Oh, Manchester, So Much To Answer For

Bush's speech was well-delivered claptrap. Notable that in his "message to the Iraqi people" segment, the very first thing he pointed out (in "warning," i.e. "don't you dare do this!") was that (I'm paraphrasing) "the oil wells are the property of the Iraqi people." But this UNJUST WAR isn't about oil, is it, Dubya? No, of course not. It's about our "sovereignity." And not remotely about the guy "who tried to kill [his] Daddy." Right?

The President of the United States is playing an incredibly high-stakes game of poker in the Middle East, and he's using our troops as chips. I have friends over there right now. If they don't come back alive, their blood is on Bush's hands. Period.
