Bush is “Confident Democracy Will Prevail In Iraq”

That’s odd. What rational person could think that? The New York Times has a headline today saying, “Fighting on is the only option, Americans Say”. That’s also odd. How many of America’s 297 million were interviewed? The article doesn’t divulge exactly how many people Kirk Johnson interviewed to form his opinion about what Americans are saying. But Johnson said, “Americans across the country expressed anguish.” He fleshed out his view that Americans are anguished by saying, “But it was the question of where the nation should go from here that produced the biggest sigh from Dallas Spear, an oil and gas industry worker from Denver.” “’I would never have gone there from the beginning, but that's beside the point now,’ Mr. Spear said, his jaw clenched. ‘We upset the apple cart and now there's pretty much no choice. We have to proceed.’ Mr. Spear's sentiment was echoed in interviews in shopping malls, offices, sidewalks and homes on a day when the news from Iraq was bleak,” Johnson said. Then Johnson quotes a man named Charlie Eubanks who says we’ve got to hang in and get the job done. A few more quotes from a few more anguished, sighing, clenched folks, and Johnson reports that Americans say our only option is to stay in Iraq. For some unfathomable reason, known only to the editors of the New York Times, the paper has decided to noise the opinion of a few people and call it “The Public”. Well, I too have spoken to The Public. From Philadelphia to LA. And my anguished, sighing clenched folks, in banks, restaurants, a dentist office, sidewalks and homes feel that a good outcome in Iraq is impossible, that the prospects for democracy are so bleak as to be nonexistent, that enough is enough, and that we should get out of Iraq now, forthwith, immediately. I have even asked Mr. Ratfucker and Mr. Ratfucker says, “We have a President who would serve himself and the nation better were he committed to a mental institution. The man is delusional and possibly a paranoid schizophrenic. The only reason the White House allows him to roam about is that they need a spokesperson for their insane fascistic views.” Mr. Ratfucker went on to say that he feels anguished, unsettled, devastated, dispirited, unhappy and angry about America’s involvement in Iraq. He sighed when he said that our only option is to get out as soon as possible. Mr. Ratfucker also said he is confident only that chaos will prevail in Iraq for the foreseeable future. And he feels that anyone feeling confident about President Bush, the White House, the Pentagon, the war in Iraq, or that Condoleeza Rice should even be allowed to be a secretary for the Secretary of State, is either insane or worse, a writer for the New York Times. So...who are you going to believe, the President of the United States who is a lying insane person and Kirk Johnson, a member of the unreliable MSM, or Mr. Ratfucker and me?
