According to bush we are supposed to be ridding the whole Middle East

of terrorists - the latest reason for being in Iraq. Then we had better add on a few GI's. It's is a big and hostile place, I've heard.

2. Tune in tomorrow - if you can stand it

Bush to give greater detail
White House press secretary Scott McClellan characterized Bush's planned remarks Thursday morning as a "major speech" that will address the connection between Iraq and the broader war against the al Qaeda terrorist network "in greater detail than he has before."

"He will talk about how is a group of people that have a very clear strategy for driving us out of the Middle East, for creating a safe haven in the Middle East -- a safe haven from which they can plan and plot attacks on the rest of the civilized world and a safe haven from which they can seek to overthrow moderate governments in the Middle East," McClellan said.

4. Never mind what happened with the Hurricane or Iraq so far

They have a REAL plan this time, it's going to different, cheney & bush have a real tone of assured confidence about this one this time. However, the details of the plan aren't available right now, they will let us know later on. In the meantime let's all pray for the troops in "harms way" heroically fighting for our freedoms.

8. The last place that bush would occupy is Saudi.

In fact, bush isn't going to do anything anymore, he is simply making up new reasons for why we are in/staying forever in Iraq.

9. No,its the Sunni's in Saudi Arabia

who are threatened by the Bush takeover of Iraq's oilfields and the
cozy Shia's relationships with Iran's Shia population.Saudi's and the
Wahabi's will not permit or allow a free Iraq..that's my guess for now.

10. Yes...for some reason, when you kill a man's daughter or son, when

you rape his wife or children, the man is liable to become angry and turn into a "terrorist".

So funny thing is, the more women and children we kill, the more "terrorists" there are.

Unfortunately rightwingnuts and bush are too fucking stupid to grasp this.
