Ol’ “Bring ‘Em On” Bush really doesn’t want the to really bring anything. Yesterdays report from the Commission of the National Guard and Reserves found “an appalling gap that places the nation and its citizens at greater risk”to chemical, biological and nuclear attack.
I guess George Bush really doesn’t mean the shit he spews. NYT
This after reports that more soldiers are committing suicide than ever before. Maybe thats because they are stuck occupying Iraq and can’t be here where they can defend their own country. Drinking Liberally
Tonight, President Bush will issue what will thankfully be his final State of the Union address; but, little of what he says can be trusted.
For the past seven years, we have watched as America has moved steadily backwards. We have become a nation that is less free and less fair. We have become a nation that no longer values the right to privacy and has tragically retreated from our cherished foundations.
Nothing George W. Bush says tonight will change the sad reality of the America he has given us:
- Our economy teeters on the edge of recession while property taxes spike and homeowners are losing their homes at record levels;
- Our educational system is broken and our teachers are abandoned;
- Our roads and bridges languish in disrepair, while our borders and ports remain under-inspected and insecure;
- Our most basic ideals about law and justice have been tossed out, as our President uses fear to pursue his reckless agenda; and
- We remain mired in Iraq – a war built on lies and manipulated intelligence.
Nowhere in American history - not even Watergate - have we been confronted with an Administration so ambivalent about the truth and established law. A recent nonpartisan study found that the Bush Administration lied over 900 times in the prelude to the Iraq war, misleading us on nearly every critical issue.
It is time that we reclaim this country and undue the damage wrought by George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.
Democrats in Congress must stand up and lead – no matter the cost.
Dennis Kucinich is revoicing the call for impeachment today in the house. Maybe this time impeachment will be “Back On The Table”. Mike Gravel praised Kucinich in this report from Huffington Post.
