You used those famous words to bolster your case for attacking Iraq, even after Joseph Wilson 4th, the ex-Ambassador of Gabon, a 23 year career foreign service officer and ambassador,  found no evidence that supported your assertion about Iraq&rsquo;s intention to buy yellowcake.


...Wilson  wrote his famous opinion article in the New York Times, &ldquo;What I didn&rsquo;t find in Africa&rdquo; and then Cheney launched a venomous personal attack plan to discredit Wilson which somehow resulted in someone from your administration divulging the identity of Wilson&rsquo;s wife as a covert CIA agent who ironically was working on uncovering weapons of mass destruction in the Mid East.


Shortly afterwards you state that you will fire anyone who participated in outing the CIA agent, but you refuse to fully cooperate during the initial part of the investigation until Fitzgerald is finally assigned as the chief investigator.  ...  After months and months of effort Cheney&rsquo;s chief of staff is found guilty of obstruction of justice and lying to the grand jury and although some of your cabinet members were involved in disclosing Valerie Plame as a covert agent, you didn't fire anybody.


...Your favorite number 16 comes into play again  as your new bush-disaster involves a 16 day gap in e-mails which were sent to congressional investigators after they requested e-mail records between the Justice Department and your White House concerning the firing of seven U.S. attorneys last year. 


...She was fired shortly after she informed Washington about some search warrants in a Republican corruption case last year. 


According to an LA Times article, &ldquo;Afterwards, a top Justice Department official in Washington wrote to the White House about a "real problem we have right now with Carol Lam."


Lam had successfully indicted Randy "Duke" Cunningham, the former Republican congressman from Rancho Santa Fe who ultimately pleaded guilty to bribery and income tax evasion.


...Lam was fired because she was investigating Republican politicians in Southern California including a couple of Cunningham&rsquo;s buddies.


...Lam was also investigating another Cunningham buddy, "Dusty" Foggo, a top CIA official who suddenly resigned May 8. 


...Don't look now but &ldquo;Gonzo-gate&rdquo; has the same earmarks as the State of the Union &ldquo;16 word fiasco.&rdquo;    The final story to that tale of presidential hubris and illegal activity has not been totally flushed out yet.   Scotter was the only one to pay the price for that one, but boy did it hurt you and the Republican party. 


Your offer to allow Rove and Miers to talk to the congressional investigating committee as long as it is behind closed doors and not under oath is laughable. 


...You might want to reconsider your ridiculous offer because the USS Bushshit is leaking like a sieve captain.   I would not be surprised to see Gonzo go, but who would replace your tex-mex buddy, the guy who helped you execute a record number of inmates in Texas, the guy who got you out of jury duty where your drunk driving and drug abuse record would be made public before the elections.


This is another juicy story; it is just too good, someone is going to spill their guts and another salvo of charges will no doubt hit the U.SS Bushshit again and again until another of your lackey&rsquo;s screw ups is made public. 


The Democrats, especially the ones running for president, are loving it because they don&rsquo;t have to talk about solving your Iraq disaster as long as your buddies keep screwing up like this.


...This is going to be great theatre; hell this is going to be better than a Paris Hilton sex video but infinitely more obscene for our democracy as you push our government towards a constitutional crisis.

...And she is not even slightly swayed by the deaths of thousands of people that died in her name.


...Why do you allow to remain blindfolded and continue to follow neo-conservative's directions as you try to hit that elusive pinata while some unseen hands keep jerking the prize further and further away?


...After years of reading those damnable facts in the newspapers television programs and on the Internet,  thousands of people have publically protested your policies, and still you remain unfazed. 


You seemed desperate as you pleaded for patience during yesterday's speech on the Iraq war anniversary and yet you continued to try to falsely link your decision to invade Iraq  to 9/11.


To commemorate this fourth anniversary  of the beginning of your ill-fated invasion of Iraq, protesters from around the world took to the streets to show their intense hatred of your Iraq war.    When over a million people protested your original intent to invade Iraq you dismissed them by stating that you would not be swayed by a focus group of dissenters. ...  Anyone who was so cavalier with dissenting American and world opinion back then will not change his mind today although your war has divided our allies and united our enemies. 


Many Bush-war-stalwarts state that 3,217 soldiers cannot die for nothing and are willing to go along with your plan to double down your bet on a loosing hand and keep throwing more American soldier&rsquo;s lives into that hell just to hold off the Democrats from pulling the rug out from under you.  


...The bitter truth is that those 3,217 soldiers and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis died for ever-changing Rove-inspired bumper-sticker slogans and not for the welfare or protection of Americans at home.


Sending more troops into this war without a change in attitude about what you hope to realistically accomplish is not a strategy, it is not gallant; it is murder.


No one knows about your killing rampage as much as the Iraqis, and you will not outlast the Iraqi people who want to kill the Americans who invaded their country and want to steal their resources.   Indeed, your obvious fabrication of reasons for invading a sovereign Mid East nation and the ruinous handling of the Iraqis after the invasion has bitterly divided our nation.   Our allies have fallen by the wayside while our enemies have united and  many nations have become emboldened to counter America's imperial plans for the world. 


Your atrocious performance as our so-called &ldquo;commander in chief&rdquo; your lack of intelligence and the limited american military footprint Rumsfield assigned to this asymmetrical  war seems to have emboldened countries like Iran, Venezuela, Uruguay, Argentina, Sudan, Indonesia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, North Korea, Russia, and China just to name a few, have openly challenged America and sidestep our country as they form strategic alliances and partnerships to counter American influence throughout the world.


Allies are repulsed by your hubris while enemies consolidate and refine their methods to attack our soldiers and our nation like a pack of jackals tracking a wounded elephant.


