Troops Continue to Die For Bush's Lies

As Americans, the question we need to ask ourselves, is how long are we going to force our troops to pay for Bush‘s reckless conduct that put them in these killing fields to begin with?

How long are we going force these young men and women to fight an unwinnable war that Bush should never have started?

How long should families have to go to bed at night worrying about a loved one who may never come home or watch as they come home in body bags?

Why should one more drop of American blood be shed in Iraq? For what? Victory?

Victory in Iraq has never been defined. Its to the point that Bush cannot even explain what he hopes to achieve by staying in this war for another day or for 10 years.

However, what is clear, is that Bush plans to leave our troops dying in a war without end indefinitely, and therefore, its up to American citizens to rescue these young men and women in the only way possible, by insisting that Congress cut off funding for Iraq to force Bush to get them out of that hellhole.

And this year, May 1, should be designated as a day to not only honor the fallen soldiers, but also the widows, orphans and grieving family members in America and Iraq, who are paying the consequences for the reckless conduct of the President.

Too bad the media rarely covers this

Maybe if the media was fair and balanced my neighbors would understand why many of us are outraged. What ever happened to journalism?

"whatever happened to journalism" ??? you kidding?

BushCo's little puppet: Michael Powell (Colin's son) had  his FCC Future set in 24k gold by enabling BushCo's self-described "Support Base" to monopolize all Mainstream Media. Where were you when we attempted to stop it?  Their next takeover will be the Internet. I hope you will be ready and willing to join us in stopping that!?

Today BushCo's Support Base is "reporting the news" that the 'surge' is already showing great promise!   (!)

DESPITE the fact that at least 30 American soldiers DIED in the first week in April. and God only knows how many Iraqi's.  Hundreds, since 70 died in only one incident last week.   

Seriously, it is encouraging that people are asking whatever happened to journalism... now how about demanding to know WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO OUR AMERICAN CONSTITUTION ??

IMPEACH the B------s!!

http://pledgetoimpeach.org is taking petitions right to Capitol Hill on May 1st. PLEASE add your signature! ...and if you have collected signatures on any impeachment petitions, contact admin@pledgetoimpeach.org ASAP!!
