 How can we go when we don't know why we came?
That's the prickly problem with our ongoing debacle in Iraq, we don't have any clear idea why we're fighting there, even though we started it. The cynical might give oil and all that, as the really, real reason. So we're there for oil, we should say so, and then act in an accordingly slippery manner, but nope. Not even that to hang our jingoistic hats on.
Now the sophist neo-cons have gone all neo-colonial on us. Surprise! That's our brand new itty-bitty widdle middle east empire there, now. Teach them well, the little brown babys about the White Man and his burdens and hard working.
Sysyfus got a better deal than our military on this one, mission accomplished, indeed, this mission, that mission, any old mission at all, accomplished if you please? It's become painflly obvious over this long war, that certian persons who should care about these things don't. It's as if they've lost interest.
Weapons of mass destruction? They hadn't any. Saddam's supposed links to international terrorism? Inconclusive. Any links to the 9/11 plot? None proven. Bringing democracy upon a previously sovereign and intact state who has not asked for our help? Was there ever a real threat?
Like the Supreme Court went to Florida, Bush invaded Iraq, and for the very same reason, because they could. It was like; Stop counting the votes, and start torturing the prisoners. It really all went down too fast.
Now, why, why would we add more troops to this bloody, expensive mess, rather then less? Raising the blood bounty for 2008? An auctioning-off of each soldier's life for even larger campaigns funding even more brutal killers to the apex of power, where they make war at their whimsy, because, and just because? You're at attention, boy.
Nobody knows, da trouble I CIC's, nobody knows my sorrow.
Bush doesn't like to admit his mistakes, let alone correct himself, and he doesn't care how many of the troops will die until we learn this dangerous mind of his, and begin to obviate some of the damage he's doing now, and has pledged to continue, there apparently being no power on earth great enough to make him do it, if he doesn't want to.
He really is a Commander-in-Chief to die for. He's got those spurs that go jingle, jingle, jingle. With the Great Seal on his boots, and Iraq under his heel, and spurs that like a cowboy, make him feel. And act. What the fuck is wrong with this guy? He wouldn't last a week as a cowboy, that's much harder work that sending kids off to die for his insane ambitions and inability to self -correct.
