Incompetent, crooked US contractors made the problem worse. Rumsfeld, Bush, Cheney should be over there in the work clothes repairing the damage that THEY inflicted.

Why is this the Iraqi's problem? Bush, Runsfeld and Cheney are THE ONES that bombed their civilian infrastructure to smithereens. Incompetent, crooked US contractors made the problem worse. Rumsfeld, Bush, Cheney should be over there in the work clothes repairing the damage that THEY inflicted.

True the Bush adminstration has racked us with more debt than any previous adminstration in my memory. Its getting a bit foggy from the Budalzheimer (midwest joke).The problems for the next adminstration are going to be enormous not only from a financial end but also from ending the war in Iraq continuing the fight on extremist, immigration, the continued deportation of our economy etc. I am still looking for someone that can tackle the problems this nation of ours now has. I have yet to see such a leader emerge that is truly for the people.

I have not read many of Gaye5 post and therefore do not recall where Gaye5 stands on the Iraq war.
The Road To Serfdom is a excellent book and perhaps the points being made in it are what Gaye5 is referring to.Socialism is disguised in many forms however the end result is the same. The tactics that Hitler used prior to WWII were those of socialism and look at what it brought.Again I am no supporter of Bush or the war, the point is that a individual who is not dependent upon the state (government) for his or her well being is far more creative and productive than the individual that is dependent upon the state for his well being.

The power to bankrupt (truly bankrupt) America does not lie entirely in the US hands. Looks who owns the majority of the bonds. Extremist never have to attack anything physically they can do it all by pc by selling.

donbl1 --- Gorbachev also said some years ago that, "Communism wasn't finished as some in the west would say, all we have done is just changed our tactics"...
And everywhere I see in the world that the left wing parties (which are socialist, which is an identical twin of communism) is causing world problems just as much as Bush, under the guise of helping the poor..
Socialists say that they are for the people especially the poor, and socialists tell the world that the right wing are only interested in business. It appears that every time a left winged government gets in, that within two terms business are struggling to stay alive and have to put people off or go under.
Well doesn't it stand to reason that if we have business succeeding then we have the people working and all are helped.. but if the left wing destroys business or take so much from business that they go under then more and more people cant get jobs and they starve.
