I know very little about this, but George Bush is apparently 
an "evangelical Christian," which is to say, a member of a sect 
within the larger Christian community which believes invading Iraq is 
going to somehow bring Jesus Christ bavk to earth. I don't mind 
people believing this privately, but taking over countries and 
starring ware on such a basis disturbs me. Needless to say, his True 
Believing followers cannot be reasoned with on this subject.

The commercial motivation is simply to seize oil. The Bush family is 
in the oil buusiness and Halliburton, which was given total control 
of all Iraq's oil, is the vice ppresient's company. Needless to say, 
his True Believing followers cannot be reasoned with on this subject.

Most worrisomne of all is that George Bush and his cronies appear to 
be intellectually inferior people who should be sweeping the floors 
and not running the government. Needless to say, his True Believing 
followers cannot be reasoned with on this subject.

We are supposed to be able to choose Presidents democratically and 
not ask the supreme court to choose them for us, as they did in 2000 
and will do again in 2004. Needless to say, his True Believing 
followers cannot be reasoned with on this subject.
