 Bush Presidential Bus Going Over The Cliff It has become painfully obvious that W. Bush is no more than a neocon puppet dancing on the end of strings. There is no other rational explanation available for why a president would doggedly pursue expansion of the Iraq war against strong public opinion (new poll: 70% against troop increase), a solid majority in Congress, the wishes of the Iraqi government (In Baghdad, Bush Policy Is Met With Resentment), and his own military. Even staunch Republican Col. Oliver North said on Fox that "on his recent trip to Baghdad 'nearly all' U.S. troops opposed escalating the war in Iraq. They told North, 'We don't need more American troops; we need more Iraqi troops.'" Link to story and clip. Bush's approval rating now stands at 32%, approaching Nixonian levels. If the Democrats running Congress thought they could work with Bush, they're mistaken. The guy is determined not only to continue his middle east war but expand it. Iran will be bombed extensively before Bush leaves office. Congress needs to pull the gloves off and gird itself for a bare knuckles brawl. Please lord, let them have the stomach for it. 01/12/2007.
