If torturing ‘terrorists’ keeps them off American soil — so be it. I want a president who will protect my family — not another country.

“We face an enemy that respects no borders, respects no uniforms, and certainly has no regard for civilians, especially innocent women and children and the elderly.”
I wonder if the Iraqis felt this way when bombs were dropping on their city!

A vote for John McCain is a vote for Bush IF he could serve a third term. Disabled Veterans will pay the rest of their lives for the lies, that Bush used to sell America and the world on going to war with Iraq. His policies resulted in:
180,000 Iraqi dead with over four million displaced civilians.
4,500+ service personnel dead
30,00 to 100,000+ wounded US service personnel.
50% of the wounded veterans suffer, brain, emotional and psychological damage.
The highest suicide rate of any past military conflict. CBS news reports: “Suicide
Epidemic Among Veterans.” War Veterans are committing suicide after they leave the
battlefield and return home. McCain/Bush, refuse to extend benefits to these veterans.
Thousands of divorces, bankruptcies and interupted careers.
26% of the homeless are veterans with mental problems and destroyed lives.
Hundreds of vets have lost limbs, hearing, memory, sight and have disfiguring burns.
Time magazine 06/16/08 headlines: “The secret weapon of the Military is PROZAC” PROZAC is an anti depressant and it contributes to the suicide rate.
A bulletin in a VA Hospital reads: “Help Our Veterans TBI Screenings
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is the “signature injury” of the Iraq/Afghanistan Wars. 63-80% of hospitalized combat-injured veterans suffer brain injury.”
A VA nurse told me that the VA was not prepared to handle such large numbers.
The Bush/McCain policies have:
Ruined our economy to the point where some experts predict a 1929 type DEPRESSION
Reversed many environmental protection gains.
Created hatred and disrespect of the United States in the eyes of the world.
Created failed economic policies resulting in a devalued dollar, and increased oil prices.
Afghanistan not Iraq was a terrorist haven before Bush’s war. Afghanistan was
secured, then neglected. Now both Iraq and Afghanistan are terrorist havens.
Bush’s weapons of mass destruction and mushroom cloud rhetoric deceived us into supporting him when we were emotionally charged up after the 9/11 tragedy. Bush had reliable intelligence that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. “Former Bush press secretary Scott McClellan published a political memoir entitled What Happened: Inside the Bush White House and Washington’s Culture of Deception. He suggested that both President Bush and Vice President Cheney discussed the CIA identity of Valerie Plame prior to leaks to the press as part of their efforts to discredit criticism of their administration by her husband, Joe Wilson, and to continue to mislead the American public about the necessity of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, and that George Bush should have fired former White House strategist Karl Rove for Rove’s own involvement in leaking Plame’s identity.” These facts are easily available.
McCain boasts “we will be in Iraq for one hundred years” and “I will never surrender in Iraq.” The president of Iraq said. “In my opinion, at least from 40,000 to 50,000 American troops can be [withdrawn] by the end of this year.” That assessment differs dramatically from those offered by Bush and US military commanders in Iraq.
Without the cover of the UN Mandate which ends in December of 2008, the continued presence of coalition troops in Iraq would become, in law as in fact, an armed occupation. Studies show that 92 percent of respondent Iraqis consider US forces to be occupiers rather than liberators or peace keepers. THE IRAQI PEOPLE WANT US OUT OF THEIR COUNTRY.
The war has cost tax payers over 528 BILLION DOLLARS, and is increasing daily by 341.4 million dollars and has cost every tax payer $4,681. Bush charged you $4,681 for his war and gave you back $300/$600, he borrowed from China. Future generations will pay for Bush’s excesses.
Thomas Jefferson said that a democracy cannot survive unless the citizens are educated and well informed. Please take his advice. Mister Bill from West Virginia
