Bush makes surprise visit to Iraq.
Bush makes surprise visit to Iraq.
“President Bush made a surprise visit to Iraq on Monday, using the war zone as a backdrop to argue his case that the buildup of U.S. troops is helping stabilizing the nation.” On his way to the APEC summit in Australia, Bush made a detour to Iraq, landing at an air base in a remote part of Anbar province. Accompanied by security aides Condoleezza Rice, Robert Gates, and Stephen Hadley, Bush’s visit came just hours after British forces completed their pullout from Basra. “Residents of Basra cheered the withdrawal.”
UPDATE: “The president stopped at a small building where a Marine Cobra pilot briefed him about the positives and negatives of current troop rotations. He told the president that troops were not getting enough time at home and did not have enough time for training. ‘Morale?’ asked Bush. ‘How’s morale?’ ‘Very high sir,’ the pilot, Capt. Lee Hemming, said.” ”There are some people who might try to deride this trip as a photo opportunity,” White House deputy press secretary Dana Perino said. ”We wholeheartedly disagree.”

Clearly, this is a last resort tactic on Bush’s part. He’s hoping that his visit will spin more positive propaganda regarding the “progress”(hah!) in Iraq. Nothing he does these days matters one iota to the american people. He’s become a cipher.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:02 amThe White House also showed how much they cared about our city when he this press release was issued
Thank you. Good afternoon. On Monday, President Bush will leave Washington and travel to Sidney, Australia, to attend the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders meeting
…
But it will be the first time that he will have the opportunity to enjoy the hospitality of Sidney-siders
The embarrassing misspelling of Sydney was quickly corrected when Australian Reporters pointed it out, but Not everywhere got the memo.
Good Grief!
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:02 amHi Badger!
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:04 amDid you see the huge “wall” they have to built because of the level of hatred for Bush in Sydney?
As an american I find that utterly embarrassing that there is so much hatred for the leader of our country; of course, he’s earned it quite handily both internationally and nationally.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:04 amWhat moron is writing Bush’s press releases these days? Obviously, it’s one of his teenage proteges who have less sense than brains.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:05 amhttp://www.villagevoice.com/news/0735,hentoff,77643,6.html
Off topic but news that Bush’s ‘war crimes’ will not go unnoticed. Evidently, the international war crimes tribunal is setting the stage for a Nuremberg-esque trial of Bush & Co.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:09 amGood morning veritas..yeah I saw pictures of the Wall. It will probably cost John Howard his reelection…..that and the Iraq war.

September 3rd, 2007 at 9:10 amBut will Maliki visit him ????????? in the remote airbase
Sawt al-Iraq reports in Arabic that Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki has pledged not to allow Iraq to become a base for regional or international powers to settle scores. (This announcement seems to me to be an attempt to forewarn the Bush administration that it may not use Iraq as a base for an attack on Iran).
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:11 amOK him and what army? Which army gonna fight this fight that noone gives a crap about?
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:11 amI believe that after her recent performance at a pageant, Miss Teen South Carolina has all the qualities George W. Bush needs in a new spokesperson. Such as her compassion for The Iraq.

A British professor stressed that Iran’s nuclear program is perfectly lawful and in accordance with international rules and measures.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:14 amThe president’s brief visit to Iraq suggests just how large the White House’s latest marketing campaign will be. He will now be able to offer his own personal “eye witness†accounts of progress there. But from a psychological perspective, the warmongering ahead will likely continue to focus on the American public’s core concerns about issues of vulnerability, injustice, distrust, superiority, and helplessness. I examine how the Bush administration has employed this strategy in brief online video entitled “Resisting the Drums of War.†It’s available for viewing HERE.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:14 amBritish forces have completed their withdrawal from the southern city of Basra and handed over their city center base to the Iraqi army.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:14 amSilence, over time, becomes “complicity”. Most of Congress now is also complicit in the allowance of war crimes by this administration. Certainly the Republican Congress which preceeded this one is! As for the people whose voices have been effectively squelched by the Patriot Act, only time will reflect how much “culpability” the rest of the world will hold american citizens to in all of this. Certainly, we’ve all been outraged by the people who sat back while Hitler committed his crimes….not that much different from that which we are permitted by our silence right now….and have been for 6 long years.
History will certainly judge the Republican party harshly for “enabling” this behavior and may also judge this generation of americans in the same vein – lest we wake up and begin to do something about it.
Certainly our Congressmen need a huge boot in the arss right now to awaken them and/or removal from office for their continued complicity in the destruction of not only our constitution but international law regarding war crimes. This will come back to haunt the members of Congress over the past 6 years as they each will be held accountable for their vote to enable the torture and violation of international law as well. I believe we will also see the day when this entire administration will be placed on trial, ala Nuremberg style, and convicted. This will be a sad day in american history – a travesty actually – but the larger travesty is that we’ve all sat lazily back and knowingly permitted it.

