"For the first time in half a century now, we can put our children to bed at night knowing that the nuclear weapons of the former Soviet Union are no longer pointed at (our) children."
Americans knew and felt the difference. The attacks on 9-11 scared some Americans into going along with chasing 'terrorists' to Afghanistan, knocking a dictator out of power while we were at it . . . and there's where they were left hanging. Bush has done nothing to bring our nation back to the security of the Clinton era which preceded his ascendance to office. He's hell-bent on muscling around, itching for a fight while most Americans who backed him up are waiting for the payoff.
No bin-Laden. The Iran thing is completely removed from that.
No 'democracy' in Iraq. How the hell are we going to rustle the Iranians into seeing things our way?
A billion dollars a week spent for the occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bombings all over Iraq, soldiers still dying almost daily, and they say that all of this war-making hasn't intimidated anyone who would do our nation and our citizens harm. We've inflamed violence with our military meddling and muckraking. This can only get worse.
I'll bet there are more than a few bushites who wish their glorious leader would just shut up and stand down from all of the world-crusading he's doing with our soldiers and our money. I'm hoping that, at long last, this sneering frat-boy is wearing thin on folks who didn't think Bush could do any wrong, and cheered him on as innocents overseas found themselves at the destructive point of his politics.
I'm hoping they've finished playing cowboy. I hope they realize they've paid everything they have for their war games with their hard-earned contributions to the government going right into the oligarchy's pockets, and because they've come to realize that Bush sucks at every single thing he does.
