Bush Must Go So the World Can Grow

Bush must be impeached because we cannot win in Iraq without the help of our allies, which Bush, in his stupidity, stiff-armed when they tried to help us after 9/11. The rest of the world sees the obvious that we cannot win in Iraq. It is also obvious they now so loathe Bush that as long as he is in the White House, no help is forthcoming. The so-called Coalition of the Willing is now down to a one country coalition (?) now that Great Britain is withdrawing.

We cannot win in Iraq with less than 500,000 troops, a 20 to 1,000 ratio of troop to Iraqi population. Our entire military is 700,000, and we are still fighting in Afghanistan. The winning troop ratio is an impossibility for us to achieve.

Paul Krugman suggests if we pull out of Iraq and redeploy troops to Afghanistan, we may at least achieve victory there. If we stay in Iraq, the greatest military power the world has ever seen will lose both wars. Winning is not an option in Iraq and remaining there does nothing but guarantee the deaths of more American troops for no purpose whatsoever. We have already lost 2,800 Americans, 701,000 Iraqis and Afghans with 1.3 million wounded; Bush spends 3 billion dollars a week for the futile Iraq fiasco.

Only American blood will continue to be shed for Bush’s arrogant stupidity and stubbornness. At least the House must go to Democrats so impeachment can begin to save thousands more lives.

Bush must go so the world can grow.