Look at this map where Bush landed

the media are trying to mislead you into thinking he went to baghdad
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:18 am#19 Bush going to Iraq is definitely pulling out all stops since this is the last place on earth he’d desire to be. You KNOW they’re desperate with this transparent tactic.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:18 amLede story from CNN.com:
“The White House said the base was chosen because of the “remarkable turnaround” in the province. Bush has hailed Anbar — a Sunni province west of Baghdad — as a success, citing the U.S. military’s alliance with tribal leaders in fighting al Qaeda in Iraq . . . In 2003, Bush made a surprise visit to U.S. forces in Iraq on Thanksgiving.”
GO BUSH!!!
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:19 amTobey: Thanks for the link. Of course, this whuss wouldn’t go into Baghdad. What a joke if they think they will really pull this charade off. Why didn’t he just “stage it” in some studio in LA, for cripes sake?
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:19 amHe’ll send our children there to their doom and destruction – yet he doesn’t have the balls to land there himself. What a whimp.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:20 amWhat if a coup attempts to remove Malaki, the ELECTED head of the Govt., and he appeals to neighboring Iran for help.??
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:20 amWe might see a preview of things to come in Basra soon, as rival Shiite militias fight it out for control of Iraq’s second largest city.
It is also interesting that when it comes to LABOR issues, and in this case Labor Day, the President runs for cover in Iraq. To be propped up by the pawns he has created through the Pentagon.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:20 amBEST PRESIDENT EVER!!!
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:21 amSELECTIVE STAGING is precisely what Bush’s trip is. Sorry Dumbo – the people are onto you – big time. The people are buying none of this hard sell campaign so his trip is totally in vain.
Bush’s Iraq Visit = HUGE PIMP JOB ON THE AMERICAN PUBLIC.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:21 amI see that our little worm-troll has added a very appropriate “D” to his moniker – “D” for ddddddddddddouchebag perhaps?
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:22 amBehind the scenes, says Gulf News, the Bush administration is putting pressure on PM Nuri al-Maliki to cancel the proposed visit of Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad to Baghdad. The Bahraini newspaper’s Iraq sources told it that the Iraqi government is split on the visit. If you attend closely to the subsequent comments, you can clearly see that the Supreme Islamic Iraqi Council of Abdul Aziz al-Hakim favors the visit (SIIC is also Bush’s best friend in Iraq), and the Sunni Arab bloc, the Iraqi Accord Front, has the most severe reservations.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:22 am“Bush made a detour to Iraq, landing at an air base in a remote part of Anbar province.”
So presumably he’s going to point to the progress in the unhabited regions of Iraq. Genius.

September 3rd, 2007 at 9:23 amYou know it’s “troll detritus” when there’s nothing more than cheerleading – nothing of substance CAN be added to the post since there’s nothing of substance which any Repuke can speak about these days.
Wonder which Repuke will be this weeks’ news? I think it’s the one who left threatening messages to residents who wrote something unflattering about him taking money from the gaming industry….he left two threatening messages and will probably be the next “Repulsive Repuke” scandal.

Comment by Jake D. — September 3, 2007 @ 9:28 am
Only in his ability to destrpy the Republican party will he be above any Dem president. he will be thanked by generations of Americans for finally, in his greed and incompetence, exposing the GOP as the antiAmericam, closet-dwelling, traitor-ridden crime cabal we on the Left always knew it was. that will be his greatest, nay, his only, accomplishment of a positive nature for the history books. this country will be returned to its liberal ways if it is to survive, if Bush hasn’t already raped and pillaged beyong repair. Bush has failed at everything a president should be and do, and will be remembered as a stain on the Constitution; Bill Clinton, even now, has the respect of the historians for doing the job right. Bush will never have that, never.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:40 amPoof! Like magic – the Reputards in Congress, one by one, will be brought down by their own criminal behavior. Any individual left still supporting the Party of Criminals will find that they’ve become totally irrelevant to the new policical landscape of this country. This is why the trolls here are beginning to look so disassociated from reality with nothing credible to spin any longer. Their “heroes” like Rove, Rummy, and Gonzo have screwed them by leaving the sinking ship. It can’t feel too warm and fuzzy to realize that anyone with a brain left in their head is jumping ship and leaving Dodge. The trolls, however, are pretty far down the food chain as well as the brainchain so it will take them some time to realize that they’ve become totally eclipsed.

