Any credibility?

"We heard a few reports, in one case corroborated by photographs, that some soldiers had so lost their moral compass that they'd mocked or desecrated Iraqi corpses. One photo, among dozens turned over to The Nation during the investigation, shows an American soldier acting as if he is about to eat the spilled brains of a dead Iraqi man with his brown plastic Army-issue spoon."

I want to move to Europe. This government is being ran by popularity hungry politicians. Its turning into a middle school pageant. Few people know who a good candidate for president is. The only people that have a chance to run for president shouldn't be. Are politicians running a country or running their campaign?

A rare exception was George Bush made a decision to veto a tobacco tax that would provide 35 billion dollars to children's health care. This decision was obviously unpopular and not for his campaign. I rarely agree with the way he runs the country but this caught my interest. If he did tax the tobacco industry the economy can suffer from it. He does want to increase funds for child health care but not by 35 billion dollars. I'm not sure how much health care needs but 35 billion seems far more than enough. Bush only wanted 5 billion.

I have no idea why we are in Iraq. At first is was because "Saddam blah blah weapons" and "bin laden something something hiding" or what ever. the conspiracy showed evidence(valid or invalid) that the government framed the 911 attack to have an excuse to retaliate but also take over the oil in Iraq. but oil prices are rising and the weapons Saddam had are missing. 

And it seams like we near at the end of the world. I almost feel a calm before the storm. All this talk about overpopulation and global warming doesn't stop. it may be another Y2K that many people made a lot of money from. But it never happened. Is it something the business conglomerates are making up to sell there hybrid cars. when to polar ice caps melt, the world will not flood. fill a glass with ice and water and see if when the ice melts the water overflows. it wont. Al Gore evidently never watched Bill Nye the science guy. If you are born again read Genesis 9:15.

"when the polar ice capslmelts, the world will not flood. fill a glass with ice and water and see if when the ice melts the water overflows, it wont"
your example is wrong... it should be " put ice on top of a glass full of water, when the ice melts, the glass will overflow with water"
