You can call it politics. You can call it anything you want. I call it craven cowardice and chickenheartedness. Just how many more times will the presently constituted GOP hide behind the uniforms of our military troops? How many more soldiers will die and be maimed so as to save face and ass for the shirker-in-charge? Sure, go ahead Georgie, twist John Kerry’s words, take them out of context, see if you can garner some additional votes and political advantage doing so. That’s some visual–a military deserter calling out a decorated veteran! A wuss who had the opportunity to go fight for a cause he so strongly supported but chose to safely stay at home, attend weekend National Guard meetings whenever it was convenient and he was sober enough to get there, and make sure those high flying Viet Cong never entered Galveston Bay. Then he quit to go back to school. It’s not curious George, it’s spineless George!
The Rethuglicans have nothing to offer lest one call more division, greater hate and additional fear thrust upon the American public the current Republican contract on America. It’s attack, attack, attack, instill anxiety and fright, muddle any glint of factuality, fake all discourse, stain the flag but, most importantly, me, me, me, me, me 24/7.
Now, our stalwart President just announced he is standing by his Vice President and Secretary of Defense. He wants them to go the full eight. That it’s personally and politically more important to him to have his two stooges flanking him than secure the safety of your military daughters, sons, wives and husbands is absolutely telling. It’s not George’s life nor any of his family or supporters on the frontline, so those who HAVE volunteered in the defense of their country remain electoral pawns in this trio’s calculated and vile game of lie and denial.

Yes. Mr. Bush-aholic values Dick Cheney’s advice and judgment. That must be especially so when they have their breakfast meetings and Bush continually asks the vice president to keep braying “If you look at the general overall situation [in Iraq], they’re doing remarkably well.” Can’t you hear them laughing as Deadeye Dick says it again and again?
His Majesty Bush also recently gave plaudits to Donald Rumsfeld for overseeing the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The only thing he left out is ‘Rummy, you’re doing a heckuva job.”
There’s only a few days left before the election. What next will born-again George (and his bagman Rove) determine is needed before the voting actually takes place? These verbal terrorists will hold back on no sin if such epithets aid their cause. They are the true purveyors of pornography, the milquetoast tossers of obscenities and providers of perversion, miscreants who gladly piss on the cross of their supposed saviour each and every day in order to win votes. Them’s some values.
