  Reasons why we need to support Kerry, and not just get rid of Bush, part III is a series ; -Kerry is the only viable opponent. He's what there is. Deal. (edited to add - He urlLink gives a shit about your voting rights.
) Reasons why you should be possessed with an insane desire for vengence at the way we've been punked by Team Bush; -According to urlLink The Writing on the Latrine Walls , William Rivers Pitt, the Project for a New American Century had urlLink plans as early as 2000 to fabricate a premise for war with Iraq. In 2000, the membership was relatively power-less,"...preshensile gnomish powerplayers scuttling back to their right-wing think tanks, after being too crazy even for Bush 1", according to one source. Impressive roster, though. Dick Cheney, Vice President of the United States, former CEO of Halliburton; Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense; Paul Wolfowitz, Deputy Secretary of Defense; Elliot Abrams, National Security Council; John Bolton, Undersecretary for Arms Control and International Security; I. Lewis Libby, Cheney's top National Security assistant.
Reasons why this gang went from Washington footnote to Mordred Impersonators: -Hanging chads, corrupt justices and a ball-less Senate. Stated goals of the 'Project'- "The invasion and occupation of Iraq, for reasons that had nothing to do with Saddam Hussein. The building of several permanent military bases in Iraq, the purpose of which are to telegraph force throughout the region. The takeover by Western petroleum corporations of Iraq's nationalized oil industry. The ultimate destabilization and overthrow of a variety of regimes in the Middle East, friend and foe alike, by military or economic means, or both.
" The headline from the Najaf latrine wall, reported by a wildcat embedded journalist and told to Pitt- -"The troops aren't hunting terrorists or building a country," said the Reuters photographer. "All they do is guard the convoys running north and south. The convoys north are carrying supplies and empty tankers for the oil fields around Mosul and Tikrit.
The convoys south bring back what they pull out of the ground up there. That's where all these kids are getting killed. They get hit with IEDs while guarding these convoys, and all hell breaks loose. " An estimated 50 to 70 % of American casualties, amputations and disfigurements, in addition to deaths,occur on the convoy detail protecting oil for the United Subsidiaries of Halliburton. Quick review- did this group fail in meeting all its goals? 930 Americans and thousands of Iraqis dead.
No weapons of mass destruction. No connection between Al Queda and Saddam. No established democracy. No rebuilt infrastructure. No rose petals in the path of the 'dumb, racist jackasses" handpicked by 'contractors' to shoot at any Iraqi kid or old lady who gets in the way of the oil.
I'd have to give all those a failing grade. One goal is more than met, however. While your wife's job has been shipped offshore, and your son's health insurance has been cut from your policy, and your mother's prescriptions have tripled in cost, Halliburton and its sister company has been counting up the bucks with hands dripping with blood; "According to the Center for Public Integrity, Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown & Root has made $11,475,541,371 in Iraq as of July 1. So that's one PNAC goal checked off the list. " That's not all Iraqi oil money. That's cash coming out of the future of your children and grandchildren to pay for this neo-con fuckaround.
Reasons why this makes me mad, 1) Nobody asked my opinion. 2) I might have other plans for that 11 billion. 3) I would rather be laying in bed with a pile of s'mores reading I, Robot, than feeling driven to write this stuff. Now, there's an ending I could cheer. In the meantime, can't anybody agree to help me to get these losers out of our White House? Even if you have to hold your nose and vote? Don't make me quote Jim Morrison.
