USA CEO GWB repeatedly says: "The way we're runnin' this war..." Sound flippant?

Another reminder we need callous, cutthroat, crappy corporate managers OUT of government office at EVERY level.

3. Since the early '90's we've been told businessmen should run gov't
as they purged "career politicians." Look where it got us. Listening to * and Rummy talk about this bloody Iraq war, they sound like they care as much as if they're making deals on outsourced tennis shoes. They don't even PRETEND to care.

5. You pegged it...
this country is nothing but one big cash cow for them. The American people and our tax dollars are nothing but stupid sheep for them to fleece. As far as they are concerned only they and their rich croney friends who put them there are the stockholders.

They don't give a shit about this country or what it stands for, it's all about the bottom line for them--PROFIT, at any cost.

It's treasonous.

6. Indeed
Listening to the speech, it seems * is only talking to those "rich croney friends" and not the Merkan Sheeple: "Yeah, the way we're runnin' this war...................."

2. Wars are not 'run', they're 'fought'
Edited on Wed Oct-25-06 10:22 AM by djohnson
And CEO's don't know anything about fighting.

9. Yes.
The "business model" should be expunged, even from business itself.

The professional manager of today is useless and skill-less, a jock partier in a suit bluffing and cocktailing his way through life.

I hope to see the day when people stop falling for these fucking clowns.

12. The notion that the highest virtue is to...
...stuff your pockets with as much cash as possible, everything else be damned, and "service" is for chumps has been the ruling philosophy in this country since Reagan.

We are NOT better off because of it.
