Has he no sense of decency. It's to the point that he can only appear to audiences that have to applaud him, the military services. The troops can be ordered to applaud and adore Bush, to do otherwise is failure to obey an order. This is a pathetic photo op by Bush. Has he no sense of decency.

I found many expressing the disbelief, hurt and rage that I am feeling everyday as I go about trying to live a life that will make a difference. I can't imagine how I would react if I were still in uniform, knowing what I now know. Thank goodness my time of unquestioning loyalty was short lived, and long before this ill-conceived "war against terrorists". I was against the war BEFORE the invasion and was shocked that so many sat silently and watched it happen, including, and most importantly, our media. With its help, Bush and the boys were able to use fear to further their agenda and invade a country without just cause. I have watched in horror as 1,000's of innocent people have been killed in the name of "our war for our freedoms". I have watched in horror as Americans by the thousands have bought this crap and not questioned its validity. I have to wonder if they want to remain ignorant to remain ignorant, or if they really do believe the lies that drip from the lips of Bush and the boys on a regular basis. How can the truth not be seen, and how many innocent lives must be lost before the threshold of wrong is reached? I hope that we, as a country, can overcome this massive wrong we are engaged in, and somehow put ourselves back together again. I fear that it will take a long time to heal the wounds of this illegal war, but can only hope that its lessons of fear overruling thought will have been learned and never forgotten. I cannot support lies. I cannot stand by while billions of dollars are being stolen by corporations in the name of homeland security, and remain silent. I cannot watch as wrong is being done and not say anything. Whatever that makes me in the eyes of these so-called "patriots", so be it.

IN addition they even sent civilians with weapons as a last ditch attempt to stave off the allied forces invading Berlin. Delusional propaganda was dispersed to drive theese last fighters to their impending deaths. Bush has played right into AlQaeda's playbook (Read "Management of Savagry") and sent the American army and financial resources into Iraq and drained this nation of those vital things.
