as an American and as a human being. According to McClellan and others, this was Bush's theory of how he could become a "great" President. All great Presidents were "war" Presidents. He has been quoted by several sources that he would do it differently than his Dad if he were President. He would not hesitate to go to war. At least, he would not hesitate to send others to war.

Early in the Administration, his and the neo-con philosophy leaked out to an unsuspecting public that they believed you could "create your own reality". By creating chaos and war, they could create a new reality in the Middle East. They planned on attacking Saddam even before 9/11. In fact, there were several massive bombing missions in the summer before 9/11 in the Basra area. They were going to have their war.

But this theory is sub-human. It is criminal, in my opinion. To create war and upheaval so you can go down in history as a "great" man is incomprehensible to me. How could any rational person think in such a way? The answer is that they can't. It is an insane thought process that would create turmoil and chaos in order to "change the reality".

But throughout history, pain and suffering and death always "changes" reality. In Iraq, Bush and the Neo-cons wanted to create a capitalist utopia in the Middle East. At the heart of their "utopia" would be control of the natural resources of that region, namely oil. If a million people had to die to accomplish this "change", then so be it. That is the price that has to be paid. And in the process, the President goes down in history as a "great" man. That is the delusion that has been the guiding policy of this Adminstration for the last eight years.

But it troubles me that there are so many Americans that defend this policy. That there are so many citizens so easily brainwashed. But they were and they continue to be. The only weapon we have is the truth. Our leaders are insane.
