BUSH BLAMED
Mother Sheehan wants someone to blame for everything:
“We need to bring our troops home immediately,” Sheehan told the crowd. “We need to hold someone responsible for all the death and destruction in the world. We need to see George Bush and the rest of them tried for crimes against humanity.”
Celebrate Chimpeachler W. Katrinaburton’s responsibility for all the death and destruction in the world with this charming coffee mug. It has a puppy on it! A doomed puppy. Buy it! Meanwhile, Sheehan’s message doesn’t seem to have reached the despairing folks in Afghanistan and Iraq:
Iraqis and Afghans are among the most optimistic people in the world when it comes to their economic future, a new survey for the BBC suggests ...
In Afghanistan, 70% say their own circumstances are improving, and 57% believe that the country overall is on the way up.
In Iraq, 65% believe their personal life is getting better, and 56% are upbeat about the country’s economy.
And while you anti-globos are thinking about that, think about this:
The World Bank gets a clear vote of confidence, with 55% saying it has a positive influence in the world.
Its biggest boosters are in regions where it is most active.
Nigeria, Kenya, Tanzania, Indonesia and Afghanistan showed marked support for the World Bank ...
Someone tell these idiots.
