Bush's words sadly prophetic

Saturday, August 06, 2005

Sam Fulwood III
Plain Dealer Columnist

There are some who feel like that the conditions are such that they can attack us there. My an swer is: bring them on. - President Bush, July 2, 2003 T

The chicken hawk is getting his wish.
(snip)
Is this what the president meant? Did he think about the consequences of his brash words when he leaned into the camera with that smirk and challenged the terrorists?

(snip)
At a noon vigil Friday at the foot of downtown's Peace Statue on Mall A, it was a prayer to end the war that brought Clevelanders of many faiths to their knees. Grown men wept. Grief-stricken mothers prayed. And the nation - thanks to CNN's camera eye - shared our city's pain.

(snip)
Mr. President, the consequences of your irresponsible talk and actions are returning home to roost - in body bags.

5. I'm waiting for Robertson and Falwell
to announce that Ohio is being punished for causing Bush to be elected. No, I'm not holding my breath.

6. Excellent. Thank you for the link. I will write the author.


Peace.

www.missionnotaccomplished.us - How ever long it takes, the day must come when tens of millions of caring individuals peacefully but persistently defy the dictator, deny the corporatists their cash flow, and halt the evil being done in Iraq and in all the other places the Bu$h neoconster regime is destroying civilization and the environment in the name of "America."
