I'm amazed at how this monkey has succeeded in "dumbing down" this country. OF COURSE we're losing our asses because we're over there.

Stopping the war wont save the economy right away, but if we allow a coalition of surrounding countries and other countries including from the EU that would jump to make the money that Bush and Cheney have greedily kept to Halliburton alone since the beginning, to come in and help rebuild Iraq, then oil will flow a lot sooner and the price will come down. This is what needs to happen anyway, so we can get our troops out.
Anyone with half a brain knows that jihad will end when Iraqis can see that America has relaxed her stranglehold grip on their country and intend to truly leave. Some incidents will still occur, but it will not be jihad. For the most part, peace would return.
Oil cannot break out like it can and needs to because the US has to wait to save face by being able to call it a victory, then it can let the oil loose under ownership of Exxon or Shell. Then maybe- if we're lucky.- They MIGHT let prices go down again, since there will be a lot more supply out there.

It's a double vice. While we all wait for this to happen, the oil companies are making out like bandits because the price of the black stuff has gone up so high, since stopping the flow from Iraq makes it more scarce. They couldn't have dreamed a better situation.

If McCain was to come out and say that if he wins he will work to lower Gas prices, he would be way up front, because this is what is ruining our economy and making life tougher.
But he can't and he won't, because that would pit him against the oil companies that have their storybook romance with history all sewn up, thanks to W. This is also where McCain is showing that he has no balls. At least not enough to be our Pres.

This is why Dems should go ahead and have the balls to say that they will work to lower gas prices, get elected, and follow the course to make that oil available quick. They'll win the election in spite of those corporate bastards, and Exxon will have to be satisfied with screwing us up the yang only during W's reign.

Then, like an onion peeling off layers in a bar b-q pit, Americans will begin to see how they have been taken by this criminal. It will become more and more clear that had he gone into Iraq with the rest of the world from the beginning, and allowed the other countries to have the lucrative contracts that Cheney kept for Halliburton alone, it's very realistic to see that thousands of our brave soldiers would not have needed to be killed, or wounded. Our economy did not need to tank. Jihad was designated against the American Empire this coward never had the balls to call an occupation. They would not have fought the whole world.

This country will not stay so ignorant forever. His rating has a long way lower to go yet.

Don't forget Bush/Cheney want to squarely place the blame for the popolace failure to continue to embrace the war on liberals and the media. We must debunk the lie that it's media and liberals that
are responsible for the whole Country being demoralized and losing it's nerve. The war-mongers lost the Country based on the expectations set by themselves:

- 400,000 tropps needed for stability: can Shinseki

- War will cost at least $200 Billion: can Lindsey

- Rumsfeld on how long will it last: "6 days, maybe 6 weeks, I doubt 6 months"

- Missioned Accomplished

- Last throes

- Turning the corner when Saddam is caught

- Turning the corner when elections are held

- Turning the corner when __________

And so many more outrageous lies that set the (false) expectations that are coming home to roost. These false expectations were not set by the media or by liberals - they were set by a deceiving Administration at the short-term cost of tens of thousands of lives destroyed and Trillions of US$. Unfortunately the long-term costs (in lost World standing, future terrorism, and general US weakness in the World) are going to be much worse for generations to come.

It appears that approximately 30% of the population is always wrong about everything, which means that they can effectively be factored out of the equation as an unchanging constant and summarily ignored - in other words 70% is the new 100%.

It's destroying our economy.

The other 30% coincides with the percentage of votes McCain will garner in November.

So wait a minute; let me see if I have this: The Bush administration was wrong in 2003 when they said that their war against the people of Iraq was only going to cost $1.6 billion, tops? Imagine my surprise!

We should just cut and run

Actually it is BUSH himself that has hurt this economy and country.

no way does iraq hurt our economy.

we can have guns and butter and oil 40 years worth.

god bless the iraqis and their puppet government.

this is capitalism man not socialism.

capitalism is about profits not stupid social programs.

now that we have taken most manufacturing jobs out of america to max corp profits the only ones left are our industrial military complex jobs and hopefully those can be taken over seas soon to max industrial military corp profits.$$­$$$$$$$

once we rid ourselves of that pesty middle class I can enjoy my fox news in peace and quiet in my gated community.

god bless america and god bless capitalism.

bless you reagan for your trickle down theory the middle class bought it lock stock and barrel. ie states like ohio.

bye bye middle class nice knowing ya. all you did was whine and bitch. get over it capitalism is for the few not the many. profits reign supreme.$$­$$$$$$$$$$

fast forward to 1:07:20 thru to at least 1:22:00, it's unbelievable.

But, but,... I thought Chimpy said that the war helps the economy. People must not belive Chimpy anymore, finally, after all those lies he told us about WMDs and such.

How could the Iraq war not have hurt the economy? Generating 600 billion dollars worth of additional debt certainly isn't going to help the economy.

Make the tax cuts permanent, pass the estate tax , make war permanent, yeah, thats the ticket.

I guess the numbers jive with Bush's support but I still for the life of me don't understand how he has even one percent support.Th­ese thirty percenters can't be real Americans,can they?I really am having a tough time wrapping my brain around that many idiots living in the good old USA. Should they even be allowed to reproduce?
