Bush-Pakistan-war on terror
[Read the article: Pakistan turns scary for Bush's war on terror]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]What War on Terror? Did that not stop at Tora Bora, Afghanistan where Bin Laden supposedly was with AQ and the USA advancing and Pakistan forces on the other side of the border blocking any retreat? Were Special Forces pulled out of the fight and sent to Kuwait for the invasion of Iraq where there were no WMD's and no AQ? Pakistan has a very large Army (CIA World Fact Book) and NATO and the USA have a sizeable presence in Afghanistan. I find it hard to believe the combined forces cannot destroy the Taleban and the remnants of AQ. I firmly believe that OBL and AAZ are dead or captured and are being kept alive figuratively to keep the phony war on terror going as a gravy train for a select few. Was the invasion of Iraq copied from McArthur's 'hit them where the aren't'? Prove to the citizens of the USA, and the world that these murderous clowns are still alive!

Bombastic Political Rhetoric.
[Read the article: Bomb, bomb Iran?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The bombastic political rhetoric dribbling from the mouths of the Bush/Cheney mis-administration and supported by the goose stepping, rubber stamping GOP; the RNC and all of it's brown shirt slithering minions--poddle journalist's included, that is aimed at Iran is not the heart of the message. The real message is FEAR like a dagger aimed at the heart/consciousness of the American citizenry. They are using FEAR to drive the sheep into the arms of the strong FATHER figure SAVIOUR.

Phony War On Terror
[Read the article: Taking stock of the war on terror]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I would be hard put to match the comments on this article. Bush's War as depicted on Frontline states it all. When the passion of greed rules, it never rules wisely. We see ego greed, the crony greed, and the greed well depicted by the sub-prime mortgage fraud. The results, whether Iraq or the economy, has been a disaster. At the present time that greed is still being rewarded. I thought we had hit bottom, but the same people that created these problems want to accelerate the race to the bottom-Amazing.

Sub-priming the Big Lie!
[Read the article: Interview with Aaron Brown on NYT "military analyst" story]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Amazing! Does not anyone have a vision of the bigger picture for the USA and for this Earth? Chopping up the Big Lie and repackaging it to journalist's, analyst's, Wall Street, and to the American people is coming back to bite, and bite hard. Restore the Truth to America, so we can go on down the road-onward and upward, but not backwards. Has a Lie ever built anything? A family? A community? A state?

Spinning SuccessLleads to Failure
[Read the article: Audit shows more problems with Iraqi security forces]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The Bush/Cheney cabal, the GOP, the RNC, the MSM poodles, and Corporate poodles have been spinning their elusive success in Iraq from March 19--2003 to the present. They invaded Iraq with no real plan and came up with the adhoc Plan A that never changed until the summer of 2006 when sub-plan (a) was introduced--the surge. The temporary increase of the troops was to solve the problem and give the Iraqi government time to come together-they have not--there has been no other plan. We are spending $343,000,000 per day in Iraq and have spent $20,000,000,000 for training the Iraqi forces--some Sunni, predominately Shiite, and the Kurds. The USA is no better off there now than we were in the beginning. The USA cannot make the three basic groups in Iraq love each other. This war may be a gravy train for a few but the country and it's image in the world is continually declining. Spin all they want but that does not change the facts in Iraq. A mature adult human being faces up to the facts and accepts them, makes changes and moves on.

Who is killing US?
[Read the article: Poison ice]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]One way or the other the Fascist's of the world will kill all of us, either through benign neglect or physically. All of them should be given a psychological test and then shipped to a Gulag in the deserts of the world. There they should remain until they die off. Then we can continue on building a better world-not destroying same.

The Fascist Christian.
[Read the article: Psycho Christians and the media]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Not all Christians are Fascist but there are a number of their pseudo leaders who are Fascist. Their message of hatred and demagoguery is very similar to the message the Nazi's used on the German people. They painted the Jews as rats and vermin with vastly distorted facts, images and lies. What the Fascist demagogue does is to unfreeze the mind of the faithful flock and the re-freeze their minds by getting them to accept his personal word as the word of God. Pseudo pastors such as Hagee, Robertson, and the deceased Jerry Falwell used basically the same tactics to brain-wash the flock so they could blindly lead them to the polls to deliver their vote for the Fuhrer. These phony pastors are nothing more than political operatives for the Fascist Party of America. The traditional Republican party does not exist any more!

beneficiaries of the Cuban Embargo
[Read the article: One more good reason to lift the embargo on Cuba]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Who has benefited the most from the Cuban embargo? The major beneficiaries have been Castro and right wing politicians in the Cuban American community. Almost every election Castro is verbally bashed by the right wing politicians and the Cuban people rally around Castro. Castro loves it and just smiles and says thank you for radicalizing the Cuban people to support me. The Cuban people do not benefit from the embargo, neither does the Cuban American community. The Cuban American community votes for these right wing demagogues and are then abandoned after the election. Does the American farmer and the business community benefit from the embargo? No, is the answer because other countries fill the gap and reap the rewards from doing business with Cuba.

Is America the land of the free and the home of the brave?
[Read the article: American credibility on trial]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Approximately 25% of those polled still support the Fascist Criminal Enterprise of cheney/bush, probably another 20% straddle the fence, possibly 40-45% do not support the almost Nazi mis-administration, and another 10-15% would love to storm the ramparts and remove the Fascist Criminals from power. Has most of America become the "Living Dead"?
