Editor: The U.S. President, "Bush the bully", used the term "shock and awe" that the Iraqis would experience as he declared war on that small country under the guise of Iraq possessing weapons of mass destruction. He alienated his most powerful allies: France, Germany and Spain because they were against his idea of going to war. He has found no W.M.D. to date and got the U.S. in a real mess. His subjects will be paying big time for many years to come because his actions were not given proper time and thought. A great lot of young men and women in the service of the U.S. have lost their lives and many more will do the same in the near future. All these young people's parents, relatives and friends will probably not cast a vote for the Republican Party in the coming election this fall. Now that the "shock and awe" shoe is on the other foot, he will be hard pressed to keep his office as president. No matter how powerful a nation is, it still needs allies to back it up.
