What George Lacks in Intellect He Makes Up for in Stupidity

The war in Iraq has seen the lives of 4,000 Americans destroyed for political gain. Despite mass protests and vocal opposition to the war and the underlying reasons behind it, the powers that be have elected to pursue their personal agenda by proxy, spending lives like worthless dollars in a conflict that isn’t necessary and hasn’t been shown to be worthwhile.

While the US economy nosedives into recession, the authorities are continuing to pump resources into the Iraqi war effort instead of supporting public services and improving the lives of ordinary Americans. The dollar is on its knees and the prospects of the average citizen look gloomier every day. But at least oil prices are sky high. After creatively stifling the flow from Iraq, at least the US government has managed to push oil prices to record levels and regain some degree of control over international supply.

The oil agenda underlying the war effort has cost America more than just its reputation. It’s cost 4,000 families their most precious, and left countless more Iraqis in turmoil. That’s 4,000 proud families with sons and daughters engaging in a fight for freedom against Weapons of Mass Destruction and Al Qaeda – that’s 4,000 dying for the biggest government-sponsored lie in recent history.

It has cost the US treasury billions, and dealt a crucial blow to democracy and freedom worldwide. The single-minded Bush administration war machine is nothing more than an international aggressor, circumventing international law to pursue its own illegal, immoral objectives. And the result? Death, destruction, chaos, and a global distrust and hatred of the America.

Bob Miller, one of the most outspoken opponents of the Bush regime, is a self-proclaimed ‘Eisenhower Republican’ and a Vietnam War veteran. Despite his political affiliations, Miller has rejected the reasoning behind the war in Iraq, and has been harshly critical of the foreign policy decisions of the Bush administration, which he says in no way incorporates the Republican ideal.

“I do not understand Americans who put their political party before their country, but even more puzzling are parents who put jobs before their child's life. Some people are calling this an anti-war movement. I call it Don't Die For a Lie. The Department of Defence is not about defence; it's the military-industrial complex, or more appropriately, Weapons of Mass Destruction Sales & Service”.

“It is a fact that George W. Bush and Dick Cheney are the purest examples of the ideologies and trustworthiness of this ungodly and un-American group of empire builders calling themselves Republicans.”

    Don't know whether or not any of you saw the news report of US soldiers trying to get some Iraqi soldiers to move in on some guys who were firing at them from rooftops, but it sure brought back a Vietnam event for me.

    Al Gore or John Kerry could have gone down several different roads to achieve the US objectives of controlling the oil reserves in Iraq. But without any leadership abilities, poor breeding, and being surrounded his entire life by some of the most sinister men on the planet, George W. Bush took the only road available to him.

    Since I've worked in the back alleys and sewers of the US federal government for years, I'm often asked about the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). I can sum up the people who make up this organization in one word--putrid.

    The financial impact of Health Reform on medical professionals across the country is difficult to predict. Physicians derive their income in different ways with many being independent practitioners and others working as employees of large physician groups and hospital systems. Since current Health Reform legislation is aimed primarily at covering more people, physicians, hospitals, and outpatient centers will likely have more business following the passage of this reform.