Big IF their Jason. If there is ever democracy in Iraq. Bush plans on dumping his 6 month war, turned into a 5 year quagmire in the next Presidents lap. Ergo he couldn’t possibly be credited with Democracy in Iraq.
Nominating a couple of federalists to the supreme court isn’t worthy of a mention.

September 3rd, 2007 at 9:49 amWith the international war crimes tribunal becoming activated, thanks to the Red Cross findings today, I think the wheels of impeachment are moving. In fact, this scathing report deals with the “complicity factor” which congress will face if they fail to bring these criminals to justice. They, too, may be held accountable by this tribunal.

>were fighting US last year. Just sayin…
right.. I truly have no doubt we are bribing these chieftans with multimillion dollar payoffs and massive weapon shipments. I wonder how long the goodwill will last. It still doesnt make the Sunnis any more friendly to the central government.
This all is sure a spectacle, i must say…its morbidly fascinating to watch such a massive, desparate attempt to market a world altering strategic fiasco.
I bet you anything this trip wasnt planned until Warner dropped his bombshell a week or so ago. I’m sure what he said sent shockwaves through the republican establishment and make them desparate for some sort of distraction.
I am so glad the Government Accountability Office, one of the last bastions of ACCOUNTABILITY in this government, leaked the miserable benchmark report card before the “we know where the weapons are” crew had a chance to doctor it..
These idiots are just desparately trying to buy time (with our tax dollars) until they can hand this off to a democratic president. Iraq is going to choose to ally itself with Iran and theres going to be nothing we can do about it, because it will be their democratic choice.
September 3rd, 2007 at 9:53 amThese trials will make Nuremberg look like a dress rehearsal!

The Red Cross is aware of them and the methods used there, but if they tell the world what they know, they will not be allowed to minister in those countries again.

September 3rd, 2007 at 9:59 amas a success, citing the U.S. military’s alliance with tribal leaders in fighting al Qaeda in Iraq . . . GO BUSH!!! Comment by Jake D.
Jake, this ‘war’ as you wackos call this regime change operation, was about removing the oppressive Sunni [Saddam] regime from power.
Now 4 years later Bush is now supporting….cmon I know you know the answer. Sunnis!
This ‘war’, this freedom operation for peopleoppressed under Sunni Saddam, is a circle Jerk, an excercise in futility. Remove the Sunnis and then replace them with Sunnis. The Sunnis aren’t interested in Democracy btw.
http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070825/NEWS06/708250330/-1/RSS07
President George W. Bush should forget about forging a democracy in Iraq and focus on stabilizing the country and combating Islamic extremists, Michigan’s top congressional Republican on foreign intelligence said Friday.
“The U.S. effort to install a democracy in Iraq within three to five years was a flawed strategy with little chance of succeeding, U.S. Rep. Peter Hoekstra said Friday.â€
After meeting recently with Iraq’s Sunni Arab tribal leaders, Hoekstra said, he’s reversed his initial support for Bush’s stated goal of establishing a democracy in Iraq as justification for invading in 2003. “They’re not looking for a county commission to tell them what to do. They have a thousand years of experience of tribal culture that says, ‘This is how we deliver services, keep security and stability.’ “
Seems to me \/\/ is doing a pump n dump Jake. Notice the links I gave are freeper links and a Republican representative.

September 3rd, 2007 at 10:04 amWhoa, now a republican is the voice of wisdom to the left, go figure.
Four seven years now repubs have been vilified as Bible-thumping hicks, but when one speaks out against the war, why he is a paragon of cogent appraisal about the war.
Dont bother mentioning guys like Baird or Lieberman, they have been co-opted by Cheney’s mind control device and are now traitorous scum. But Hoekstra…now THERE is a man of insight and obvious intelligence and all because he opposes the war.

AH ha ha ha ha ha ha!
You may be right. Bush could be credited with democracy in the Middle East, in much the same way that the 1906 San Francisco earthquake can be credited with bringing stronger building codes to California.

Yeah, Bush made a surprise visit with a rubber Turkey. Way to go Bush! And the reason for the turn-around in Anbar province is that everyone has fled the city. It is virtually a ghost town at this point. Pretty easy to lower violence in a city with no people.

