Yes, the 52% of Americans who think we should withdraw within the next year and the 60% who now say it was not worth going to war (CNN/USA Today/Gallup, Nov. 11-13, 2005) are all traitors according to George Bush. If you think the Iraq was is a mess, you're a traitor, according to the White House and the far-right conservatives controlling the Republican party.
This is yesterday's statement from the White House, responding to concerns from a former Marine Colonel member of Congress who says the war is a disaster:
"Congressman Murtha is a respected veteran and politician who has a record of supporting a strong America. So it is baffling that he is endorsing the policy positions of Michael Moore and the extreme liberal wing of the Democratic party. The eve of an historic democratic election in Iraq is not the time to surrender to the terrorists. After seeing his statement, we remain baffled-nowhere does he explain how retreating from Iraq makes America safer."George Bush thinks the war is going great. George Bush thinks the majority of Americans who have figured out the war isn't going great, well, he thinks you're all traitors. You see, George Bush is stubborn, and he's not very bright. When he makes a mistake he can't admit it, and he needs to find someone to blame, so he's blaming you, the American people. Yes, you are to blame for Bush's failure in Iraq.
Unless of course you're one of the dwindling minority of Americans who thinks Iraq is going great. If you do, and want more of the same, please do vote Republican.
