DETROIT -- George W. Bush has made a mess of America's role in the world, and it will take decades to undo the harm his "big bully" and "my way or the highway" foreign policy has created.

The lies and deception about the purposes for invading Iraq will not go away, and the president's repeated assertion that Iraq is the "central front" in the war on terrorism is more fabricated nonsense used to justify the difficult and costly occupation of the nation doomed to be an American puppet and base for U.S. military operations in the Middle East.

Last Friday, Bush made a campaign speech to the troops from the Army's Third Infantry Division on their return to their home base at Fort Stewart, Ga. Unlike his speech the Sunday night before, when George W. was shaky and somber with that "just goosed" look as he told the taxpayers they'd have to cough up another $87 billion for the war, the president was all smirk and confidence, beaming in the Georgia sun.

He loves speaking on military bases -- no demonstrators and guaranteed adulation and applause. He refused to bring his case for war with Iraq to the European Parliament because he couldn't be guaranteed a standing ovation. Differences and dissension unsettle our fearless leader.

1. Hitler liked making speeches to the troops, too.

Easy to gaurentee a friendly audiance, you just take all the known troublemakers and order them somewhere else, then order everyone left to behave or else.
