George W. Bush announces: read my lips, I am going to betray the troops

For the upteenth time George W. Bush has announced his traitorous message to the American people. While talking on the White House South Lawn today (April 24, 2007) George Bush says he will veto funding for the troops in Iraq!

As the Pentagon does not work potential war-making into its annual budget, Congress is forced to pass emergency spending bills during times of crisis. But, the President of the United States of America, the Commander-and-Chief, states that he will veto such funding.

Congress is poised to pass a bill that will give every penny of the funding that initially the President said he wanted. Now, however, it’s not good enough. George Bush (43) has determined he will take a political stand on the issue. Therefore, he has decided to leave the American troops stationed in Iraq hung out to dry.

As true patriots Congress has determined it will give the troops the money. Yet, the conservatives now want to politicize the funding. They have done so in order to try to break the back of the democratically-elected Congress. The next step is to cow the Congress into be no more than a rubber stamp for the President. (why do we have elections at all?)

It is not enough that he has put them in harms way for Weapons of Mass Destruction that turned out not only to be incorrect but lies! And, when somebody called them out on it they committed treason by outing a CIA agent to keep the lies from coming out! Then those who were wounded in their defense of their bad policy were sent back to slums for rehab! (Proving troops to be nothing but pawns protecting the king) Never mind the thousands they allowed to die in New Orleans while they argued over "chain of command!" They were not even pawns they just don't "care about black people." (Mike Meyers cringes.) To make everybody feel better, the Administration has declared “when the Iraqis stand up, we’ll stand down!” Yet, they determined to slip into the news that they have stopped training the Iraqi Army (during the national mourning of the Virginia Tech tragedy.) Just 32 more pawns in their political game!

Now they have decided to cut off funding for the troops. Again and again the conservatives have told us they were patriotic and liberals were treasonous. (You know like Pinochet used to say). Now they are willing to deny troops in the field adequate funding. While it may not be treason to the letter of the law I’m sure anyone who has loved ones over there will see that the conservative movement has decided they no longer love America (if they ever did)!
