No One Likes Bush. Especially President Bush.

Is it just me, or can anyone else hardly wait until our president is out of office?

Ugh. No one even needs an explanation anymore. This man just absolutely sucks. I don't know if any of you voted for him, but I hope you really regret doing so now.

I remember back in 11th grade, I had to do a huge debate on whether or not the US was justified in invading Iraq or not. Two days before my presentation, Bush was like "Hey guyz! Invasion time!" but I continued to do my project anyway. My conclusion on the matter was that we were not justified in invading Iraq. First of all, none of Bush's claims stood up to scrutiny. "We have evidence that Iraq has millions of factories where it manufactures biological weapons." What evidence? If you don't believe me, you should check out the Iraq on the Record Report, compiled at the request of Rep. Henry A. Waxman.

The report focuses on the top five most important officials in US government talking about Iraq: President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard Cheney, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of State Colin Powell, and National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice.

It finds that an astounding 237 of the statements made by our government officials were misleading, uninformed, or simply dead wrong. The most misleading statements/lies were made in respect to Iraq manufacturing biological or chemical weapons.

Bush lying on record is blatant. “We found the weapons of mass destruction. . . . [F]or those who say we haven’t found the banned manufacturing devices or banned weapons, they’re wrong, we found them.”

Ugh. I'm not normally political at all, but this is disgusting. Of course, Iraq isn't the only place that our president's fucked up, but you guys either know this or could go read about it for yourself. It pissed me off especially today because I saw and agreed with the following photo.
