Yesterday, George W. Bush gave a speech to promote his Iraq War supplemental appropriations. He needs more money with which to kill more innocent Iraqi civilians and torture "terror suspects". After again leading into a discussion of Iraq by mentioning 9/11, which Iraq had nothing to do with, Bush indicated that he will not negotiate with "the Democrats" who want to tie the new spending to a withdrawal timetable. (Never mind the fact that a lot of Republicans are also calling for a withdrawal plan.)
He said that we must remember 9/11, and therefore give him a blank check with which to further destroy Iraq. I guess it makes sense to him, if not to anyone else.
If Congress lets him get away with this, we'll no longer be living in a democracy but rather a dictatorship.
