President Bush is scheduled to give a speech Wednesday at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md., on the fight against terrorism. Rather than rely again on platitudes and vague vows about staying the course, Bush might want to use this suggested speech written by James Q. Wilson and published in The Wall Street Journal. Here is how it begins: "My fellow Americans: We are winning, and winning decisively, in Iraq and the Middle East." It then lists the successes in Iraq (yes, there have been quite a few)and why the future is hopeful.

James Q. Wilson and John Q. Public seem at great odds.
But then again the WSJ will be the WSJ and we all know what that means.
U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md. will hear a speech from a Israeli Zionist Likud stooge, George W. Bush, written by those who have the American People and their constitutional Government occupied and under siege. The dark forces inside PNCA, a pseudo-intellectual group of modern-day Nazis, energized by bewildered evangelicals and assorted power grazed riffraff is on a quest of world dominance. They are deadly serious.
Their current project: An Iraqi civilian murdering spree under the pretenses of liberation. 70% of the American People want George W. Bush to pack-up his evil alliance and stop what he’s doing, but this undeceiving current occupant of the Presidency of the United States does not have the intellectual capacity to understand what is being done to him, or the country he is suppose to be representing.
Bush, this “born-again religious nutcase” thinks he is on a “mission from God.” That should be a joke, but instead has already cost the lives and limbs of over 23,000 American soldiers and the slaughter of several hundred thousand Iraqi civilians.
The speech, endorsed by the Zionists on the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal, has been carefully crafted to stall for time, rather than exact the will of the People of the United States.
Here is a quote from the so-called Secretary of State of the United States, { in fact a sold-out Zionist flunky }: “Rice said the potential withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq would depend on the wishes of the {Iraqi puppet} government to be elected next month and the Iraqis’ ability to provide order.”

