Yep, Bush said so in Australia the other day.

What a complete fool! Is that a Christian thing to say? Our brave soldiers die every day with many Iraqi citizens, and we're kicking ass? This isn't a video game George, these are real lives.

First of all, he's not doing anything. Our brave men and women are those who are battling it out under the extreme conditions of a civil war in the middle of the desert. When it was his turn to "kick ass" in Vietnam Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz decided to stay home.

Second, we're not winning! Bush continues to dangle this progress thing out in front of us, even though its clear that the politics in Iraq continue to disintegrate.

How could one man bring us so much dishonor throughout the world and continue to be so pigheaded as to think we are actually kicking ass in Iraq? The world used to look to us as beacon of hope because of our promotion of freedom and economic progress throughout the world. We worked closely with our allies to win the world wars and the cold war. Now we are disdained for our our go it alone strategy and launching pre-emptive wars.

TO THE CONGRESS:
The Congress must refuse to authorize any further war funding and bring these guys home and end this charade. Use some strategy...its not about whether to defund the troops its about allocating only enough money to bring them home over the next 6-12 months. Do not have another vote about whether to bring them home. Rather have an affirmative vote on the budget to only allocate the funding for withdrawal. Reduce the funding for the war every month in the next budget. And if Bush vetoes withdraw his war authorization that was mistakenly passed in 4 years ago. Rescind any declaration of war implied or explicit in that authorization. That is the Congress's prerogative under the Constitution.
