Letter of the WeeQ

It was no surprise that George W. Bush has stated that our troops will remain in Iraq through 2008. After all, Bush has spent his life having people in power (his family, wealthy friends, the Supreme Court) give him an enterprise (an oil company, a baseball team, the United States) that he promptly proceeds to run into the ground.

Then he moves on, leaving a mess for someone else to clean up. The quagmire in Iraq, ballooning national debt, etc. have become problems for future presidents and our descendants.

True to form, Bush happily goes about his usual pattern - sowing chaos while others reap the results. But, how could anyone expect anything else from him? It's all he knows.
