Herr Bush's delusions--victory in Iraq

Anyone listening to Herr Bush's speech at the Pentagon on year 5 of his invasion of Iraq, will know that this lame duck has lost touch with reality. He spoke at the Pentagon because he had a captive audience; had he spoken anywhere else in the US, he would'v had to face protesters. Although the economy has eclipsed the war as centrepiece in the presidential elections, few speak of the two as cause and effect. Everyone knows but few say that Herr Bush lied his country into war. His Adam's rib of a vice president Dick Cheney will return from a tour of the Middle East to tell his master that the mission in Iraq has been accomplished time and time again, no matter that Iraqi's have died in the millions, millions more have been displanced or taken the road to exile, and that almost 4000 young Americans have perished for a dumb, unnecessary war to stroke Herr Bush's ego.
As the economy sinks into deep depression and the war rages on and the national debt balloons into the trillions of dollars and the American people but Herr Bush's class and class of war profiteers who have grown fat and richer...Herr Bush's proven an failed leader. And may he rot for that
