The world held its breath. Americans held hope. George Bush, the Texas cowboy, still somehow thinks he’s got it right when 70% of Americans are certain he’s wrong. Bush sounds almost like the reaper himself promising many more casualties for all, yes, that’s the polite word for DEATHS. So What the hell is going on?

Human lives no longer count, especially non-white, to the US administration. They are catering to their base of corporate lobbyists, giving contracts (for war-related works, which means more war equals more work) to their friends and families, guaranteeing a renewal of votes for the next election. It’s simple political manoeuvers at the expense of american and foreign lives, people with pasts and futures…

Do you have ANY idea how depressing it is for me as an American to read that so many of your posted blogs are about the U.S. government? Do not get me wrong. Every word that you have been writing is true, but it saddens me that the world might be judging EVERY American to be like Bush and his cronies. My representatives and senators are constantly hearing from me that I want this idiocy to end, and that this war in unwinnable and was unwinnable to begin with.
My father is a Vietnam vet, and he said this is just like Vietnam-a war that cost much and earned us nothing. Nothing good, anyway.
