A Waste Of Time and Money

George Walker Bush will go down in American history as the worst
President in modern times for many reasons that will be written
about for years to come.The Iraq war will be his centerpiece
of total waste.
After 911 he blamed a country
who had nothing to do with the attack and lied to the American
about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction when the real man
was Bin Laden and he knew it.
Yesterday I could not help but think about all the brave dead
American soldiers and all the brave wounded American soldiers
who have given everything for this war.
The Middle East is a vast wasteland of many wars that have been
fought over thousands of years with no one winning.The 10 year
war between Iraq and Iran was a perfect example.
America has so many problems at home and yet we are spending
billions in Iraq in a country that will never be free.If the
Roman Empire gave up thousands of years ago,why are we still
there?
I pray that the next President will end the slaughter and worry
about Americans first in our own backyard.
We need to fix our Schools,re build our Bridges,and Roads,and
Re Build New Orleans,a City that was and still is a mess from
Katrina.
The American people agree with Bush's approval rating at 30%
this morning,maybe letters to Congress will help bring this waste
to an end sooner.
The problem is that Congress can't over ride a veto from Bush,they
don;t have the votes.
So until he is gone in January 2009 American blood and money
will be spent in a vast wasteland called the Middle East.
