i don't think you want to compare Abe, WW, and FDR to Bush-- not a good strategy. the civil war, ww1 and ww2 are not the Iraq War-- it's now an occupation. we won the war in a few weeks. Mission Accomplished. the war on terror is like the war on drugs. it's a package of marketing. Make it abstract and they'll buy it. these people are better at dbl speak than Orwell predicted.

Hey, I just don't trust the neo-cons judgment. If I think they're dangerous, then I would be a bad American if I were to withhold my judgment. Most people in the country don't believe these neo-cons are doing a good job, but the bushies continue to fill our ears with hopeless and pointless dribble, as though we just don't get it, that we're too stupid to understand the greatness we are about to embark on. their condesending tone is almost infantile... so much for civilian control.

we control nothing until novemeber, then their might be some changes-- but don't underestimate the neo-cons, they'll preach the "cut and run anti-flag fag lefties will bring this country down" mantra until they're red in the face.

So how much do we trust the Bushies when they come up with the wmd in Iran? Will the world go along with them? this country is becoming what it hates. all truths contain elements of their opposites.

And while those neo-cons continue to ignore their own generals, why would we not slur the dummies. it's kept pretty quiet, but some things still leak out. this group is so inept as to be a danger to us.

i fear these neo-cons much more than the terrorists right now. and that is the truth, and i'm not alone. it's always the person who's doing it for our own good that we should fear. this country has a long history of helping other people to death. the bush doctrine comes to mind.
