Bush Sees Brighter Future in Iraq

34 minutes ago
By PETE YOST, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - President Bush says the United States will successfully pursue its work in Iraq in the face of a violent insurgency that seeks to undermine a peaceful transfer of power to Iraqis on June 30.

Bush said the bigger picture in Iraq is somewhat brighter.

Electricity is now more widely available than before the war, he said, and Iraq has a stable currency with thriving banks, renovated schools and clinics and rebuilt power plants, hospitals, water and sanitation facilities and bridges.

4. ANOTHER LIE!

excerpt from the link:


"Despite many challenges, life for the Iraqi people is a world away from the cruelty and corruption of Saddam's regime" and "we will finish our work," Bush said Saturday in his weekly radio address.


In view of photos just released depicting abominable Torture of the Iraqi prisoners--

Bush continues to LIE to the American People!

IMPEACH the LIAR!

[enough]

5. One flag isn't enough for him

Now he has THREE American Flags behind him, plus the lapel pin. I guess he just hasn't been getting enough juice out of poor Old Glory so he decided to up the ante.

civilians, and Iraqi's. How very noble of you, mr. bush.

[Calico Jack Rackham]

10. Yes a better future.

which includes a free sodomizing from U.S. troops. Complimentary upon liberation of course.

[GermanDJ]

11. Electricity is now more widely available

Another opportunity Bush blew up: If you try to spread a lie like this, you should make sure that nobody's on location to disprove it:

Naomi Klein writing about her visit to Iraq three weeks ago:

" Sadr City has seen little of Iraq's multi-billion-dollar “reconstruction,” which is partly why Muqtader Sadr and his Mahadi army have so much support here. Before U.S. occupation chief Paul Bremer provoked Sadr into an armed conflict by shutting down his newspaper and arresting and killing his deputies, the Mahadi army was not fighting coalition forces, it was doing their job for them.

After all, in the year it has controlled Baghdad, the Coalition Provisional Authority still hasn’t managed to get the traffic lights working or to provide the most basic security for civilians. So in Sadr City, Sadr's so-called “outlaw militia” can be seen engaged in such subversive activities as directing traffic and guarding factories from looters. In a way, the Mahadi army is as much Bremer’s creation as it al Sadr’s: it was Bremer who created Iraq's security vacuum -- Sadr simply filled it."

12. One of the more disgraceful things you'll read recently,

is the fact that Bush knew about the torture of prisoners in Abu Ghraib prison. Scott McClellan said yesterday, "Bush has known about it for quite some time".

And at the same time, Bush wanted "massive punishment" in Fallujah after the 4 mercenaries were killed recently.

It's becoming all too clear who they are, and what they want.

[readmylips]

13. Bush sees brighter future for...

Bush Evill Family. After we kick him out of office, all the oil companies of the world will shower him with more wealth, power and recognition, etc, at the expense of our dead soldiers.

Why did it had to be John Fitzgeral Kennedy? Why not this evil bastard. Off to say my 100 hail Mary's.

[LizW]

14. He's moving there? Yay!!!

Oh. Shit. Never mind.

[MotorCityMan]

15. Well, at least SOMEone does

What the fuck else is the "moran" going to say?

World to Bush*; remove the rose-colored glasses and let the reality sink in.

17. THE ONLY RAPE AND TORTURE ROOMS ARE AMERICAN NOW

At the Article 32 Hearing (like a grand jury hearing) Specialist Matthew Wisdom, an M.P under
oath stated

Wisdom said:
SFC Snider grabbed my prisoner and threw him into a pile. . . . I do not think it was right
to put them in a pile. I saw SSG Frederic, SGT Davis and CPL Graner walking around the
pile hitting the prisoners. I remember SSG Frederick hitting one prisoner in the side of its
ribcage. The prisoner was no danger to SSG Frederick. . . . I left after that.
When he returned later, Wisdom testified:
I saw two naked detainees, one masturbating to another kneeling with its mouth open. I
thought I should just get out of there. I didn’’t think it was right . . . I saw SSG Frederick
walking towards me, and he said, ““““Look what these animals do when you leave them
alone for two seconds.”””” I heard PFC England shout out, ““““He’’’’s getting hard"

18. Is the "brighter" future from the "light at the end of the tunnel"?

Which is then followed by "Peace with Honor" which is followed by flying off the roof of the Baghdad embassy in helicopters?
