Listen to the fed up majority of the American public
I know that We The People don't underwrite your paychecks, but no matter what you columnists and TV talking heads say, here are the important opinions.
We The People don't like the war, don't trust Bush to manage it, and don't think Democrats have gone too far in opposing it. Is that clear?
From the latest Washington Post poll:
78% think George Bush is too unwilling to change policies in Iraq.
55% support legislation to withdraw from Iraq by next spring.
55% trust congressional Democrats on the war (only 32% trust Bush).
62% think Congress should have the final say about when to withdraw troops.
49% think Democrats have done too little to get Bush to change his Iraq policy (only 17% think they've done too much).
Wouldn't it be nice if someone competent would try to manage US foreign policy and the war for a change? How many people has Bush appointed through the years that were supposed to "manage" the war .. like, where's the LATEST War Czar guy .. and by the way, didn't Condi used to be in charge of something or other?
It's clear from the (non)results that the incompetence of the Bush administration is unparalleled in modern history.
A prime example is Osama bin Laden, the evil genius that must be destroyed at all costs. First, he was allowed to escape .. then became "unimportant" .. but now he's back at the top of the evil genius list. Talk about bloody flip-flops .. and that's real blood by the way.
The only thing this Bush administration has accomplished has been the destruction of the reputation and future and soul of America.
According to Righties like Bill Kristol the public's feelings about the war are twisted because the nasty wiberal media reports only bad news.
Last weekend on Fox News Sunday Kristol and Brit Hume said the war was turning in Bush's favor .. that there was a glimmer of some peace in Anbar Province.
What they failed to mention is Anbar Province is overwhelmingly Sunni while the rest of Iraq -- where most of the killings of US troops and all the car bombings are taking place -- is a hotbed of sectarian violence between Sunni and Shiite militants.
I've got a great idea for a new reality show:
War cheerleaders Bill Kristol and Brit Hume are dropped off at the edge of Anbar Province and have to race to the Baghdad Green Zone without any aid from the US military.
