Good deal

While George the II is busy trying to reinvent himself at FDR, that little nastiness in Iraq goes on unabated. With all the focus on Katrina, bet the W-imbecile hopes we've forgotten about that. Looks more and more like we've managed to provoke a religious civil war. Democracy? Riiiight.

To what end?

Check THIS link out. Or THIS. Or THIS.
To date, at least 1,899 Americans have died in Iraq. Americans are dying at a rate of about 17 per week. Is that acceptable? To whom? Another 15,000 to 38,000 have been wounded (Officially 14,265). And that doesn't count the 27,963 civilian deaths. These aren't numbers. They're people.
It has cost us $195.05 billion so far. Instead, we could have insured 116,791,443 children for one year. Or maybe done something to insure the Gulf Coast wouldn't be nearly destroyed by a hurricane. $195 billion could go a long way toward building an acceptable levee system in New Orleans, don't you think?
And NO weapons of mass destructions have ever been found.
And NO al Qaida connection has ever been found.
And NO terrorist camps. (Camps operating prior to the invasion).
And NO plans to spread worldwide terrorism have ever been found.
And, given the price at the pump, the oil isn't even flowing. It's good to be in the oil bidness, isn't it, W?
One accomplishment, however: while Iraq under Saddam was NOT friendly to terrorists, it's now a major terrorist staging ground. Even the W-imbecile administration admits that.
Anyone read the Downing Street memo yet? And the lies continue.
Why, again, are we there?

And so it goes
