It was bad enough before we lost our soldiers in Iraq. Powell above all others knew we did not have the power, equipment or soldiers to win a war in Iraq.
I wonder how any of them sleep at night with the death rate going higher every day. I stood loudly opposed to Bush in 2000 and was nearly hysterical when so many Republicans stood behind him in 2004. I knew what was happening when I read the 1992 platform and attended the meetings around the 2000 platform and they were identical. Force Democracy in the Middle East to save them from themselves. Of course taking oil was not mentioned in the platform but anyone with a 2nd grade education knew about it. It was the first action for a one world order under America.
The North American Union was also part of the plan which meant no borders north or south of America. Look at the mess we are in now with up to 20 million illegal aliens in America. Our security is in the dumps and Bush struts his stuff all over all of us.
I am not psychic but I have read history and it was clear from day one that the One World Order of the Neoconservatives was in the works starting with Bush 41, Clinton and Bush 43.
Colin Powell knew what the neocons wanted and he fell into line to help them take on Iraq. I am beyond disgust with the whole lot of them. What the hell got into the Republican Party under Bush/Clinton/Bush that totally destroyed our credibility in our own government? Was it the desire for world power under Christianity? It looks that way to me and it brought out all the religious extremist wackos out of the closet and into our discussions.
RR is now balanced but I remember when it was not! Doug was balanced in his refusal to get involved in the Christian Conservative force here. But we had some lulus who were militant in their desire for a Christian Nation.
I've given up any thought for a limited government. It cannot exist in our new dictatorship within the white house. Changing parties will not stop this. Americans need to want their freedoms back and it should be an issue in the 2008 elections but it won't be. Abortion and Gay marriages will be the focus and not much else.
Can we force them out of the debates? Can we not demand freedoms equally for all Americans?
How can we prioritize what we want? Out of Iraq? Equal Rights? Closed borders? Remove corruption by enforcing our laws? Where do we start? Who can we work with?
These are questions I would be asking on the home page if I were still there. I cannot be there as many do not like my opinions. I just hope I can be here.
