Our Troops deserve better don't they?

President Bush and his Administration built Saddam Hussein to appear more of a threat than he actually was, by saying things like... "before he becomes an imminent threat", "mushroom clouds", "supporting terrorists", "shopping for uranium in Niger", etc., etc.

To date, we’ve had more than 2,300 American troops killed in Iraq. More than 17,000 others injured, many losing arms, legs, or their sight! These numbers climb daily.

Saddam Hussein had to be dealt with at some point, no doubt. The problem is the way the Bush Administration sold it, executed it and timed it. That was all done poorly, at best.

The Bush Administration has EXPLOITED 9/11, using selective intelligence, stacked allegations and fear tactics on a nation that had been viciously attacked the year prior!

Where's the OUTRAGE?

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush said Tuesday that American forces will remain in Iraq for years and it will be up to a future president to decide when to bring them all home. But defying critics and plunging polls, he declared, "I'm optimistic we'll succeed. If not, I'd pull our troops out."

Of course there will be US troops in Iraq for years, that was part of the reason for going in the first place. To maintain a US presence in the region. Actually, the talks going on with Iran right now deal with the positioning of about forty thousand US troops in the western region of Iraq so, unless you don't pick up newspapers fail to see the newsworthyness of this.