Another day of Jake’s intellectual fraud, otherwise known as “the list.”
What Jake doesn’t tell you is he answers those he has put on the list all the time, directly. It’s all a scam. He’s answered me many times, and I’m a charter member of the list. When you post something he disagrees with, and you’re on his list, he’ll answer you, and then claim he didn’t, to maintain the farce.
September 3rd, 2007 at 10:36 amBush lands in the middle of thousands of square miles of desert to show how the surge is working and to promote turning the habitual regions of the country into peaceful democratic deserts to.
September 3rd, 2007 at 10:37 amGood enough for me, Margaret (I also address other matters “for the record” just in case someone NOT on the “Ignore List” is intrested — I certainly would want to bother someone already on the “Ignore List”). I graduated, took, and passed the California bar exam in 1961. I don’t recall my exact score (I don’t think they even gave an exact score back then, just a congratulatory letter saying you passed, which was all I needed). There were five digits in my bar number (I’m retired, as you may recall). As for professor names, I do recall Herbert Packer and someone named Smith, but I don’t remember the first name. That was a long time ago. Are you a lawyer? If so, are you still practicing? Do you recall all of these details?

If it’s not then you are a big part of this administration’s problems, it doesn’t listen, it’s secretive, it disrespects congress and thus the people, and it makes war not diplomacy. Not to mention that YOUR government spies on us with complete disregard for the fourth amendment, has found a “Christian” tolerance for torture, and has essentially replaced the rule of law with the rule of might. That’s what your part of and that’s what your grandchildren will know Ms. Perino. Worse yet you think everything is ok.

I’m glad you brought that up, Jake. I’ve been waiting for the right time to advocate the re-introduction of slavery based on Bibliical verse. Do you think now would be good time?
“When you buy a Hebrew slave, six years shall he serve; and in the seventh shall he go out free, for nothing. If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him. If his master has given him a wife, and she has borne him sons or daughters, the wife and the children shall be her master’s, and he shall go out by himself. And if the slave shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: then his master shall bring him unto God, and he shall bring him to the door or unto the door-post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall be his slave forever.â€
—Exodus 21:2-6.

Yes, Jake! It even says so in the Bible:

I say let’s take as much of the Bible literally as possible, eh, Jake?
And no, perhaps the Bible never mandated slavery, but it certainly provided justification for it.

Margaret, it takes time to Google when is trying to create a convincing online persona.
For example, you type “professional responsibility exam” as was referenced by you into Google, and it throws out” MPRE” and lo and behold the persona has a convincing acronym to throw out there.
Even better, click on the MPRE wiki, and there’s the reference to Watergate, lending even more seeming credence to the persona’s familiarity with the term.
Now who would really know, right off the top of their head, that the MPRE wasn’t around until after Watergate unless that person looked it up. Wouldn’t it make more sense to say, “It wasn’t required when I took the bar.” No, in order to bolster the fabrication, you add some random detail.
Kinda like criminals do when relating their alibis. They think the more detail they can offer makes them more convincing. Quite the opposite.

Right…. I repeatedly asked about “other exams” and “other tests” and he seemed to not have a clue what I was talking about, then all of a sudden he knows what im talking about in vivid detail.. seemed fishy to me also…
September 3rd, 2007 at 12:12 pmI will never be convinced that Capt Hemming wasn’t ordered by his superiors to tell the president that morale is “very high, sir”. And I think that Capt Henning should have seriously weighed the ethics of telling his commander-in-chief a flat out lie like that, even if he was ordered to do so.
September 3rd, 2007 at 12:14 pmHas Bush been able to convince anyone besides his “28%ers” to give a rip about Iraq? What a failure for a leader–send Americans overseas to die for his lies and can’t even rally half the nation to give a damn about his “war.”

At every stroke of the bell in the tower there goes
Another boy from another side
The bulletins that steady come in say those
Familiar words at the top of the hour
The jamming city increases its hum
And those terrible words continue to come
Through brass music of government hear those
Guns tattoo a roll on the drums
No-one mentions the neighboring war
No one knows what they’re fighting for
We are tired of the tune
You must not relent
As you now know, GDumbya has flown to Iraq; however, this isn’t the big secret.
His trip is the first step in launching the Pentagon’s three-day airstrike on Iran. Later today, GDumbya will don his flight-suit and cod-piece. Then he will climb into his fighter plane and lead the first bombing run on nu-ku-lar facilities in Iran.
Remember, you heard it hear first! You see, he has found a way to secure his legacy.

