The handwriting is again on the wall like in the days of Belteshazzar of Babylon. This is a nation in decline having left God behind and we can expect to pay the price double over. The wholesale killing of 350 so called insurgence in Iraq 3 days ago means we bombed innocent women and children, men to for that matter to destroy the resistance to American occupation of their country. We are now fighting Iranian Shiite Moslems. You might say we are fighting Iran. Iran has discovered one of the world's largest oil reserves at home. A report by Ted Rall speaks it the most accurately entitled America's last war. "Things are a bit trickier for our Texas grown dictator, (G.W. B-u-s-h), burdened as he is by our annoying insistence on forcing him a run for the office he stole fair and square. Now that the invasion of Iraq has been universally acknowledged as an unjustifiable counterproductive distraction from a war on terror that has yet to begin, B-u-s-h needs a still bigger war to distract us even more. When, he figures, we will forget about Iraq the way Iraq made us forget about Afghanistan. North Korea is too dangerous; Syria is too small to do the job. Next up: Iran. It's time to get even for the hostages". We are an aggressor nation so God will cut us off in time the same as he has all tyrants in history that forget his name. "Patriotism means supporting your country always and your government when it deserves it" Mark Twain. One writer always refers to the president as the chimp. I found a website entitled Bushorchimp.com showing the comparison and they do look very much alike. This writer also said it is unfair to chimps to compare them to the president. I was looking for a picture of a chimp anyway to paint a picture of this so called President so I now have. Then there’s this article by Devvy Kidd July 3, 2004 newswithviews.com “As we draw closer to the November elections, Republicans who are terrified of John Kerry becoming the next president have escalated their vitriolic attacks against decent Americans who are also gravely concerned about America's future. Standup Americans are being labeled un- patriotic, stupid or selfish for even thinking about voting outside the Democratic-Republican Party. I use the term Democratic-Republican Party because there is not a dime's worth of difference between the two parties. Anyone who thinks otherwise chooses to willfully remain in a state of denial. These vicious attacks are aimed at Americans who are going to vote a “third party". A large number of states have far more than 3 registered political parties, so use of the term "third-party" is inadequate-throw it away! Why does there have to be this type of label for any party other than the Democratic-Republican Party? I'll tell you why: because repetition of the term "third-party" makes people think that any party other than the Democrat or Republican Party is not a real political party, but rather some fringe organization. It’s all a mind game. I left the Republican Party in 1996 for good and have had no party affiliation ever since. Having run on the Republican ticket for Congress, I got a firsthand look into the machine and it sickened me. The central committee honchos were not the least bit interested in the law, the Constitution or what was right, only “win at all costs". A pernicious course that is hastening the death of this Republic. As the years have passed with a Republican controlled Congress (1995-2004), I have watched them take America closer and closer to a totalitarian government. This is what Republican Party represents: taxation to feed the central bank. The GOP stands for gutless representation by their steadfast refusal to take the necessary steps to abolish the privately-owned Federal Reserve and stop plundering the fruits of our labor via the progressive, communist income tax… promoting the economic destruction of this nation,”
