Shut the US Senate Down

We hear from the pundits and politicians that there is nothing that can be done by the United States Congress to end our Nation’s involvement in Iraq. We have also learned now that a major supporter of George W. Bush, a supporter, the CEO of Hunt Oil, who is contributing 25 million dollars to his Library, has made an oil deal with the Kurds in northern Iraq that will most likely end any talk of solidifying the Nation of Iraq.
Ignorance is always bliss. When I read the Republican supporter Letters to the Editor I am miffed that these so called intelligent people continue to believe in George Bush’s war in Iraq and that they continue to think that the reason for the war was “weapons of mass destruction” rather than the real reason, OIL.
About a year ago the “Letter to the Editor” editor challenged me on my information regarding the cost of the war. I stated, from legitimate sources, that this war was going to cost over a trillion dollars. A trillion dollars that could have been spent on developing new energy sources, underwriting a one payer health care system, and for sure increasing taxpayer’s contributions to a terribly underfunded educational system, not to mention the environmental benefits of reducing our dependence on fossil fuels.
There is a way to end the war and to bring our men a women home, shut down the Senate and authorize funds for the sole purpose of redeployment. The blood of any American troop who dies as a result of this action by Congress will be on the hands of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, both of whom were cowards during the Viet Nam war, and their privileged buddies at Hunt Oil and Halliburton.
