and it looks like the big guy's finally telling the truth now; to bad it looks like he's not seeing from the same angle as we are:
"The more successful we are on the ground, the more these killers will react."
whew. who knew having a president who doesn't know how to run a country was gonna be a good thing, uh? you guys are lucky. i guess we (canada) should expect some kind of terrorist bombing to start soon, then; 'cause... you know... we also love freedom.
and i'm finally glad to know who's to blame for those terrorist attacks in iraq. thank you, u.s. government.
the flypaper strategy/line is kind of an arrogant, self-serving, and mostly just flat-out sorry excuse which points out the administration's total lack of care for the iraqi people. i'll say this again - how many attacks do you know of that happened on u.s. soil in the past decade aside from september 11th? me - none that i know of. so, the bush administration's excuse of it's better to fight them over there than over here is crap. the terrorists weren't gonna fight us over here, it now seems. they're flocking to iraq because it's closer. but don't believe the administration's line about them not coming over here if they want to. no terrorist planning a major attack in the u.s. has dropped his plans in order to go fight some foot soldiers in iraq, believe you me.
and about that "success" they've been talking about - i'd like to point out that schools and most hospitals never closed during the war, so the u.s. is not as responsible for the "great successes" it hasn't been able to shut up about these past few weeks.
just keep yapping, you dumb fucks. elections are coming.

speaking of which, i just saw this in moby's latest journal entry.
he's just announced a moveon.org contest he's part of (check the list of celebrity judges; moby's really not in bad company). the context involves creating a 30-second tv ad on 'the truth about george bush' that will be aired before bush's january state of the union address.
