When oh when will there be a revolution in this country and throw out this war criminal and his thugs? This is wholesale murder and Bush and his cronies should be taken out from Washington in chains and transported directly to the Hague. How can anybody even deceive themselves with thinking we live in a democracy? Halliburton and the Carlyle group boys gave a holler to chimp in chief to deal with this dang EYE-RAK problem, to protect their investment; always maximize shareholder's return remember!
