What is the Republican response? Be afraid and launch every sleazy attack they can dream of to keep Americans from looking hard at the reality of the situation. The SS Titanic Bush is sinking and they want you and others to think otherwise.
I am often asked why I look at Washington, DC with such disdain.
“Justice is a certain rectitude of mind whereby a man does what he ought to do in circumstances confronting him.”
- St. Thomas Aquinas
Justice does not only apply to what happens in a court of law. It also involves issues like daily life, equity, fairness, compassion, honesty, integrity, character, etc. Our leadership has not represented any of those simple virtues in the past three presidential administrations and Congress has just rolled over for an endless stream of failed policies concocted by gutless leaders and greedy un-American idiots.
When you are treated like a mere piece of meat at an airport and represent no threat whatsoever to the flight or other passengers, you are denied civility, dignity and justice.
When you send an email to your Congressman and Senator and they merely delete it while you think you are having your say, you are denied justice. Most Americans do not know that their emails are tallied only for trends and deleted. The true content does not matter at all.
When you are denied the right to protest and clearly display that you think Bush and Cheney are not good leaders, you are denied justice.
When you try to vote them out and they manipulate the machines to control the outcome, you are denied justice. You are denied the right to choose who you want to lead you and speak for you.
When you lose your job due to outsourcing or corporations seeking lower wages with illegal aliens, you are denied justice by the very people who are too gutless to face the issue.
They have lined the pockets of their insider buddies while ignoring every plight of every American. Whatever your problem is they could not care less about solving it.
It amazes me that the DNC is not all over Bush on his lies. The reason is quite simple. The DNC is part of the lie machine in Washington, DC. If given the majority reins of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi cannot pursue impeachment or war crimes matters without exposing the DNC complicity in it all the way to the bottom of the barrel. Remember, CIA renditions to set up this bogus GWOT started under Clinton and Gore as did the Patriot Act and actions taken to block Bridas Corporation from denying US interests the trillions in oil and gas from the Caspian Basin.
The thought never occurred to them that they needed to change policies to get that deal done. The thought never occurred to these self-proclaimed world masters that they lack the means to control the will of 6 billion other people.
Iraq is in total disarray, civil war in progress and the death toll for Iraqis and US soldiers is climbing. The Sunni insurgents (Saddam Hussein backers) have cut and now control every road leading into Baghdad. In Afghanistan, the puppet American Karzai and that teetering faux democracy only controls the area right around Kabul and the Taliban control most of the rest of that nation. Mission Accomplished, not! In Iraq the puppet American government only controls the Green Zone in Baghdad and things are in fact getting worse. Mission Accomplished, not!
The US economy is faltering and the dollar is very weak. Mission Accomplished, not!
The theft of Iraqi oil and other natural resources under the pretense of paying for a Bush war based on lies has the Iraqis infuriated and that is not going to change until the US leaves and the Iraqis control their own natural resources and their own utilities and companies.
The pretense of attacking Afghanistan to get the ROW for an oil pipeline is not going to change. The Afghanistan people have no intentions of tolerating being abused on the basis of Bush and Clinton lies. Yes, folks, the lies go all the way back to the Carter, Reagan, GHWB, and Clinton administrations. Regarding the US desire to control the Middle East you have to look at the way back to the Johnson Administration.
This conniving, scheming and lying to take over oil goes back a long way ladies and gentlemen:

Nothing is what it seems.
VOTE THEM OUT! Break up the Republican control and in 2008 we can address both parties as being the problem and the enemy of the American people.
The new commander of the UK army, General Sir Richard Dannatt, clearly sees that the UK presence in Iraq is helping to create the problems, not solve any of them.
Tony Blair is slowly being forced into the corner where the UK will have to withdraw their troops from Iraq. In the UK there are mounting pressures for a full investigation into the willful and premeditated Bush and Blair lies regarding Iraq.
The handwriting on the wall is clear for all to see except for our president that does not bother to read.
“October U.S. Death Toll in Iraq Hits 101
Oct 31, 1:11 AM (ET)
By STEVEN R. HURST
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - The American death toll for October climbed past 100, a grim milestone as a White House envoy turned up unexpectedly in Baghdad on Monday following a rough patch in U.S.-Iraqi ties. At least 81 people were killed across Iraq, including 33 in a bombing targeting workers.
A member of the 89th Military Police Brigade was killed in east Baghdad on Monday, and a Marine died in fighting in insurgent-plagued Anbar province the day before, raising to 101 the number of U.S. service members killed in a bloody October, the fourth deadliest month of the war. At least 2,814 American forces have died since the war began in March 2003.
According to an Associated Press count, October has also recorded more Iraqi civilian deaths - 1,170 as of Monday - than any other month since the AP began keeping track in May 2005. The next-highest month was March 2006, when 1,038 Iraqi civilians were killed in the aftermath of the Feb. 22 bombing of an important Shiite shrine in Samarra.
The war and the rising American casualties have produced a huge drag on Republican candidates as the U.S. midterm election approaches. The vote is seen in many cases as a referendum on the war, which has stretched into its 44th month. The Bush administration has invested heavy attention on Iraq in recent weeks, trying to put a new face on the conflict with mixed results.”
Our desperate idiot president is going to send more US troops rather than admit that a His Big Lie is never going to win. Rumsfeld has approved more troops for Iraq. The troops are fed up and so are the American people.
Ooops!. As we approach Election Day, Bush reverses himself on November 2 and now says that troop levels in Iraq are sufficient. This type of vacillation is evidence of yet another Bush Brain Fart or maybe he lowered himself to read a poll. Maybe some brave soul in the White House spoke the truth and Bush heard it.
Kroll, a company owned by Marsh McLennan recently announced it is removing all of its security employees (i.e., mercenaries) from Afghanistan and Iraq.
This election is all about failed Bush policies, and character, and those on both sides of the aisle who aided and abetted the fiasco we find America in right now.
An excellent article has been posted about why neither the Republicans nor Democrats are the answer America and the world need.
Democrats are not Good Guys!

This latest flap by Bush demanding an apology to the US soldiers from John Kerry, and of course McCain had to chime in, is yet another desperate ploy by Bush. If anyone owes an apology to the US soldiers it is the Bush Administration from top to bottom. George Bush owes an apology to America and the world but I will not be holding my breath waiting for our arrogant president to atone for anything he has done. He has never done that in his life.
If you cannot find a reason to vote for yourself and start cleaning up the mess that the RNC and DNC have made of the United States of America, what follows is the biggest single reason you need to stop and think, and VOTE THEM ALL OUT!
