A New Direction to Disaster

by Cindy Sheehan

They continue to try to implement this course (bringing the troops home from Iraq), which would lead to chaos in the region, the creation of a possible terror state with the third largest oil reserves in the world, and a major propaganda victory for Osama bin Laden as well as for Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah.
Karl Rove, WSJ (11/09/07)


Karl Rove (disgraceful and dishonorable Brain for George Bush) writes the above quote in what was once a respected journal, but is now owned by Hillary supporter and master Reich-wing propagandist, Rupert Murdoch.

In Karl’s diatribe against the failed 110th Congress he makes all kinds of misleading and scurrilous claims about Congress. I NEVER thought I would agree with the Master of Sleaze about anything, but taking no joy in my agreement or conclusions, I do agree that the 110th is pretty pitiful, but for obvious different reasons.

In the above claim he wrongly states that Congress is working to bring the troops home. However, if Congress does actually do the morally correct thing by not giving Karl’s (well, officially, at least) former “Eliza Doolittle”, George Bush, any more money to fund the war and our troops do come home, that would not be the catalyst for chaos: sending our military to Iraq in the first place based on lies and the full-court press of the White House Iraq Group (Karl was a member) which sold their sham war to a frightened and gullible American public as if they were selling laundry detergent is what has caused the chaos.

The election of Hamas in Palestine and the hard-liner president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad can be directly linked to the situation in Iraq that rapidly became a regional nightmare and catastrophe. Yesterday, I read in USA Today that Papa George said that we should not all be so hard on his baby boy and we wouldn’t be so mean to his boy if we would all remember how “brutal” Saddam was. Saddam was brutal, but Baby George, with over a million innocent Iraqis dead, has proven that he is even a more brutal despot than Saddam and our misadventure in the Middle East has created security and power vacuums that is also a direct result of the irresponsible and bloody invasion and failed and oppressive occupation.

Viewing the charade the other day when Rep Kucinich introduced an impeachment resolution against Dick Cheney, my opinion that it is all a game with the letter behind the majority’s names just changing every so often. The entire Congress (except for a courageous and honorable handful) is playing political ping-pong with our soldiers and our future.

Congress and George dance the “Out of Step, Polka” together (with Karl calling the many of the moves) and there is very little we the people can do to join the dance, or redefine the steps into ones that make sense to an American population that truly wants a “New Direction” when Congressional leadership only pays lip service to true change and George is determined to stay a crazy course and drag us down this wrong-headed path with him.

3. I just can't let this stand.

Sheehan is wrong about both Ahmadinejad and Hamas. Hamas was largely elected as a backlash against the massive corruption of Fatah. No observer of Palestinian politics thinks otherwise. Ahmadinejad was elected for economic reasons.

Sheehan continues to be dishonest. Her attacks are far too vituperative and personal.

She's earned her irrelevance in the anti-war movement. And lord knows, she's a disasterous candidate against Pelosi.

4. And Pelosi is what?
