Famous Quotes about War&Peace #45

"What George Bush wants us to believe is that we should ignore the things
we ought to be awakening to because the boogie man is coming!"

Rev. Al Sharpton

Kerry lacks killer instinct

While Kerry came out strongly on the disastrous Bush decision to divert the war on terror, to Iraq, instead of, in his reckoning, the more important focus on Afghanistan, where Osama is supposed to be holding out, he was willing to wound Bush but seriously lacked the killing instinct to come out with the truth, that Bush decision to divert the supposed war on terror to Iraq, was mainly on the behest of Israel and the neocons that had been taking Bush on a big ride.

The sad conspiracy of silence that has stricken the whole America including both political opponents as well as all section of media, into a dangerous state of denial of Israeli factor could not lessen the pain of thousand American dying to avenge the blood thirst of Israel over its half a century to subdue the whole Arab and Muslim world.

Bush is a proxy President for all practical purposes, and unless Kerry has the guts to take on Israel and the Bush neo-con conspirators, Bush will carry the day with his Saddam booty.

Kucinich fans take heart: George Bush is short too!

When Dennis Kucinich was running for President last spring, media pundits told us again and again, "He'll never win. He's too short." As if shortness was the measure of one's ability to lead a nation.

All that changed on September 30 as I watched the Presidential debates and realized that GEORGE BUSH IS SHORT TOO! So. It's given me new hope that Dennis Kucinich could become President in 2008!

Don't you just love a good debate? We learn so much about the candidates. However, I had to disagree with my young neighbor who came over to watch the debates with us. "Bush does NOT look like a monkey," I told her -- even after she directed me to a website about that.

I was also surprised at how intelligently Bush performed without his handlers feeding him scripts.

But the highlight of the debate came when Laura Bush and Theresa Kerry came onstage wearing identical pink outfits. They looked at each other, laughed and gave each other big hugs -- a wonderful example of using diplomacy instead preemptive strikes!

After listening to Bush's rosy picture describing American progress in Iraq, I was shocked this morning to read the following article by Wall Street Journal reporter Farnaz Fassihi regarding what it is REALLY like in Baghdad: http://www.forward.com/campaignconfidential/archives/001096.php
