The Strategy is Working

This is frightening on many fronts:
KABUL, Afghanistan Mar 19, 2006
(AP)-- An Afghan man is being prosecuted in a Kabul court and could be
sentenced to death on a charge of converting from Islam to Christianity,
a crime under this country's Islamic laws, a judge said Sunday.
The trial is believed to be the first of its kind in Afghanistan and
highlights a struggle between religious conservatives and reformists
over what shape Islam should take here four years after the ouster of
the Islamic fundamentalist Taliban regime.
First, I'm concerned that the religious right in this country will try
to match this hysteria by implementing a like sensibility in their newly
aquired court system. Secondly, is this the kind of democracy that
BushCo. has spent three years, thousands of lives and trillions of
dollars exporting to the middle east?
Finally, today, we hear this from the Screw-up-In-Chief:
CLEVELAND - President Bush on Monday cited progress in stabilizing
an insurgent stronghold in northern Iraq, saying he has "confidence
in our strategy" and critics should look beyond the images of violence
to see clear signs of progress.
Worst. President. Ever.

The Bush Regime: "A bunch of mindless jerks who'll be
the first against the wall when the revolution comes."
