George
W. Bush
Discerns the Noble Cause in Iraq
How will
George W. Bush answer Cindy Sheehan's simple question? There
is a chance that this president will never face up to the question,
"What exactly was the noble cause that we invaded Iraq for?" But if he ever does, I expect he'll use a method
similar to the one shown here.
We've gone
through, and discarded as bunk, all the choices on the board at
least twice. Lately this White House hasn't even offered a new
attempt at a new after-the-fact justification for this war.
They not only think Cindy Sheehan is below their radar, but they
haven't been willing to come up with a good creative lie for the
rest of us in the last few months.
At this
point, the best way to honor those already dead is to bring those
still living back home, at least until this President can come up
with a actual noble cause.
People will
undoubtedly consider this position, cut-and-run. I can only
remember how Nixon faced the same charge when he finally pulled out
of Vietnam (a war started and escalated by other presidents.)
I think it's only just that this President, who was so hard over
for this war, take the political heat of getting us out of the
mess. If his personal history is any indicator, he will leave
this quagmire for others to clean up and continue deluding himself,
and his shrinking cadre of yes-men, that there is a noble cause for
the Iraq invasion (although they haven't been able to come up with
one yet that has proved factual.)

I
am convinced that you can draw a pretty decent cartoon (not particularly
good, just better than average.) I used
to think that a person had to have some smarts to draw well. You
have proven me wrong. A total moron can learn to draw.
KB |
| I
never do anything that requires me to have some smarts...for obvious
reasons. |
|
I
love it.
You
have just the right amount of monkey in this one. The way you
left the white space around the dart is interesting.
OR |
| That
was an Idea I stole from the great Bob DeOre. It's supposed to show
that the dart is still in the air. |
|
The
hatred must be churning in you. Do you hate only Bush or all
conservatives?
GH |
|
I
know I've hit a soft spot when this in the only conservative attack
I get. It is tiresome and lazy on your part but I
felt this view had to be shown here because I do get a lot of
similar messages.
Once
again, for the record, I hate no one. Hate is a useless
emotion.
|
|
This
is a sad reminder on all the lies told by this administration on
Iraq. How many must die to give this President enough of a
#####?
KL |
|
Uhhhh.
I have a different take. I feel that the President has failed
to show sufficient
interest in the mess he's made of Iraq. Instead of 'finding it
exciting', as I paraphrase your theory, this President avoids all
honest assessments of his Noble Cause.
|
|
Have
you ever done your duty in the US military?
WR |
|
At
this time I am an American citizen that is not a member of the armed
services. This is a position that allows me to speak out when
I feel we are using our military in the wrong way. I am
empowered by the US constitution to speak out against Mr. Bush's
war.
|
|
I
just thought that if you had ever been in their position, you might
have a better idea of how this sort of America bashing hurts the
troops morale.
WR |
|
It
is all about them. My only hope is that as many as possible of
them get home safely to tell me to my face what a fool I am.
That will be a bitter sweet victory for peace loving Americans
everywhere.
|
|
Haven't
you overlooked the President's recent statements about staying the
course to honor those who have already died.
KN |
|
OH
BROTHER. I heard that and choose to ignore it (until you
brought it up.) First of all, this is an attempt to justify
staying in Iraq and can not be applied to going there in the first
place. Second, it is just incredibly silly. Does it make
grieving Mom A feel better to know that more Moms will be grieving
along with her? This statement by the President was an insult
to all of us.

Dope-smoking,
America-bashing, tree-hugging, hybrid-driving, peaceniks like
you should all be rounded up and sent to Tikrit.
