electricity, is the driving force of war and of the war mentality
engulfing this country. Unplug the generator and you have no more
output of electricity. Remove Bush from office, sooner through
Impeachment rather than later, through New Elections, and the
generating impulse for all mechanisms of war is not there.

his sorry life, he wants to live up to that name, no matter how many
people die on behalf of his narcissistic, greedy cause. Sadly, he is
living up to that name with the backing of Senators, Republicans and
Democrats alike, who support, through fear, intimidation, or
personal belief, Bush's call for war, his lies, his call for troop
surge, his killings in what now has become his personal meat market
place: Baghdad, Iraq.

the same kind of electricity; I mean anxiety, or fear planting and

surge or amplitude that Bush does. And, I also think that he may not
be as keenly intent on destroying the Constitution of the United
States given to us by our Founding Fathers as Bush and Cheney are.
On the other hand, his greed to become the President of the United
States might push him to pursue the perilous road of further
undermining the Constitution towards achieving his own greedy goal.

Cheney may be the driving force behind Bush's quest for empire but
Bush is the dynamo that keeps on, keeping on, generating the call
for war.

Election 2004 people have followed Bush and so has the MSM. They are
cultish and Bush is their cult leader. Cheney knows that his words
are amplified only through Bush's mouth. He knows that, while he may
be one of the principals in the cult of the People for the New
American Century, he does not have the Je ne sais quoi needed to be
the cult leader. McCain knows, too, that he lacks such a cult leader
quality or characteristic, although he seems to have been working
hard, here lately, to acquire or project just such a quality.

Although, while channel surfing on a recent morning, C-Span 2 was
replaying his speech from New York on the Sate of the Economy which
he had given the day before. I happened to catch the part where he
was saying something akin to, if mistakes have been made, the best
thing to do is to recognize it, admit it, and correct the mistakes
right away!

> He was, no doubt talking about the Economy, I presume, in a State
of the Economy Speech but, what a mouthful of crockshit coming from
someone who refuses to see his own mistakes of whatever kind they
may happen to be; someone who equally and arrogantly admits in one
single swoop and a mouthful that he can't see where he has made any
mistakes.

reconstruction as Iraq and New Orleans are.
