Michael Moore: Good riddance Osama. Now come back to your ways, my good ol' USA" |

The Bin Laden Era Is Over: Let's Make America Great by Ending Our Wars and Restoring Our Rights Good riddance Osama. Now come back to your ways, my good ol' USA
.............................
If we really want to send bin Laden not just to his death, but also to his defeat, may I suggest that we reverse all of that right now. End the wars, bring the troops home, make the rich pay for this mess, and restore our privacy and due process rights that used to distinguish us from any other country. Right now, our democracy looks like Singapore and our economy has gone desperately Greek.
I know it will be hard to turn the clock back to before 9/11 when all we had to worry about were candidates stealing elections. A multi-billion dollar industry has grown up around "homeland security" and the terror wars. These war profiteers will not want to give up their booty so easily. They will want to keep us in fear so they can keep raking it in. We will have to stop them. But first we must stop believing them.
.............................
Good riddance Osama.
Come back to your ways, my good ol' USA.
The Rest:

1. I am afraid his "good ol' USA" is gone forever. |

Once innocence is lost it can never be regained. It is only going to go further downhill from here.

2. The geopolitics of central asian pipelines won't allow for that. |
|
And we'll still call it a war on terrorism.
