There are improvements!

That's what our fearless leader continues to claim in his press conferences when the issue of Iraq comes up.

But according to the Iraqi people the story appears to be very different.

One of the more glaringly obscured fact in this misadventure is the number of Iraqis who have fled their homes and the reasons they had to flee.

The linked story gives you some insight on a story the main news outlets never seem to touch upon.

When you read these peoples stories of their experiences and see what news on Iraq actually reaches the American public you begin to wonder just what improvements ol' GW is referring to.. I'd like to hear them.

Do they out weigh the ongoing carnage enough to warrant our contiued presence there?

Showdown!

The Dems are sticking to their guns to recall the troops.

But Bush says the Washington politicians shouldn't dictate how to fight the war, they should leave that to the men in uniform.. but wait a cotton pickin' minute there George!...

When and where did Paul Wolfowitz and Donald Rumsfeld get their combat experience what branch of the service were they in? Weren't they the ones that came up with the strategy for the invasion of Iraq?

And didn't one of them say that the Iraqi oil sales would pay for the war and rebuilding? Why are the american tax payers footing the bill to finance this fiasco you and your school chums got us into?

How long did they serve?

Where did you get your military expertise?

Weren't they both part of the political machine?

Aren't you?

I'm just curious as to the reasoning behind all the decision to remain entangled in an increasingly bitter conflict when it's clear that there will be no victory... no 'Mission Accomplished' any time in the next decade.
