Texas Fred Sees that the Emperor is Naked or Iraq as the Legacy of George W. Bush

. . . No, G. W. Bush is not the emperor, nor is the next in line for G. W.'s position entitled to be bestowed that title. Emperors are passé and the emperor to which this post's title refers is the one in the Hans Christian Anderson story where an emperor is convinced (I don't remember how or why) that he is dressed in regal finery and his subjects are afraid to notice or remark that he not wearing any clothes--at all.

That is until one child cries out, "But the emperor is not wearing any clothes!"

If any entity can be compared to the emperor in this sad tale here, it is us, the people who were convinced by the Bush administration that after Afghanistan, Iraq was the place to strike our enemies next.

Although many of us were puzzled at the choice of target, we were flimflammed by images of WMDs that the evil (and he was evil) Saddam had in store for us.

But the question remains and festers: Why Iraq, when the Islamic evil emanated from Saudi Arabia and Iran?

Here is a bit of what Texas Fred has to say about Iraq in his post Bush uses final 50 days in office to tout legacy:

I can tell you right now, had I been on the advisory staff when the decision was made to go into Iraq, I would have likely made the BIG news. Iraq was an ill-advised effort, nearly everyone in the national security and Intel business KNEW that. I KNOW that there were some advisers that told Bush the truth about Iraq, but the truth wasn’t what the man wanted to hear. He wanted to hear support and justifications. Here are some of my reasons for believing that Iraq, and the continued prosecution of that war, is the cause of the current financial maladies that this nation is suffering.

We are dumping BILLIONS upon BILLIONS of OUR tax dollars into one of the most oil rich nations on earth, and we are seeing NO return for OUR investment.

Personally, I would NEVER have gone to Iraq . . .

"Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends [i.e., securing inherent and inalienable rights, with powers derived from the consent of the governed], it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."

Who's Legitimate? Who Cares? We Should.

Born in the USA! Or not. Who cares? He's the "prez," ensconced in our White House. Commander-in-Chief? Title conferred on him by popular electoral acclamation cum ACORN voter fraud.

But a "natural born citizen?" Hardly. Derided as "birthers," "tea-baggers," and "crazies," those who question his legitimacy do have a point.

from The American Thinker:

Barack H. Obama is the logical outcome of racial socialism. You can see it in his words and actions, and his very physical stance, all signaling his sense of superiority, the flip-side of feelings of inferiority he is reacting against. Obama's core support came from the Leftist alliance of grievance groups in spite of his total lack of relevant experience. Obama is objectively the least qualified person to be elected to the presidency. But the media could not say that, because it would have been non-P.C. to tell the truth.

Did the Arabs and Persians Discover their Oil?

We discovered the oil that they are selling us and controlling us with.

Not only the Saudis, but wherever oil was found under Moslem lands, WE made that possible. Surprised?

Well, the "oil-producing nations" nations have done a good job of making us believe that they explored, discovered and are producing the oil that they use as a club over our head.

We explored for it, discovered it, developed it, produced it, marketed it.

Today, they can produce and market it by themselves, but had we not paid for the initial exploration and development, they would be as they were before OIL: nomads, roaming over sterile sand.

From "LEAVING NORMAL"

I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything.

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than working at Blockbuster. In fact, if your parents are footing the bill to put your pansy ass through 4 years plus of college, you haven't begun to be enlightened.

I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse Jackson practices, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution.Can I get an AMEN on that one?
