Bush Administration stands up for capitalism
When Osama bin Laden - in his long-awaited for new video which apparently contains a mixture of hip-hop, jazz, death threats and social commentary - took shots at capitalism, the world awaited for the Bush Administration to take a stand and fight back for their nation’s beloved economic system.
Their reply showed the world that they would stand by capitalism come hell or high water:
“Bush plots strategy to sell Iraq policy”
The administration sees Bush’s trip to Iraq and the events of next week as a package to put the best face on the troop buildup he announced in January. Even as opposition to the war grew at home, the U.S. military presence swelled by 30,000 to roughly 160,000.
“If you had asked two months ago, ‘Is the surge succeeding?’ people would have said, ‘Ah, we’re getting killed.’ I mean literally,” White House press secretary Tony Snow said in an interview. “But now it’s very obvious that on the military side there has been some profound progress.
Take that Osama. We’ll sell anything we can get our hands on.

“We’re” as in the “we” that in no way includes the “us”, which includes the Tony Snows, Dick Cheneys, and George W Bushies of the world.
This “we” can get killed for freedom and such. The other “we” that includes “us” stay in our comfy homes and push idiotic foreign policy. Meh, it’s a living.
