When they look into each other 'Souls', all they see is 'Oil'. If Dubya can't get Kuwait to be a Democracy, why even learn the word?http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2006/10/31/9464.aspx#9494Tue, 31 Oct 2006 15:09:23 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:9494mikeeg,abdn,waits time to admit the truth bushes noble experiment in democracy in that area of the world is a miserable failure.http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2006/10/31/9464.aspx#9503Tue, 31 Oct 2006 15:57:18 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:9503Steve Turner Cedar Falls IowaYeah mikeeg.

For the good ol' USA he has curtailed our civil rights (elimination of habeas corpus), taunted and bullied those who disagree, set up his little cabal of criminals to fleece our treasury, used the Religious Right as pawns, slandered war heros who are members of the opposition, spewed lie after lie, involved us in an endless war (IRAQ), broken law after law upsurping Congress' Constitutional power (signing statements) ...OH I have to stop the list here. I don't want someone to discount my comments as ultra-left, or ultra right ect....It is a strange situation for me. I have always considered myself an independant centrist but since our aristocracy has abused their power and trod upon our Constitutional Rights, I find myself being 'labeled' too. Recently as extreme left? Has our center been shifted to the left column because of this collection of shiftless, immoral hypocites? It must have, because my core beliefs haven't changed. Too bad Dubya didn't promote democracy, freedom and justice for all here at home. They had a chance to have make a positive mark in history, now their time in power will be looked down upon as a 'dark age' in America. As in a love relationship, "it really didn't have to be this way" Sad Sad Sad state of affairs. VOTE!!