...He ultimately gave way to his opponents wishes after failing to secure any American favors for his support and finally created his own timetable to remove British troops from Iraq.


...cried Ahab to the oarsmen, and the boats darted forward to the attack; but maddened by yesterday's fresh irons that corroded in him,  Moby Dick seemed as though he was possessed by all the angels that fell from heaven."


...I expect your crew of republican congressmen will quietly jump ship as election time rolls in and they leave the SS Bush Jr. to thankfully sink into the muck and mire you created for our country. 


...Transgressions such as breaking the wiretap laws and squashing an NSA  investigation by refusing to provide the investigating attorneys the proper clearance to perform the inquiry, in which he was one of the suspects is a big "No No" in layman's terms.

...If you couldn't find enough uber-loyal bush loyalists to fill the thousands of government positions, you either lowered the standard or bought your way out of it by contracting the jobs out and paid for their loyalty. 


...Besides turning away and eliminating competent advisors you also turned away thousands of badly needed scientists, engineers and other technical workers at our nations borders while you degraded our military, to what many generals called, their breaking point.


The day after we were attacked the neo-cons must have fallen on their knees in thankful praise of their god who delivered unto them an opportunity to make their wettest dream come true, a chance to build a mideast  american colony to watch over our oil fields and support Israel, but your Iraq war posed special problems and opportunities for your neo-cons with their grand plan. 


You had to have enough troops to wage two wars without instituting a draft which would quickly swing public opinion and could bring a halt to the war long before you Cheney and  Gonzalez could institute enough executive powers to resist any potential negative Congressional action.


So you were stuck with lowering the quality of the armed services by decreasing entrance requirements, increasing the age limits , decreasing the amount of family leave, increasing the length and duration of their duty in Iraq and even sending seriously wounded troops with Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) back to the front.


...The result of your acolytes work has been a never ending list of fiascos which stemmed from incompetence, the obstruction of reports, modification of  facts and outright censorship of scientific studies, which has negatively affected everything from the Iraq war, international trade, education , the health of the american people and recovery efforts to disaster area victims. 


...Every government agency; All 1172 government agencies , from Accounting and Auditing Policy Committee (AAPC) to the Yucca Mountain Site Characterization Project (YMSCP) are suspect of being infected with the Bush bacteria  (subscription required) after all the time you have had in office.


...According to the Washington Post article at the time, "Two people who sought jobs with the U.S. occupation authority said they were even asked their views on Roe v. 

...Meanwhile Parsons, Bechtel and the Halliburton subsidiary KBR. took in billions of dollars in no-bid contracts,for projects most of which were judged to be "substandard with construction deficiencies and other serious problems."


...Is it any wonder that according to a CNN poll from a few months ago, 78 percent of americans believe the government is broken and have very little faith in our country's leaders?


...The incompetence is only part of your problem, you have reduced the number of government workers and backfilled many critical positions with contractors who are driven by profit motives rather than doing what is right for the nation.


...Earlier this month it was reported that the GSA was short of people to process cases of incompetence by federal contractors so they hired more contractors to help them out!


...One would think that in such a desperate time we would pull out all the stops and get the best people we can to help our armed services and american  companies, but alas that is not the Bush-way.


...Even after you contracted out thousands of jobs that the military used to perform, there are still not enough trained soldiers in the pipeline to cover the dead and wounded your war created, much less your surge and the additional logistical support required.


According to a recent article from The Guardian, "the British has 9000 troops on the ground in Iraq but private military contractors account for about 10,000 armed troops.  

...Torturing suspects in Abu Gharib, Guantanimo and in other vacation spots around the world courtesy of extraordinary renditions didn't apply to the American military, so military contractors are even less accountable, except to the people who sign their checks, his royal highness, George W. 

...It was a remarkable job but you  couldn't have done it without Republican whips like Tom Delay,  Pat Roberts and Bill Frist in Congress for rubber-stamping all your bills and squelching all oversight. 

...You have infected our democracy with bacteria so vile it will take an intense infusion of sunlight, of transparency to kill off the germs which have been introduced into the U.S. government and have multiplied in the darkness provided by Vice President, Dick Cheney. 


...You say you are not concerned about what people say about you today and that you will leave it to history to decide your visionary Bush doctrine  greatness of your vision for America  let me save you the suspense.

You managed to successfully get reelected despite your vice president's attempt to discredit a war critic by disclosing the name of a covert CIA spy. 


As everyone now knows Libby was proven guilty, but the legal stalling process  accomplished its purposes; to obstruct the investigation, protect Karl Rove, the Vice-president, and delay the trial until well after the 2004 Presidential elections. 


You knew the odds of loosing Libby to a bulldog like Fitzgerald was pretty high.   But, Scooter was a lamb you were willing to sacrifice.   Hell, it was a no-brainer, and the loyal soldier took the hit.   Perhaps you told him that he would be well rewarded for his sacrifice.  

...The right-wing spin machine will flip the event and continue to make Bush-loyalists feel good about themselves and they will continue to believe that up is down, and the crime of lying to prosecutors is not a big deal. 


The polls were not an issue because you can't go down much further than 33 per cent approval ratings unless Limbaugh got laryngitis and the Fox channel suddenly went off the air.   And lord knows Cheney never cared about the polls or democracy for that matter, so he could continue to lie about everything he wanted to.


You got to hand it to Fitzgerald though, he had to accumulate evidence organize facts, issue indictments and make the case with one hand tied behind his back.    He had to follow the law without political bias; while his opponents, your administration, didn't have to follow those rules. 


The only question in my mind is if his pardon was going to be wrapped in a Medal of Freedom?


...On behalf of President Bush, thank you for your correspondence.


...The President is committed to continuing our economic progress,


defending our freedom, and upholding our Nation's deepest values.
