    Does the US know where or what country this stockpile is at?

    How long before the Iraq government can stand on it's own?

    Holding the President up for trial?

    Making the US government pay for it's mistakes?

    A stable democratically elected government in Iraq must be dominated by the Shiite majority or it won't be "democratic".

    What plan does the administration have to prevent Iraq from being dominated by the only other Shiite state in the area, Iran when it is threatened by the Sunni dominated states which are on the north, west, and south?

    We have given the Iranians a real shot at something they couldn't do for themselves in an 8 year war.

    First of all I want to thank you Mr Bush for tolerating all the mean remarks that people have been saying about you.

    When 9/11 happened we were at the bottom of the rung as far as the terrorists were concerned. They saw how our former president continue to take it on the chin as they blew up our navy vessels, took our citizens hostages and ran havoc with our allies. When the terrorists blew up the twin towers, the pentagon and took thousands of American lives they thought that we would just roll over and let them take over our country or worse still turn it into another Israel with bus bombings with everyone in terror what was going to blow up next.

    You didn't let that happen, our country is safer now than it was 10 years ago, our economic crisis was worse during Jimmy Carter's presidency but people only want want to see what effects them now, not what history could prove.

    Now that the war is won, we need to help the citizens have a more democratic society, our brave men and women are there to show these people that Americans are not evil, nor are we there to take their country from them but only to give them something that we have all ready, the right to worship as we want and the freedom to disagree.

    Progress is being made but the media will never show this because they hate you and they hate freedom from any other political agenda but their are own. I am so sorry that more cannot be done to change this but the with the war won and the middle east is slowly progressing towards change; I can only hope and pray that when our troops return they are not harassed and are rewarded for their efforts.

    What do you hope for the free citizens of Iraq?

    Mr. President, at the beginning of our incursion into Iraq, you thought that it would be a cake walk, and that it would be over in a few short weeks. You did not anticipate the active involvement of al qaeda in the ongoing killing of our troops. We are now in a quagmire there from which it is going to be extremely difficult to extract ourselves for the foreseeable future, and this war is going to cost us perhaps three trillion dollars.

    Hundreds of thousands of individuals have been killed, maimed or lost their homes. Iraq is in a shambles, and shows little sign of recovery. Its military, trained by us, certainly has shown that they are not yet capable of defending themselves from the dedicated, professional terrorist threats within Iraq.

    In light of this, why do you think you should not be held accountable for crimes against our country and the people of Iraq?

    *****

    Mister President, it is well known that our intelligence community is run by officers concerned about the real possibility of being passed over for promotion; if the administration sets the standard of the findings it wants the intelligence community to arrive at, the pressure to "find" what the administration wants will be irresistible.

    Since it was well known in the media that the administration had a clear agenda, was not the credibility of our intelligence community gravely compromised? If not, why not?

    *****

    Mr. President, in the first election, more voters voted for Al Gore than voted for you. Yet you acted as if you had received a mandate. If the majority of voters in the United States voted for a candidate who espoused the principles of the Democratic Party, how can you then pursue a Republican platform of the kind the majority of voters clearly have rejected?

    *****

    Mr. President, since you came to office, we have become involved in a nearly hopeless quagmire, our economy has taken a major downward turn into what anyone else would call a recession. Because of needless insulting remarks of you and folks in your so-called administration, decades of good relations with foreign countries now lie in shambles. You deliberately fail to fund your no-child-left-behind program, assuring its lackluster results. In a time when middle class folks are having trouble getting by, you still defend tax breaks for your filthy-rich friends.

    You can't talk right. You don't appear to think right. Your hand-picked administrators have in many cases not a clue as to what their jobs are, aside from feathering their own nest.

    Your adminstration has been typified by an arrogant attitude of "we know best, we are going to do what we want to do and there's nothing you can do about it." Yet, in almost every instance, your people have only utter failure to show for their efforts.

    Which of these would you say was your worst mistake? Why?

    I guess I would ask the president how his trips have been with the troops when he got to meet and greet them in Iraq. It is hard to think of questions, most of the stuff is OPSEC and he probably can't answer them anyways. So whoever gave you this project is a loser. What dofferance we have made to the country of Iraq, now that we have been there. Is the Taliban almost gone from Afgahanistan?

    Would he have attacked Iraq even if he did not have the excuse that the country process weapons of mass destructiion? If yes, would it be be cause of the oil, the historical baggage of the Gulf War, or the fact that Saddam supported the terrorists?

    Well we are already over there so nothing we can do about that . My biggest question if we are at war when we are done we help rebuild (WHY) and another question why are we paying over 3-4 dollars a gallon when they dont even pay 50 cents a gallon?

    Good Luck

    G.W., When ya gonna hand over the White House to John McCain?!

  • If it were directly to the President:

    Why would you send OUR people over to Iraq and leave them there for years?

    Would you get out and fight in this war?

    Do you know how many life's are being destroyed each second by a bomb, with a wife that longs for her husband to be home, and parents that cry there eyes out every night?

    Also, what positive is coming out of this war, other than making Muslims and the people over there, hate us?

    Why did you not plan the end game to come about before you left office?

    Did you ever envisage that one invasion would bring about the world wide hatred that America endures?

    Would not the invasion of Pakistan have been a better plan so as to eradicate all the terrorists they harbour?

    Would America be more accepted around the world if they ceased to pussy foot around the Palestine-Israel problem?

    While not all about Iraq there is, now a sinister connection to them all. Hope it helps.
