The Democrats forced a closed session this week. In what is coming out to be one of the worst years of Bush's Presidency, recent polls show the majority of America against his policies in Iraq, views on the economy, and he is supported by just over 1/3 of the country. The indictment of Scooter Libby has also tainted an already shady Bush administration.

This year has also taken us to new lows. We have surpassed the 2,000 person death toll for Americans in the sequel to Vietnam. Bush has also seen himself strongly criticized for his poor views on immigration, but he was fired upon on that issue by his own Republicans. And we must not forget the failure at appointing Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court, his first choice to replace Sandra Day O'Connor. This year has also taken us to record highs in the price of oil.

And where oh where is Osama Bin Laden? Does anyone remember him? You know, he was responsible for this:


Five years into his Presidency, we've been promised many things, one of them was that we started the war in Iraq to disarm Saddam Hussein of his weapons of mass destruction that never existed. Now the Democrats are finally taking a charge. All the Republicans in Congress can do is sit back and say, "No, this is a political stunt." All I can say is: No, it's not. Bush lying to us was a political stunt. This is a push to find the truth. The truth to why we entered Iraq. The truth to how Bush has managed to lie to us through his teeth and get away with it. The truth as to how the supposedly best intelligence in the world managed to screw up and cost Americans billions and ruin thousands of lives of families of young boys just a year older than me.