September 3rd, 2007 at 1:02 pmi agree bartlebee…
and badger adds a logical point also…
…
btw – badger – you are in australia?
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:05 pmwhy was i thinking wisconsin? other than the obvious…

katy… your second guess is correct. If I were in Australia, I’d be a marsupial ;)
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:09 pmSpain, Italy left Iraq,and now England; they all see nothing left for them to stay.
Bush toppled Saddam, but who is taking his place in the south after England pulled their troops? they are the Shiite militias of all kind and specially Al Sader groups.
We went there to Iraq and Iraq was secular country…we will leave Iraq and Iraq will be run by religious militias Shiite and Sunni…
That’s Bush legacy.
Women lost their rights as a result,so are Christians..
the media don’t bring this up?
Iran as a result of this war is much stronger…we toppled their biggest enemy Saddam..they lost no soldier fighting and spent no dime to fight Saddam.. we did, but they will be there ’till the end of time…sooner or later we will be leaving.
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:09 pmIran is getting stronger with Saddam is gone..
With Surge or no surge..the legacy of Bush will remain that he changed the strategic map of the area and the Persian Gulf for years to come, in favor of Iran.
In his last speech, president of Iran said:’When America leaves we will be able to fill the vacuum they leave in Iraq with other neigboring countries’… That’s why we cannot leave…we will continue spending billions of dollars for years to come…as a result of toppling Saddam.
That’s why all neighboring countries -except of Iran and Israel- did not want us to go to Iraq…and for Iran and Israel..Saddam was a big enemy. Now Israel wants us to go after Iran..so Israel will have the complete dominance in the area…
But a war with Iran will be costly and will bleed us financially,unless Bush decides to increase taxes..something he is not going to do..so printing Securities papers and present them to foreign countries’ buyers will be his option, meaning we will be more and more in financial debt…and that will sink us more in financial troubles.
Bush should have a political plan by now to solve this Iraqi problem other than military…there should be a parallel political solution on hand…but unless all neighboring coutries of Iraq got involved,the Arab and Islamic Organization and the United Nations also participated…there will be no solution,
and we cannot be there forever…
The irony here is that Bush Sr. , Cheney and James Baker cautioned about our involvement in toppling Saddam after the 1991 Kuwaiti/Iraqi war, so we will not live this day we are living now in Iraq.
I think Laura stayed home, cause she told her husband she was done selling his war.

September 3rd, 2007 at 1:11 pmHow will this affect the debate on Iraq here in the US? It will show that more of Iraq has been secured in a rather dramatic fashion. A year ago, a presidential visit to Anbar would have been a ludicrous suggestion. His meetings with tribal leaders may have been even more ludicrous regardless of whether they occurred in Anbar or Baghdad. It cuts through the filters of conventional wisdom and media narratives to make a rather bold point about the progress since the start of the surge.
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:18 pmBEST PRESIDENT EVER!!!

You and all the home schooled toothless hillbillies believe that while the other 72% say impeach this worthless thug and the rest of the crime family while you are at it.
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:23 pmI love this President Bush. He truly supports our troops. This is why he’s our Commander in Chief.
Thanks President Bush.

Bob, for your information I am a veteran of the war that Dubya and
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:29 pmShooter and most of the GOP avoided when it was their turn. Are all your heroes wothless cowards, thugs, liars, and members of a crime family? Get a life, moron.
Bush is a WAR CRIMINAL and TRAITOR to the USA who sux the dixx of Saudi OIL TERRORIST FINANCIERS.
He needs to be in jail until he drops dead and goes to hell.
Where he belongs…
And he blows dead Iraqi dogs, too…
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:30 pmOh Jake, now your a Vietnam era vet. When you first started posting here, you were a Korean War vet. So which is it liar?
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:30 pmAre you guys watching Peter Pace answer the troops questions?
First question: What percentage of injuries are traumatic brain injuries?
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:30 pmAnswer: I don’t know…post traumatic stress disorder is real so watch your buddies.
It should not be lost on ANYONE that he chose the place MOST identified with the reason the war was lost and that we should tuck tail and run…to bring his ENTIRE war brain-trust for a sit down with the men and women fighting this war.
While some of our media friends will surmise it as nothing more than a pre-Petraeus testimony PR stunt, it’s worth noting that we ARE in fact still fighting the enemy there AND trying to get their Government to stand up on its own “two feet.” AND, as President, for him to place himself ON THE GROUND amongst the Soldiers fighting it in our stead, a little more appreciation is due here than the continued anti-war media cynicism.
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:34 pmInteresting picture. Why are none of the soldiers carrying a gun?

