So the 8 o’clock news on TV said Bush will let more Iraqi refugees into the US. Amusing.
He’s really fucking things up over there (Iraq). At least he’s taking some responsibility for it and giving some of the people who suffered the most because of his fuck-up a chance for better lives. If you consider the USA a good place to life. Well it’s better than Iraq in any case, the chances of getting blown up while going to a mall is much lower in the US. And the chances of getting shot? Ask Michael Moore.
But so much for the argument “We’re fighting them over there, so we don’t have to fight them over here.”. OK, that’s not fair, refugees aren’t terrorists, but try explaining that to Alabamans. And I can imagine a small percentage of the refugees (7000 refugees in the US is also just a very small percentage of the people suffering because of the war) are/will be disgruntled with his policies. Or with the US “civilization”, not all of whom – I imagine – would be welcoming these victims of circumstances caused by their unpopular president. Imagine the irony if one of those refugees end up blowing himself up, right in the middle of a US shopping mall.
Not that I’m saying the US is better off not taking any refugees (I don’t care, it’s not my country), but they having to do this is really just evidence of how badly Bush is managing the situation. A situation he created himself, foolishly thinking he would be able to handle it. I wonder if he thinks he’ll still be able to handle it. I guess so, with this “surge” that’s going to solve all the problems nonsense. No one besides him believes it’s going to work, too bad no one’s asking the question “So what if it doesn’t work? What are your plans then, sirrah?”
And now they (Bush and Cheney) are rattling the sabers against Iran. I wonder WTF their strategy is. Attack a new target so people would forget about the previous catastrophe (like Afghanisthan)? I have a feeling they’re just starting war after war to please their missiles-and-jet-fighter-manufacturing friends.
What a really, really, fucked up guy.
