bush has no plans to change the current course in Iraq ... the money this time will go for the exact same insanity it went for the last 3 times ...

we are bombing Iraqi cities ... we are killing civilians and journalists and rounding up any males in the "bad areas" ... we are building permanent military bases and the world's most expensive embassy ... we still have not properly outfitted our troops with necessary safety gear ... we are establishing a puppet government to cater to the greed of Big Oil and their largest shareholders ... we are alienating almost every other country in the world ... we are helping impose a religious fundamentalist regime on a secular population ... we are pushing an outrageous Constitution that will deny the Sunnis of any future ... we are promoting global terrorism ... we are losing more and more US troops everyday ... we are approaching the $300 billion mark at a time the US has record budget deficits ... we have turned Iraq into a toxic sewer ... Iraqis have little or no water, food shortages and a very high infant mortality rate ... many believe civil war has already broken out ... after 2.5 years, we now have only ONE trained Iraqi battalion able to operate without US assistance ... women will lose most of the rights they've had for generations ... Iraq has had to become an importer of oil ...

the next $50 billion will go for stuff like that ... if Democrats vote for that without a guaranteed near-term timetable for withdrawal, they deserve to lose and lose big ... they are promoting bad policy, actually insane policy, and they are not representing either the American people or even their own constituents ...
