Family and friends of the two-thirds of a million people killed since the beginning of George Bush's war on Iraq are angry and weighing their options. An enormous class action lawsuit is being contemplated.In that U.S. "federal law prohibits anyone who has been 'adjudicated as a mental defective,' as well as those who have been involuntarily committed to a mental health facility are banned from buying a gun," Iraqis want to know how a known sociopath like Bush could have purchased such guns with which to kill hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians despite existing laws.
The problem likely to confront the Iraqis, if they decide to pursue legal action, is the fact president Bush has never actually been adjucated mentally defective. Furthermore, the records that Bush was ever involuntarily committed to a mental health facility or directed to seek outpatient treatment after being declared mentally ill and a danger to himself or the public don't exist. They would have been expunged (much like his questionable military record) by Karl Rove long before Bush ran for the presidency in 2000.
The most difficult burden of proof for the Iraqis, however, is going to be that George Bush, insane or not, did buy the guns which killed all those Iraqis. That's because he really didn't.
No, congress is the body that purchased the weapons for Bush after he asked them to get him some guns and ammunition. But the money congress used to buy them for Bush came from us, U.S. taxpayers.
So it's going to be difficult for Iraqis to pin all those murders on Bush when it's obvious no one was really responsible. As Bush has taught us over the past six years, particularly when it comes to screw-ups, there is no accountability. That makes those hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqis--most likely--just a big "accident." But it's an accident president Bush continues to support, however. Oh wait, maybe I'd best stop here because I'm approaching that old definition of insanity, aren't I?

Well then, I want my money back! I expect better value for my bucks than the lazy-crazy guy twiddling his thumbs in the oval ofc barking about funding his murder machines.
Shame on you for using big words like adjucated, which you know Bush can't read, pronounce or understand, so all he does is admire the picture you posted. Laura would like a dozen wallet-sizes, please.
So, Dada ... since when is this a DANISH Dally? What IS a Danish Dally? Why Danish? Hmmmm? ~~ D.K.
Deke: Hahahaa! If I made Pickles smile then this was all worth it!
Now...about that name change (temp? perm?), it was just in a very anguished impulsive moment of reaction to the umpteenth story of the day of how our government "serves us"...(ah, that's sarcasm, no doubt). Coupled with a penchant for alliteration, Denmark, ergo "Danish" was my escape of choice.
oh ... I thought maybe you were having a Danish with your morning coffee. I lost track of some friends who moved to Copenhagen decades ago, but I heard they managed to make it through the first few bitter winters, so I bet they're still there. I imagine once you get used to a country with real concern for human rights, it would be difficult to return here. I would miss the sun, although the prospect of living with all those former Vikings might be quite exciting. I guess one could always spend winters in Italy. Hmmm, with global warming, maybe Denmark will even warm up a few degrees (earth day snark - Skoal) !
ps, pickles' smile is worth less than the Stepford Wife puppet strings that pull her jaw muscles firmly into place. ~~ D.K.
Thanks for reminding me, Raed: In that the United States has long championed itself as being the pinacle among nations with real concern for human rights, I assumed their total erosion under the Bush regime bode badly for the rest of the world.
But, alas, as you point out, human rights now exceed our own in those countries who don't bow down to lick the boots of our (sociopathic) Emperor.
Thanks for reminding me.
Denmark is looking better & better. I was just watching C-Span coverage of the French Election today. I like that they vote on Sunday. I didn't like that a right-winger is now poised to take the reins of power. He will face off against a socialist woman. The right-wing guy polled at 22% up to voting day, but miraculously received 30%. Does this sound familiar? He is considered America-Friendly. Vive la France. ~~ D.K.
Barbara Bush just sent in her order for a dozen wallet size photos, too! Family keepsakes are important to those Bushies!
Yeh, what a Wall of Shame those photos make.
LOVE IT!! class action suit -- where do i sign?
