8) In his latest speech, Bush promised to bring further "freedom" to the "Ea-ra-keys" by -- wait for it -- building a
new maximum security prison in place of the old one
 
But contrary to White House spin, Iraqis aren't at all happy about their >cough!< "liberation"...
"They have destroyed everything....They are the terrorists"
"Even Saddam wasn't as cruel as the Americans."
""The Americans must have no religion.... They worship force, not God."
