Friday, July 08, 2005 Waging War Against Nations WILL NOT Stop This THE PRESIDENT: " We are fighting these terrorists with our military in Afghanistan and Iraq and beyond so we do not have to face them in the streets of our own cities." Gee George... how's that plan working for ya? How's it working for Blair & the UK? Contrast that quote w/David Sirota's awesome op/ed: "That's why today's tragic bombing frighteningly highlights just how off track our entire nat'l security strategy really is. 1st our govt lied to us about why we were going to war in the 1st place. Then, when that dishonesty was exposed, we got fed another steaming pile of crap about how the war in Iraq was protecting us from terrorists because it was diverting terrorists' attention. It is now painfully clear that those rationales were not designed to level with the American people--they were designed with one thing in mind: scaring us into supporting what should have been an unsupportable war, at the very time when we should have been focused on and scared about a far more serious challenge: securing the homeland after the worst terrorist attack in American history." I couldn't have said it better myself... perfecto. |
