Reply #57: No further proof needed...

[LeahMira]

Are'nt you hoping for another terrorist attack to prove just how incompetent bushy really is and how right and knowlegable you are?

You're reading it wrong. We have all the proof we need of his incompetence and we're worried that his incompetence is so obvious that any terrorists will feel that they have absolutely nothing to fear if they choose to attack the U.S. again.

The U.S. has spent literally billions of dollars and hundreds of lives taking out a dictator who posed absolutely no threat to this nation. That is not to say that dictators who oppress and kill their own citizens and threaten neighboring nations should not be dealt with in the severest of terms, but the situation in Iraq is an entirely separate situation and one that, IMO, should have more properly been dealt with by the nations of the Middle East backed by the United Nations.

Meanwhile, the U.S. is losing jobs, many more of our own people are a whisper away from bankruptcy and possibly homelessness, and many more have already fallen through the social cracks.

When our seniors can no longer afford health insurance, when our children are no longer learning what they need to know for the future, and when young couples can no longer afford a home of their own, and when all of us (including the media) are constrained from expressing our opinions if those opinions are not the ones "approved" by the administration, the rest of the country will wake up and realize that this nation is governed by an incompetent. When we all come to realize that we have spent so much of our strength and resources, both human and material, in a war that has done nothing to address our safety and that we are still vulnerable to attack from the enemy that we aren't going after, perhaps then the rest of the country will understand the horrible truth.

No one here will take any delight in saying, "We told you so."
