BLOOD IN THE MORNING, BLOOD AT NIGHT
by Malik Isasis



The BBC reported on January 2, 2007 that Bush is expected to reveal his plan for a troop boost to stabilize Iraq. This should not come as a surprise, over the past six years Bush has shown that this Occupation will continue as long as he is president. When he said that, I believed him.

The new 110th Democratic Congress will begin on January 4, 2007, their mission if they choose to accept it? Drastically change the direction in which the country is going. That means they can no longer sit in the back seat and cover their eyes, as George W. Bush plays chicken with a brick wall.

I am tired of George Bush…so are most Americans, so is the world.

Bush lacks imagination, and sophistication. The only diplomatic tool he has is a hammer, so every problem becomes a nail. The amount of carnage unleashed by Bush and his policies is not sustainable, that brick wall will not give way, and it will be us in the back seat getting thrown into the windshield.

In 2007 President Bush will further push this country into a Constitutional crisis as he moves to increase the troops in Iraq and seek billions more to support an Occupation, that is not only illegal, but immoral.

The funding for the Occupation must be withdrawn by the Democratic Congress, thereby ending the Occupation.

We are the source wound in Iraq. In order to heal, the bleeding must stop. Currently, there is no incentive for Bush to be an adult and have discussions with people he doesn’t like. There is no incentive for Bush to take responsibility for the psychological, emotional and financial destruction of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi and Americans’ lives, because the Congress has been derelict in its duties by rubber stamping the death and destruction; and the media for romanticizing the war by death-worshipping dead soldiers.

There’s nothing romantic about war.

Nothing.

Democrats, no more negotiating with President Bush, the American people have spoken.

Pull the plug, by withdrawing the funding. End the Occupation.
