The Fly
Bushie likes to keep us preoccupied with his "war" on Afghanistan, er Iraq, er...terrorism because by doing so it keeps the focus off his god-awful train wreck of an domestic agenda and his approval numbers intact. As long as Bushie keeps the blinders on the American public it only stands to reason his popularity will remain high. But trust me...eventually this facade of a "war" will expose itself to the American electorate and the focus will return to the core issues facing our country in the future. Bush and his honchos clearly fear this...they can't win on the issues 2 years from now...so it wouldn't come as a complete shock to me that sometime in the fall/winter of 2003 or early spring of 2004 Bushie launches an attack on Iraq, promoting it as a "preemptive strike" against "the evil doers".
The bottom line is that the Bush family seems to latch on to "war" whenever they can in order to take the focus off their pathetic crippling of the American economy, environment, and first amendment rights. They would have us believe that this "war" is so important that nothing else really matters-not the economy, not the enviroment, etc. Just ridiculous. Yes, feeling safe on the streets of America is important-but not at the cost of crippling our economy with the failed economic policies of the Reagan and Bush Sr administrations.
So...Bush will learn that ultimately the American electorate is smarter than he thinks. It IS about the economy at the end of the day...and the trickle down economics of this administration will guarantee a Bush defeat in November of '04.
