Bush Foolishly Vows to Defend Israel
Bush's stupidity never ceases to amaze me.
Take today, for instance.
Today, Bush made a statement that America would use "military might" to defend our 'strong ally' Israel. Now, nevermind that our strong 'ally' has been caught spying on us at least twice. Never mind that our strong ally attacked the US navy ship Liberty in the Six Day War of 1967 where 34 sailors were killed to hide Israel's activities in the war, an attack that was glossed over by our own government for political reasons. The fact is that American presidents have assiduously avoided overtly pledging to defend Israel for decades. This was part of the regional balancing act necessary to maintain Israel's alliance with our need for Arab oil.
I really can't imagine how pissed off the Sheiks in Saudi Arabia and UAE are right now. And how REALLY pissed off the poor commoners are there, the ones who absolutely hate Israel. The sheiks may be pissed to hear this but want to ignore it, but the populace won't like it and, in case no one's noticed, the autocratic monarchies are all being severely pressured by fundamentalist revolutionary forces. For the Sheiks' sake, Bush would be wise to just SHUT THE HELL UP about this. You stupid little man, don't make them cut back on oil production to spite us!
The man really is a pox on everything he touches.

You Bush haters are all alike. You can't stand that he got elected. I would rather have him there than Flip/Flop Kerry or I invented everything Gore.
Or, to quote a Republican from Texas: I wouldn't vote for Jesus Christ if he were a Democrat.
BTW? I voted Republican on every ticket in every election through 2000. The first time I ever voted for any Democrat was Kerry in '04. Take off your blinders, my friend, and take a look at the world around you.
