War Bonds

The USA financed WW2 by selling war bonds. Why aren’t we financing the “war” in Iraq by selling war bonds? Because W and his cronies do not want to spend their money supporting the “war.” They want the middle class, not the upper class, to pay for W’s “war” with their taxes.

Why the quotes around the word war? When a country is at war the whole country and everyone in it are at war not just the military. In W’s war, the country is not on war footing. Where is the draft to support the military. Where is the rationing? Just where is the all out effort to win? All this means that W is not serious about the military action in Iraq.

There is NO war in Iraq.

The USA’s Iraq policy is a failure

Why? Because W and his cohorts do not understand the realities of the Mideast. W and his crowd only see/believe the facts, half-facts and falsehoods that support their preconceived (although erroneous) beliefs and desires. To continue down this path is just stupid. Its like the joke about a guy betting on the losing sport’s team while watching a video rerun expecting a different outcome. It is not going to change! W’s asking for more time for his policy to work is like asking for an additional video rerun hoping for a different result this time. Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
