if we assume your analysis is correct, mojo, i imagine that you would be kinda horrified by the mounting evidence of mind-bending incompetence on the part of this administration (see the op for a small taste)...and that you would care less about which party was in power than you would that whomever is in power is not is not a fuck up, as george w bush and his band have ampy proven to be.

another way: i do not see how you square your consistent emphasis on geopolitics with anything like support of this administration--i would think that even if you supported them in principle, their ineptness would prompt you to wonder if the bush administration is a far more dangerous adversary of what you see as american geopolitical interests than any combination of other powers, real or imagined, present or potential.

the logic of your posts indicates an affection for neocon style thinking about military strategy. but you have to wonder if a systematic undermining of political legitimacy could outweigh any advantage of military strength.

were i in your position, i would be very very unhappy with the present state of things.
