END the WAR on TERRA
This war of preference is being perpetuated for private profit and mineral property rights.

The perpetrators must be stopped.

This preemptive profiteering and its preeminent propaganda have nothing to do with liberty, democracy, peace or security.

And EVERYBODY knows it.

The Emperor Has No Clothes.

This PRIVATE profiteering is not a "War on Terror." This is a "WAR on TERRA" -- on the people, the resources and future of the entire planet.

And CONGRESS knows it.

3. The war goes on
Bush's war should and hopefully will end in the near-future but I think there needs to be a genuine war on terrorists. Of course, that would have to include international cooperation, intelligence sharing and the use of military force only as a last resort and would probably entail some reformation of the military (currently, the military is designed to fight large-scale land wars, not multiple engagement, small-scale, information-based skirmishes), all things which are anathema to the Chimp-In-Chief.

7. Democrats should make this distinction more often...
The Repub "war on terror" is a failure.

6. They can't seem to do anything about the Darfur genocide. That's terror...
But as you've pointed out, there is no oil involved whatsoever. Poor Darfurans.
