mortar shells slammed into a coffee shop in a Shiite neighborhood in north Baghdad late Tuesday, killing at least 14 people and wounding 16 others, police said.
The attack appeared to have been in response to mortar fire on a Sunni neighborhood across the Tigris River earlier in the day that killed seven people and wounded 25. - Reply to this comment
- The history of the present King of the United States is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refuted parts of the Constitution.
He has had his henchmen pass dangerous Laws called The Patriot Act.
He has allowed for the States to remain in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, by waging war with a sovereign land and by failing to protect our ports.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, and His.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.
For quartering large bodies of armed troops among the Green Zone:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas in foreign secret prisons.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, and destroyed the lives of our people with his obstinate refusal to sign the Kyoto Accords..
He is at this time transporting large Armies of CIA Mercenaries scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy of the Head of a civilized nation.
A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
We, therefore, for the support of this Declaration, pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, our sacred Honor, and our Democratic Vote. - Reply to this comment
- You Democrats may take the House and Senate, but we Republicans still have the White House for two more years, think about it kiddies!! Two years for Nancy Pelosi and John Kerry to oppose everything that the President puts forward and two years for them to try to ram home legislation which the President won't sign. I can hear the rhetoric for 2008 now, a do-nothing Congress led by snobby East and West coast liberals. If Kerry and crew do as much for the US as he has done for the state of Massachusetts, wow, it will make the current Congress look like a well oiled, effective, efficient machine. Ooh, and maybe you Democrats will nominate Gore or Kerry or Hillary Clinton, or better yet, Chris Dodd!!! Enjoy tonight Democrats! Relish it, believe in it because it is the best you are going to do. Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House, Ted Kennedy and Robert Byrd as committee chairs, mix in a little Dodd or Clinton or Kerry or Gore, a fine recipe for a GOP revival in 2008. You Democrats do such good work, you keep it up!!!

- It's shameful how the drive-by media has been doing the Democrats bidding this election season, especially in Virginia. They continue to replay and repeat allegations about George Allen but Jim Webb whose past seems to be very seedy gets a pass even after people corroborate what he did. Hopefully the voters of Virginia who have known Allen as Governor and Senator will see past all this and return him to office.

- Ah yes, the final polls. Remember that the closer we get to the actual finish, the less reliable any poll will be. I sure do feel sorry for anyone, Republican or Democrat who makes a decision not to vote because of polls. Get out there and vote!

- If NASCAR is representative of the American electorate, I understand why North Korea wants the bomb.

- I was watching NASCAR yesterday (Sunday)
Texas Republican Senator Kay Baily Hutchinson
was there (Ft. Worth, TX )
to tell for the drivers to Start their engines
when she was INTRODUCED to the NASCAR FANS
(a SAMPLE of the REPUBLICAN Party)
1) A MAJORITY (85 %) did NOT CHEER for her.
2) those who were vocal, BOO-ED her.
===============
IF this is a representation of the
OVER ALL SENTIMENT
then this should be a BLOWOUT (80%+)
for the DEMOCRATS and INDEPENDENTS

of coarse, come Wednesday Morning I suspect
we will hear how she just skimmed by and got elected .. - Reply to this comment
