We all learned in school that our government was special because it was a government of the people, for the people and by the people. The Bush administration has determined that this is not the way to run a country. They have proudly stated that they do not pay attention to polls, and that the president is not tasked with fulfilling the wishes of the populace, rather it is his responsibility to do what is in the best interest of the "Nation". Apparently the Bushites consider the "Nation" to be something other than the people.
The overwhelming majority of Americans are against the "surge" of troops sent to Iraq, and rightly so. Regardless, the surge is a reality, and the deaths and dismemberments that will ensue will also be a sad reality.
Some Americans feel strongly that the current administration (Bush and Cheney) should be impeached. Perhaps a more fitting punishment for their high crimes and misdemeanors should be amputation of some or all of their limbs.
Tonight the president will again regale the nation with his pie in the sky plans for the coming year. Considering that none of what he proposed and/or promised last year has come to fruition, I think that I will watch the Indiana University basketball game instead of listening to the Chimp in Charge.
