AP Writer Anne Flaherty reports: Sen. John Warner, a prominent Republican on military affairs, urged President Bush on thursday to start bringing some troops home by Christmas, a move the senator said would send a powerful warning to the Iraqi government that time is running out. Warner, R-VA, Who spent the morning at the White House meeting with Bush's top aides, said the President next month should announce the withdrawal of a certain number of troops to send a "sharp and clear message throughout the region and the United States" that the commitment in Iraq is not open ended. "We simply cannot as a nation stand and continue to put Our Troops at continuous risk of loss of life and limb without beginning to take some decisive action" He told Reporters. Warner visited Iraq this month with Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., chairman of the armed services committee. Warner is a ranking member of the of the panel and former chairman. The Virginia Republican said He still would not support Democratec legislation championed by Levin that would call for Bush to bring troops home by a certain date. " let the President establish the timetable for withdrawal, not the Congress," He said
You sleasy fucking Politians make Me sick. You stupid Bastards don't You remember that Iraq had a government in place until The goddamn Texas Terrorist decided to take out Saddam for the oil? What kind of neocon bullshit is this? Sen. Warner wants to send a strong message to the puppet government that the unlawful administration of this country put in place. The stupid bastard says that the USA commitment in Iraq is not open ended. shit fire, how many times have We heard that swill. Hello out there You goddamned bunch of sorry, money grubing sacks of shit. We shouln't be in Iraq in the first place, but now that We are, all You can do is point fingers at the victims and say You better get Your shit together. Sen. Warner wants some troops home by christmas He says, He also says that We as a nation cannot continue to put Our Troops at continuous risk of loss of life and limb. Fuck Me till I cry, Who the fuck put the Troops in harms way in the first place? Was it the Iraqis? Was it the Iranians? Was it the Bogie Man? Hell no it was G.W. Bush who has never been in harms way in His life, it was Our arse licking elected representatives, democrat and republican, it was the loony christian right wing fundamentalists and Their deluded Followers. Now the crazy fuckers want to bomb Iran. This shit is incomprehensible to Me, I stand in awe at the gross stupidity of those Who support these greedy, evil bloodsuckers. How many Troops do You think will be home for christmas? I'm thinking not many if the "Decider" has His way.

The Philosopher
Our high school "social studies" teacher asked each of Us students to write a short eassay on Our philosophy of life and to hand them in at the end of class. The next day Mr W. said that He had picked out the essay that had really stood out to Him and that He would read it to the class. The paper was My friend Roger's. It was short and to the point " My philosophy of life is to be a Good ol' Boy." That was it. We all had a good laugh, even Mr. W. was laughing. There We were, expecting a long serious, boring paper. What We got was so much better, I know I laughed until My side hurt and others did the same. It was one of those "You had to be there" moments and even though it took place almost 50 years ago, I still chuckle when I think about it. I also remember Mr. W.'s comments, not word for word after all these years, but pretty damn close, at least close enough to get the idea across. He said, " poor ol' Roger, He'll never get anywhere in life if He persues His goal of being just a good ol' Boy. There's no future in it, the pool halls are full of good ol' Boys Who can't find work because they didn't get an education. They go from one dead end job to another, living from paycheck to paycheck and never saving one penny. The good ol' Boys are the ones that always seem to need a couple of bucks, till Friday, Their car is always broke down, so They always need a ride somewhere. These Guys are a dime a dozen, and They ain't worth that. One of these days Someone will say, "sure I know Roger, I like Roger, He ain't worth a damn, but He's a good ol' Boy." Just then the bell rang and We escaped social studies and headed off for Our next classes. I felt almost sorry for Mr. W. Roger was acting a fool for the fun of it and Mr. W. was so out of touch with His students that He didn't realize it. From that time on it was obvious that He thought Roger was a lost cause and quit calling calling on Him in class. In fact, He basically ignored Him for the remainder of the course, which suited Roger just fine.

Karl Rove resigns
Great, Karl says He's quitin' to spend more time with His Family, and also if He hangs out in His office after Aug. 07 He would have to remain until 2009. BULLSHIT, Something very sneaky is going on. I know, I'm paranoid as hell, but I just can't believe that Turd blossom is quiting because His family comes first. At least that's the way I read it. All of a sudden Karl decides that He should be at home with His Kinfolk instead of hangin' with G.W.B & Co. Hey thats fine with Me, and I just might buy it if I was one of the last remaining supporters of this present out of control administration We labor under at the present time. The truth of the matter is that I really don't buy anything these political types put out. I personally wouldn't give a nickle for any of these self serving, egotistical, morally challenged thieves that We now have running for the office of POTUS. There is not one of the candidates of either party that I would buy a fuckin' used car from, Hell I wouldn't even be able to afford a used car one of these shysters would have for sale. As usual, I'm getting way off subject, which was Karl Rove. I think He is coverin' His ass and wants to quit before the democrats grow brave enough to call Him to answer some very hard questions. I said "before" but should have said, "if" the dems get brave enough. Don't worry, Karl will still be there somewhere in the picture, just not where He will be the most obvious. The real predators keep out of sight until the time to strike comes around.

Our friends, the Saudis
The Saudis are such good friends of Ours that Our ever wise government has okayed a 28 billion dollar arms sale to Them. Great, good for the House of Saud. Politicians talk about spreading freedom and democracy around the world. They talk about how Our enemies are repressive tyrants Who hate Our freedoms and Our way of life. Holy shit, has Anyone looked at Saudi Arabia lately. Not exactly the best example of democracy with rights for All regardless of faith or gender. I am a simple Kansas bumpkin so I know I can't comprehend things of this magnitude. I just don't have the brains or common sense of Our foreign policy Experts. I am foolish enough to think that it ain't a good idea to dump all this firepower off in such a volatile area as the middle east. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, We also made a deal with those lovable Israelis for some weapons of Their own. To Me this sounds like pouring gasoline on a house fire, but as I said. What do I know?

190,000 rifles and pistols missing
I read in an article by Glenn Kessler of the Washington Post that the pentagon reportedly lost track of 190.000 assault rifles and pistols given to Iraqi security forces in 2004 and 2005. This sounds to Me like a whole lot of weapons to lose, but what do I know? This may be a very average number of weapons lost by any given army at any given time. Has it came down to the point where, with no so called victory in sight Our wise leaders have decided to arm everyone in Iraq and let what happens, happen? That would really be war on the cheap. Also in the WP was an article july 27 that told about the U.S. military plan to arm Iraqi sunni residents," to improve security and promote reconciliation at the neighborhood level." Gee whiz, that sounds like a brillant idea. Maybe this same logic could be applied here in the USA where gang violence is becoming quite a problem in Our cities. Law enforcement agencys could simply hand out weapons to the various gangs and let them go at it. After while, all fall down, gang problem solved. Of course there would be some innocent bystanders falling down too, but what the hell? You got to break a few eggs, don't ya know.

What the hell?
The Democrats have let Us down again. They have caved into Bush as is Their habit and made it easier to spy on Us all. I would like to think that this is all part of a plan to vindicate Us in the end by pulling off some kind of end run and flanking the White House, You know, something that We could all look back on and say, "man that was brilliant." Yeah, right, like that's gonna happen. How do We, as a nation, wind up with such greedy, self serving, unscruplous con artists making decisions that effect every living creature on earth in Our name? I don't have an answer to that question but I'm gonna do some thinking on it.