Israeli operatives, working as a so-called “Lobby” have bribed members of congress to appropriate money for their own bribes. A clever trick, but nonetheless damaging to the United States.
The American People should hold the Republican Party responsible to clean it’s own house as well as those democrats so involved should also be so tasked.
Winning decisively? Well, we’re killing lots of people, and getting a lot of our people killed, so I suppose it’s a success, as wars go, but winning? Nobody is going to win this war!
Can you believe this crap?
“Here is a quote from the so-called Secretary of State of the United States, { in fact a sold-out Zionist flunky }: “Rice said the potential withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq would depend on the wishes of the {Iraqi puppet} government to be elected next month and the Iraqis’ ability to provide order.”
It doesn’t matter what the American People want? Just the puppet Government Bushco installed?
Since when do the American not have they’re say in matters of the life and death of their sons and daughters?
Can you believe this these things called “Bush and Rice” are happening?
As the American Peope have come to understand the truth about what is taking place, they have made a decision.
Who in the hell do these people think they are?
Who do they think they’re working for?
Clearly, Bush is trying to sell an idea that the American have come to reflectively reject. So who is Bush so beholding to that he can’t implement the will of the American People?
A small group of Zionists and PNAC’ers want to keep this war going, and expand it to Lebanon and Syria, then Iran. As the American People learned about the true intent of this war, they have asked that it be stopped. So why doesn’t Bush or the congress stopped it, as they have been asked to do?
Why does Bush keep on trying to sell killing spree, knowing the American want nothing to do with it?
Since when does an American President thwart the will of the American People in favor of greedy plan which hurts America? Drives us into bankruptcy, kills our sons and daughters, and places America in a position of ridicule in front of the entire world?
And places America directly in the line of fire from a retaliatory attack from the very people we have been murdering. Why is he doing that?
“Quite of few” successes? Uh, right, Phillip.
Let’s see:
We successfully overthrew the regime of Saddam Hussein.
We successfully plundered the nation’s oil, producing long gas lines, while letting the basic infrastructure (water, electricity, etc.) go to hell.
We successfully allowed no-bid contractors to work on rarely-completed projects for ridiculously inflated sums, while their private security armies run rampant with no oversight or accountability.
We successfully “de-Baath”-ifized the government, throwing out of work of a huge portion of the populace which had as much to do with Saddam Hussein as the rank-and-file Nazis had to do with Hitler.
We’ve successfully allowed a nation that we’ve occupied for nearly three years to descend into chaos and anarchy, with no end in sight.
We’ve successfully managed to kill 2000+ plus of our own soldiers, wounding thousands more, and killed and wounded countless Iraqi civilians (not including the regular Bombing of the Day).
We’ve successfully managed to hand control of Iraq from one inept puppet government to another, starting with U.S. officials, a CIA stooge, then finally the latest unelected “leader.”
Through an ongoing heavy-handed, undemocratic occupation, house searches, lethal roadblocks, appallingly random arrests, kidnapping, torture, humiliation, general disrespect, and just the fact of occupation, we’ve successfully allowed the fractious Iraqi people to reach a consensus: WE SUCK.
We successfully held an election which was boycotted by nearly all Sunnis.
With U.S. officials heavily involved, we successfully approved a Constitution that makes being an Iraqi Sunni difficult, a woman unbearable, and a Christian, Jew or atheist all but impossible. According the the Constitution, in the new Iraq, you will have rights except when you don’t.
We have, in all likelihood, successfully founded Iran’s closest strategic ally, assuming it doesn’t descend into a long, bloody, successful civil war, as it looks like it will no matter what we do.
But you were saying, Phillip?
Rage
Best post of the day.
You nailed it.
Hey come on guys, we painted some schools and handed out some candy. What do you want?
You’re right, I forgot.
To the Eagle Editors:I don’t think “Ed” has any concept of what the will of the people is, his sick hatred is so vile “the people” would be offend to think he is speaking for them or anyone. This blog has become his personal cesspool to spew his twisted crap. It’s lost any objectivity and interest to rational people. I don’t see any reason to bother to read it any more.
I guess I am no longer one of the rational people. Ed makes more sense then any of the excuses that Bush has given. And may be more fact basiced than the intel that Bush used.
Get It,Ed may be nutz, but he has his moments of insane brilliance, and he’s OUR nut. He’s been here since the beginning and most of us would miss him if he were gone. The Jew bashing gets old, but we all have our little idiosyncracies and that’s just Ed. Even though he pisses me off sometimes, he’s someone I’d be glad to crack a beer with.
You on the other hand, are a mean-spirited little troll and we won’t remember you 5 minutes after you’re gone.
Don’t let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya.

I loved this, Chenney in his speech yesterday said. Even if the aligations that the president lied are true. It would harm the troops to say it.
Thanks for y’all defending me.
Writerdog
Cheney is trying to put us on a guilt-trip for opposing the war while he is killing soldiers and Iraqis with impunity.
I said that they would do or say anything to buy more time, even thewart the will of the American People and that’s just what they’re doing.
Their “plan” does not call for ending this never-ending slaughter of both soldiers and civilians, and they’re incresing our risk to be attacked here at home.
They have the gall to ask Iran for help { I’ll link to it in a minute }.
Sick.

QUOTATION OF THE DAY
“I want to defeat the terrorists. And I want our troops to come home, but I don’t want them to come home without having achieved victory. “PRESIDENT BUSHNotice how Bush has gone back from “insurgents” to “terrorists” in order to try to justify the killing of more Iraqis and US soldiers.
What victory? And for whom?
The so-called “war on terrorism” is a farce.
US envoy seeks talks with Iraq rebels…..Asks Iran for help

