THE QUESTION THAT MUST BE ASKED TONIGHT


According to Newsweek, Bush plans to negotiate with Iraq to make a pact that will obligate the United States to remain in Iraq for another 10-12 years. Democracy Now reports today that the Iraqi prime minister stated that Iran will need the United States to keep their military forces in Iran until 2018 or 2020.

The corporate media-ocrity will be negligent if they don't ask the Democratic Candidates how they will be able to bring our troops home if Bush signs this pact with Iraq.

Freudian slip in your entry. You've got us staying in Iran....

Sing with me:

Imperialisation,

We want your nation,

Its our destination,

give it to uuuuussssss

Or face your devastation.

But seriously, sticking around and establishing permanent military bases and some US form of control in other countries is nothing new for us. The Dems aren't going to do anything to change that now.

Anok---I agree with you...I just hope the DEMS are more vulnerable to pressure from US to close many of those bases.

Both parties are owned by the corporateions....I believe the Republicans have sold out totally...hopefully there are enough Kucinich and Edwards types still in the Dem party so that we will be able to influence them....

that's my hope (delusion?) anyway....buzz...buzz....
