How Delusional. This isn%u2019t about terrorism or Democracy. It%u2019s about Big Business. Halliburton. The profiteering War Machine. Stop the madness. Start the impeachment process!

jh6379,
here is the answer. A song of the Boney M. it goes like this:

By the river of Babylon,There we sat down,
then, we weapt when we rembered Zion.
....
When the wicked
Carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land
Let the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart
be acceptable in thy sight here tonight

By the rivers of Babylon (Rough bits of Babylon)
there we sat down (You hear the people cry)
ye-eah we wept, (They need their God)
when we remember Zion. (Ooh, have the power)

Is it a revenge of any sort? who is revenging what?

In Bonus, this is a beautiful witness of a prisoner telling his story being tortured under the song of Bony M., repeated and repeated...

Wow - Bush really is crazy.

Why are we in Iraq? A question that has been asked so many times.
Iraq did not threaten the U.S., had no weapons of mass destruction, had no involvement in 9/11.
So why did we invade a country that has cost almost three thousand young Americans and thousands of Iraq lives, many of them innocent women and children. The infrastructure of Iraq has been ruined. Almost 400 billion dollars have been spent since the invasion.
This "war" will go done in history as the ill planned disaster that it has been.
Rumsfeld should not leave unscathed. Rumsfeld is as guilty as the other of Bushes cronies and should be held accountable.
Certainly, one can hope that they are, in their own minds, ashamed, but one should not expect that
from people of their ilk.
Enough. Get out now.

Please, someone, anyone, remove this man from office before he kills us all. He is suffering from delusions of grandure or the DT's or both. Has anyone checked to see if he is anywhere close to reality? Will the last person out of government please turn of the lights.

Re: "Durbin said. "The Iraq Study Group talked about the new direction in Iraq in terms of starting to bring American troops home, redeploying them to safer places, holding Iraq to new standards of responsibility and opening up a new line of diplomacy."

Sorry Durbin. We can't 'hold Iraq to new standards' until they have a legitimate government, and they will never have a legitimate government until the brutal and illegal U.S. invasion has ended, and free and fair elections take place.

Towards the end of this article I was bracing myself for Bushrocks1's daily postings and there it was (lol).

You know what, in trying to maintain a focus on the big picture I do think Bush was accurate in his judgment of terrorism being largely the product of frustration and resentment borne out of the emergence of this divide between the haves and have-nots in the world. And therefore, I have to admit that I actually think it wasn't a bad idea of his to suggest bridging that divide as a way to combat terrorism. I just don't think his my-way-or-the-highway/stay-the-course/outcast-all-critics/let-Haliburton-profit form of implementation made net and lasting gains ever possible.

So do I respect and admire Bush's resolve? While I respect and admire resolve, me thinks this is not resolve we've been seeing from Bush but rather obstinacy. And the majority of the American public expressed that sentiment with the casting of their votes in the mid-term election.

And so . . . Republicans lose control of Congress, Rummy got kicked to the curb, stay the course is no longer the course. Why? . . . I'm waiting.

(lol ;) )

I haven't and will never believe anything that George Bush says. He has proven to be a liar time and time again. He is the great decider who is a psychopath and cares not one bit for anyone but himself. He has never displayed concern for the troops in Iraq or Afganistan. There has been no soul searching over the lives lost day after day. But I do hope all you Bush lovers will join the military fight that you still believe so strongly in. Now the military is having to bribe with large sums of money, use lower and lower standards for joining, and lie to get more innocents to join the Army to go immediately to war in Iraq and the constant threat of death and maiming. So consider joining for Bush!!!!!

I just find it so queer that a Pentagon is running the State Dept.
December 9th - a good day.
I hope every one enjoys "his own little reality."

"Bush: Iraq Study Group Agrees With Me"

Agrees to "STAY THE COURSE", right? LOL

This wild creature has blinders on; he cannot voluntarily change 'course'.
He has to be made to change 'course'.