Note: Now they’re “rebels” { Does Bush have no shame? }
I posted this to a yahoo board in responce to the gushing support of Bush. when I need a good laugh I haunt there.Re: AMERICA SUPPORTS GOP VALUESby: deere_one (M/Smallville Ks.) 11/30/05 06:35 amMsg: 314867 of 314873I agree, Bush will stand up to any country!Except for Israel who tells him where to set, what to eat and when he and his wife can have sex. We will pull out only when it pleases Israel so shut up Americans
P.S. I am as truthful as I can be here. But on those board the true has nothing to do with the subject matter.
Bush is nothing more than a puppet.
Karl Rove is busy painting a picture of a “victory” where no “Victory” can possibly exist.
Karl’s ploy is to suggest that we are robbing the troops of their “victory” without having to define it.
Karl can’t define a “victory” because no definition is possible, other than murdering all the Iraqi People { over 1 billion }.
The only “jobs” being offered to Iraqis is pitting them against one another. Karl wants a civil war only under his direction, and for us to allow that to happen means we must endorse a never-ending murdering spree. A controlled extermination of the Arab world. If they attack the United States in that process, and they will, then that’s fine with Karl, as that gives him even more fuel for more killing, which is the only point of this so-called “war.”
I know that y’all don’t like this, but it all comes back to that map of “greater Israel” which Bush gave to Ariel Sharon. That map shows Israel as stretching all the way from the Nile River in Egypt to the Euphrates River in Iraq.
That’s why they’re so adamant about staying on this murdering spree.
They actually need the Arabs to attack America so as to allow “Homeland Security to swing into shredding what’s left of our constitution. That’s why the “Patriotic Act” stands ready to cancel all of our constitutional guarantees, under the farce of protecting us.
The way to end this war is to make friends with the Arabs by addressing their legitimate complaints. But that means that Israel would have to give-up its quest for world conquest.
Our Troops Must StayAmerica can’t abandon 27 million Iraqis to 10,000 terrorists.
BY JOE LIEBERMANTuesday, November 29, 2005 12:01 a.m. EST
Note from Ed: “Senator Joe Lieberman { Israel can do no wrong } doesn’t want to abandon 27 million Iraqis while they’re still alive.”

Rage, thank you, well said.
XXX, hehehe, good one.
It seems like the right-wingers don’t have so much to say about the war these days.
It’d be interesting to go back to the WSJ in 1970 and revist the editorials of how we’re turning things around in Southeast Asia.
Still waiting for him to say, “Guilty, Your Honor.”
Ed,
I agree with the basics of your statements and arguments, but there’s still one thing that I, personally, haven’t been able to make sense of. If, indeed, the U.S. administration is being led by Sharon and the Zionists, how does the Bush family’s relationship with the Saudi Royal Family fit in?
Great question RD.I’m sure we’ll get an explanition.Could the King be a covert zionist pig?Wouldn’t it be a great story if it were true?
XXX
“moments of insane brilliance”
XXX, A wordsmith are you, who so strikes the hot iron into that ever special glimpse of such fine art.
Me thanks, Ed
Come on Ed, I’ll give up being a filthy mouthed sarcastic bastard for a little while if you’ll seriously address RD’s question about the Bush’s extended Royal Family.Please? Pretty please with the Gaza Strip on top?Sorry, I’m backsliding already.
Rd
I’m not aware of any improprieties, as your question seems to suggest. It usually takes about 24 hrs. for my friends in Saudi Arabia to answer me. I will copy that query to them, then wait.
Few things in this life are certain. One is that their answer will not contain any deception.
Tracy
I never doubted you. I fenced with you. Know the difference.
All smart ass comments aside, I’ll look for your comments on whatever input you get from the middle east.Thanks.
Tracy, there are some very interesting blogs out of the middle east, and you can find them on google. May I suggest Raed in the Middle?http://raedinthemiddle.blogspot.com/Check it out to see how Iraqis feel about the war. It’s also a window into the daily lives of the people we’re “saving”.
Thank you Mr. triple, I’ll check it out tommorrow.That’s good for now, think I better go watch the dog take a crap and wind down for now. When I was a bit younger I’d get home at 5am, but now I get up about then.
Ed, the impropriety I see is the playing of one against the other. Maybe that’s just a part of world politics I can’t hang my hat on. Or maybe it isn’t even that. But if I had “friends” like these, I think I’d slit my wrists. Sorry. Wish I could make sense of my thoughts and confusion. Thanks for offering to check.
