No One Else

The Iraqis demand that the American soldiers go home. The majority of Americans pray for American soldiers to come home. Nearly all U.S. soldiers stationed in Iraq desperately want to go home. 99% of the the world insists that American soldiers go home. So, who wants American soldiers to remain in Iraq? Only the Bush Administration and the no-bid contractors they hired. That's it. No one else. Then for whom are our young soldiers, our sons and daughters, getting slaughtered and maimed? Not for Iraqis. Not for Americans. Not for the Army. Not for the rest of the world. Only for The Bush Administration and the no-bid contractors they hired. That's it. No one else. Do the rest of us really care enough to get off our lazy, liberal asses and do something about it? Apparently not.

Shame on all of us.
