| THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING

Several have died in Iraq today for reasons we all would dispute about. Arguably our country is being governed, not by congress, but by an arrogant and haughty administration that flinches from acknowledging its faults or shortcomings. Abu Graib and the Bushites tacit approval of Waterboarding have brought forth their own demons. In Iraq while in the care of Americans, Iragi juveniles have been raped for entertainment purposes for the "Emancipators/Americans", and grown men have been emasculated, while their women have been dishonored and molested.
Bush says that the service men and women responsible for this sadistic behavior do "...not represent the America that I know." And which America might that be? The one in which "No Child Left Behind" is screamed from on high but Universal Health Care is vigorously opposed, despite the correlation between good health and the ability to retain curriculum and learn? Oh, and perhaps Mr. President has already forgotten about Abner Louima. Sodimized and tortured by New York in 1997, during the reign of Rudy, who watched as those responsible eluded "justice"
Mr. Bush must have forgotten about the exonerated in The Land Of Lincoln when George Ryan was in office, and the voiceless in Sing-Sing and Angola where 80% of those sent behind those walls never make it out. Mr. President must have forgotten that there were no weapons-of-mass-destruction and Osama bin Laden is still breathing.
