Press release from Central Ohio chapter of Military Families Speak Out :

President Bush tells us that in the end, more bloodshed will justify that which has already come about.

Most military families agree that this president proceeded with reckless indifference to the consequences of the troops, their families, and the people of Iraq. Mr. Bush is unwilling to accept advice that does not adhere to his insulated vision of Iraq. Our loved ones were there and we understand what kind of damage war does to a country.

This latest re-marketing of the war is more of the same rhetoric without substance, which he has continued to use in his attempts to rally Americans to his failed policies. This president disregarded the advice of General [Eric] Shinseki when in 2002 he advised a multi-national force along with nearly half a million troops. He advised that anything else would be a strategic disaster. His replacement was named early for his candor; others offering such honest assessments have received a similar fate.

Military advisers and other security experts, as well as the American people repeatedly acknowledge Iraq’s problems can only be solved by political means. We call on our representatives to reflect this thinking.

Our military have been placed in the midst of a civil war, which experts and the military well predicted would occur. Our troops continue to be misused by a president who cannot see the consequences of his actions and is incapable of charting a new course for our troops or the occupation of Iraq.

The only course of action supported by members of Military Families Speak Out is to bring the troops home now and take care of them upon their return.

    • That leaves Darth Chenny in control of the forces.

    • With the latest news coming out of Libby’s arraignment, it is far more likely that Cheney will be impeached before Bush. Libby is basically laying the blame of Plame’s outing on the White House’s shoulders, and Cheney was the one who instigated the leaks in order to destroy former US Ambassador Wilson’s career. This is how a thug’s ill-conceived plans blow up right in front of his fascist nose. Good Riddance.
