A message from Congressman Dennis Kucinich. July 22 2008
http://kucinich.us/
Party: Democratic
Current Office: Congress

This year marks my 40th year of involvement in civic life. I have served as a member of the Cleveland City Council, Clerk of the Cleveland Municipal Courts, and Mayor of the City of Cleveland. I have been an Ohio State Senator and am now in my sixth term as a Member of the United States Congress. Having served at local, state and federal levels, in legislative, executive and "quasi" judicial branches, I have one of the broadest backgrounds of anyone in government today. I intend to put my lifetime of experience into my work as the Chairman of the Domestic Policy Subcommittee of Government Oversight, and am running for re-election to Congress.

I welcome your suggestions and ideas as to how we can make our government truly become a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
Dennis

Bush Says He Still Believes Iraq War Was The Fun Thing To Do


WASHINGTON—Despite harsh criticism from both sides of the political aisle, the U.S. populace, and former members of his own administration, President Bush once again defended his 2003 decision to invade Iraq, saying that, in the end, it was the fun thing to do.

"On Sept. 11, 2001, we as a nation faced a difficult decision, an important decision, a decision between what was fun and what was wrong," Bush said during a speech before Pentagon officials Wednesday. "We could have backed down and allowed the terrorists to win. But instead, we stood up to the challenge before us, and we said, 'Bring it on—bring the good times on!'"
"Mark my words," Bush continued. "When the dust settles and the smoke clears, history will look back on the Iraq War as a total blast."
Throughout his speech, Bush remained unapologetic about his commitment to the ongoing mission to live it up in Iraq, repeatedly saying that sacrifices had to be made to ensure the most pleasurable course of action. The president also stated that he would not succumb to those who had pressured him to set a date for withdrawal, insisting that U.S. troops would remain in the region for as long as his administration was enjoying itself.


"Withdrawing from Iraq when we're all having such a fantastic time would only serve to empower those intent on spoiling our fun," Bush said. "And I have to say, right now, we're having a ball."
Bush went on to defend his decision to remove troops from Afghanistan and "bring the party" to Iraq. He maintained that while policing the region wasn't "a bore or anything" it wasn't all that entertaining, either. Furthermore, the president said that had the United States not shifted its focus away from Afghanistan, military forces never would have had the opportunity to kick up their heels in Iraqi cities such as Basra, Baghdad, and Tikrit.
"Tell me 'Shock and Awe' wasn't an absolute riot," a visibly confident Bush said.
Bush maintained that he had no regrets about invading Iraq, and that all he needed to do to know he made the right decision was look at the smiling, happy faces of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Vice President Dick Cheney, and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld.
Following the president's speech, Rice herself lashed out against critics of the war, painting them as "real downers" who wouldn't know how to let their hair down and have fun if their lives depended on it.
"I urge those who have grown tired of this war to lighten up and live a little," Rice said on CBS Evening News, adding that Bush had furthered his commitment to having a rip-roaring time in Iraq with a recent troop surge. "What detractors of this war don't understand is that when it comes to fighting terrorism, there's no harm in letting loose and painting the town red."
While Rice admitted that the Bush Administration could have better planned its exit strategy and more fully equipped troops to deal with the Sunni insurgency, she questioned how much fun that ultimately would have been for U.S. troops.
"The best times are had when there's no preparation in place. When everything is loud and spontaneous and you just throw caution to the wind," Rice said. "Sure, we might have been able to prevent a massive civil war had we taken a few precautions—but come on, where's the joy in that?"
Bush, who claimed he could see America having a great time in Iraq for decades to come, and called the war in the Middle East the most fun the nation has had since Vietnam, agreed with Rice.
Said Bush, "Frankly, if we're not going to enjoy it, why even invade Iraq in the first place?"

What a friggin despot he is


Despotism is a form of government by a single authority, either an individual or tightly knit group, which rules with absolute political power. In its classical form, a despotism is a state where one single person, called a Despot, wields all the power and authority, and everyone else is considered their slave

This does not describe the US form of gov't. It would be much more accurately used to criticize the parliamentary form of gov't, where a PM has absolute power through the exercise of party discipline over a majority of MPs.

in the USA, the President has to contend with two other branches of gov't, the elected representatives in the House and Senate, and the judiciary. Either can render him helpless, and have done so repeatedly.

Mr. bush might wish to be a despot, but the position is far out of his reach.

Unfortunately Dennis Kucinich is considered a bit of a crackpot in the states and will probably not be taken seriously.

Unfortunatly, I don't have any faith this will get any further then another web site on the internet among the trillions. The American public and their politicians haven't done anything about it for years now.... why would they do something about it now?

And I'm pretty sure within the US political system, one guy with some internet petitions isn't going to make any difference against the rest of the system that appears used to the status quo.

It's simply not going to happen, and many politicians said so.... because an impeachment on Bush would also bring down many other politicians who supported him this whole time, so it's pretty well a deadlock between the select few who want some actual justice, and the majority of the corrupt who don't want to lose their fancy high paying jobs.

And on top of that, an impreachment on Bush would only ruin the validity of the "War on Terrorism" and would express to the world that the US was wrong in something..... and the US never makes mistakes.

Did George Bush actually use the word "fun" to describe the war in Iraq? Did he say the war was a "blast"? If he used these words, he should be thrown our on his ear immediately Too many people have died for the world to accept this kind of garbage talk..