September 3rd, 2007 at 1:40 pmJoe had nothing to do with that
Sorry Katy I read my comment again..and see what you’re saying. It’s just a case of a poorly proof read paste job.
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:49 pmNo… I think I’m just a couple hundred miles north of you,
Not enough time to read through all the posts, to see if it’s already been covered, but the striking thing is Bush’s lack of personal armor. It’s his last, desperate act to convince the public by using the same fake visuals he always uses. Warhawks will point to this perverse parody of progress, arguing for more time/lives, but the surge can’t/won’t produce anything politically positive for the regime, in fact, just the opposite. It will further split the disparate groups, and further spread the violence.
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:52 pmYou can count on Dip$hit Dana to “out” the true purpose of the trip. She’s so idiotic that it’s pretty comical – …”some may think this trip is strictly a photo op”…..well, hey DanaDip$hit: For the record we don’t “think” that it is; we KNOW THAT IT IS! AHAHAHA!
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:56 pmAirhead Perino should have told what we already know: BUSH IS A VERY DESPERATE INDIVIDUAL.
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:57 pmLil’Laura’s keeping a low profile because too many jaws are flapping about her own skeletons in the closet – vehicular homicide of a boyfriend, for openers. Lil’Laura also knows all about JeffyLube’s nocturnal visits to her home. Oh dear me! Lil’Laura’s all a fluster……

Comment by OCTAVIANVS
For what?
September 3rd, 2007 at 2:09 pmThe much touted success in Al Anbar province is not the result of a surge in troop numbers, but a change in tactics. Credit Gen. Petraeus with that…. Instead of lumping all insurgents together and calling them “terrorists”….he realized that the Al Anbar Sunni Shieks wanted Al Qaeda out of Iraq, and began an alliance with them to accomplish just that. This is spite of the fact that these recent Sunni allies were attacking Americans just a year ago.
September 3rd, 2007 at 2:10 pmThe risks of blowback are clear, but reality trumped ideology in this case. In my opinion, If Gen. Petraeus had been running things in Iraq from the beginning….many tragic and disasterous mistakes would have been avoided.
But Al Anbar is just one part of Iraq. In the south, the Brits are leaving, and the Shiites are fighting each other for power. The same is likely to occur in the north, where the Kurds and the Sunnis both lay claim to oil rich Tikrit.
And if things run true to form, his appoval ratings will drop even further.
September 3rd, 2007 at 2:12 pmooops make that “oil rich kirkuk”

It is comforting to note that the change over in press secretaries from Tony Snow to Dana Perino has not affected the consistency. If the Bush press secretary says it is so then you can be 100% certain that it isn’t.
The Bush Presidential Seal should have his administration’s motto added. “Recubo Supra Veritas.”

September 3rd, 2007 at 3:10 pmGod has been so weak and powerless against Satan and Bush! The last 6 or 7 years it has been all about Bush lying deceiving and abusing the will of the American people. God has given Bush all the leg room he needs to do whatever he wants. The USA is no longer blessed by God! What kind of an example is Bush setting for the new generations? Lie, steal, kill innocent people, and stage a terrorist attack on 9/11 : God let’s you get away with it! Having young men killed in a criminal war in which idiot Bush and his cronies are making a profit! Who is God? Or what is God? : is He a group of wealthy people (the global elite)? Lately God does not bless the world nor the truth. In these last 6 or 7 years God has become a greedy politician and an oil merchant. He’s bound by a contract with Satan. They’re like a team these days! When will this nightmare end? I regret trusting and believing in God all these years. Satan rules this world and is here to stay. Obviously God is the back seat watching Satan drive him and this country straight to hell.
September 3rd, 2007 at 3:46 pmNow you know what the GOP thought about Bill Clinton.

At one point, I MIGHT have turned Rapeublican. But I have seen the Bush CRIMINAL FAMILY since the days of TRAITOR Reagan.
70 YEARS of Bush TREASON in this country.
Starting with Granddaddy Prescott’s aiding an attempt to overthrow FDR and go FASCIST.
And also, he got property SEIZED for TRADING WITH THE ENEMY;
i.e. laundering Nazi money…
Daddy Bush pardoned the Iran/Contra TRAITORS and INTERNATIONAL TERRORIST Orlando Bosch.
And the Bin Ladens FINANCED Jr.’s failed oil businesses, which HE profited from by ILLEGAL INSIDER TRADING.
