Yet another of my wacko friends...
All of you should be really happy to have me here at DU... 'cause I'm intimately familiar with the worst of the worst of the conservative movement! :)

Here's something one of my friends wrote:

"Election 2004- Support our Troops and Democracy- Vote George W."

Does she have any idea what she's talking about? I know I don't have to explain it to my enlightened compatriots here at DU, but I will anyway.

Troops: Prez. Dumbass has tried to cut combat and separation pay for our soldiers in Iraq. His military pay raises amounted to a pittance. He has slashed veterans programs, leaving those who defended our nation in the past without the care and support they need today. Oh, yeah, and he sends them to die in a pointless war so he can make money and garner some supposed prestige, I almost forgot that part...

Democracy: This is the guy who stole the 2000 election, is allowing Tom DeLay to gerrymander his way across the country to congressional power and is counting on BBV and his brother to win him the election in 2004.

WTF?????

Thank God for DU where I can vent and get some comfort from you fine people.

4. Not If Kerry or Clark
is the nominee - veterans and military prefer real men who served vs fake, unelected AWOL frauds who dress up in military outfits.

WASHINGTON – A year ago, on Oct. 1, one of the most important documents in U.S. history was published and couriered over to the White House.

The 90-page, top-secret report, drafted by the National Intelligence Council at Langley, included an executive summary for President Bush known as the "key judgments." It summed up the findings of the U.S. intelligence community regarding the threat posed by Iraq, findings the president says formed the foundation for his decision to preemptively invade Iraq without provocation. The report "was good, sound intelligence," Bush has remarked.

A smoking gun found now wouldn't even undo the lies. It wouldn't negate the fact that the president had no such evidence before the war when he claimed Saddam and Osama were thick as thieves, contradicting the intelligence community's threat assessment. He simply turned around and told the public a whopper.

Forget that Bush lied about the reasons for putting our sons and daughters in harm's way in Iraq; and forget that he sent 140,000 troops there with bull's-eyes on their backs, then dared their attackers to bring it on.



That's inexcusable, and Bush supporters with any intellectual honesty and concern for their own families' safety should be mad as hell about it – and that's coming from someone who voted for Bush.
