Make A New Plan, Sam!

Wednesday, January 10, 2007, George W. Bush unveiled his all-new, totally revised, straight out of left field plans for winning the war in Iraq. As I watched this man insult the intelligence of every American ear that tuned into hear his stratagy, it suddenly struck me that he had once again dressed up "Stay The Course" in a brand new outfit, like Paris Hilton dresses up her chihuahua. And, just like Paris still has a chihuahua no matter what outfit she put on it, we are still staying the course. Instead of hitting our heads against a brick wall, this time we will hit our heads against a brick wall.... harder!!
I heard George Bush call the Iraqi Committee, "thoughtful men", on his way to keep on doing what is already proven to NOT be working. He has fired all the generals, mainly, I'm sure, for the building dissent on what Iraq may really need. I also heard him say that he would, "welcome any ideas from the Democrats on how to acheive victory in Iraq." Well, first, Mr. President, you have to stop doing what you are doing!
I know that that is not going to happen! The good thing is that George is doing the wrong thing so well that I predict a 90% adversity to most everything he says from now on. Finally, a step toward bipartisan effort.
Seriously, Mr. Bush, we don't want to play toy soldiers with you any more. You promised us a win in the Middle East. First, you promised us Osama in Afganistan, then you promised us a United Nations front in Iraq and weapons of mass destruction that we would dismantle. Then we would pump Iraqi oil to pay for our adventure and we would topple Saddam. Okay, we did get Saddam, but honestly, his death didn't do a thing for me, except to see the evil in my own country that we were supposed to be stopping in Iraq.
Stop the war... I want to go home.... now.
