All the King's Men Sign a Death Warrant on American GIs

A BUZZFLASH EDITORIAL

There is no "new plan" for Bush to announce.

We have been seeing the same plan endlessly fail – and then endlessly repackaged over and over and over again.

There is, however, a new PR word – "surge" – that came out of the infamous Frank Luntz focus groups to try to make the stench of American men and women dying in Baghdad in greater numbers more palatable.

That is all that is new to Bush’s defiant legacy of failed leadership.

The Washington Post reported on Wednesday that the escalation of troops was chosen, in large part, to defy the "Iraq Study Group": "As described by participants in the administration review, some staff members on the National Security Council became enamored of the idea of sending more troops to Iraq in part because it was not a key feature of Baker-Hamilton."

In short, more Americans will die because the psychiatrically impaired Bush needs to give the finger to his father.

When will we rid ourselves of this treasonous, rat bastard? OMG.

:grr:

1. Bush has a problem and I do think it will end in impeachment.
I was on the impeach fence because I saw the need to keep cheney out of the presidency. but, I think bush will be facing impeachment along with darth vp.

2. So the speech was all for naught, just to see what kind of a jump in the
polls he might get, from the flaming idiots who don't know what's going on and don't give a shit. Sigh and potential major headache brought on by disgust.

3. This is all so wrong on many different levels.
Little Lord Pissypants is beginning to scare the hell out of me. Seriously. :scared:
