CIVIL WAR & Bush a WAROHOLIC

Good morning,

I have not posted in several days because I have been away for the Thanksgiving Holiday. Much has happened during that time in Iraq. Hundreds have been killed in multiple car bombings and other attacks in Baghdad and various other parts of the country. Finally, some of our news media is calling what has been ignited by America and it's coalition, by what it really is. It is called CIVIL WAR. News channels NBC, MSNBC, decided to finally call it a civil war yesterday. Mr. Bush, of course, will not call it a civil war, so he can feel he still has justification to keep the American troops in there.

Part of the problem that Mr. Bush has, is that he quit alcohol cold turkey and did not get professional help, such as enrolling in an Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) program. In AA, Mr. Bush would have been required to go through the grueling steps to heal himself from his addiction. I believe, that this man is a waroholic. Withdrawing his troops, would be as difficult as withdrawing from alcohol. It is my prediction, that troops will not begin to be withdrawn by any significant number until the man is literally GONE from office in 2008. He may make some feeble attempts at withdrawing some troops before the 2008 election to help his republican party, but I believe, within my heart, he would rather sacrafice his own republican party, than back down on his "Committment" to Iraq. His committment to Iraq, is a metaphore to a committment to himself.

I urge Bush, the Waroholic to seek immediate help. Mr. Bush, heal yourself, and for the sake of us all, try to understand the shades of grey. This "War" will not be won. Here are the AA steps that many follow. Consider it:

Step 1:
Admit you are powerless over Iraq--that your life had become unmanageable.

Step 2:
Belive that a Power greater than yourself could restore you to some form of sanity.

Step 3:
Made a decision to turn your will and our lives over to the care of democrats.

Step 4:
Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of yourself.

Step 5:
Admitted to the univers, to yourself and to another human being the exact nature of your wrongs.

Step 6:
Get entirely ready to have the universe and democrats remove all these defects of character.

Step 7:
Humbly ask the universse to remove your shortcomings, and subsequent removal from office.

Step 8:
Made a list of all persons you have harmed, and be willing to make amends to them all.

Step 9:
Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

Step 10:
Continued to take personal inventory and when you are wrong and promptly admit it.

Step 11:
Seek through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with the universe, praying only for knowledge and the power to carry that out. Listen to people. Some are smarter than you. Embrase diversity of thought.

Step 12:
Have a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, try to carry this message to other waroholics, and to practice these principles in all of your affairs.

Step 13: Retire.

Have a nice day.
