it's funny reading these snide posts from our conservative comrades who in the main supported these bush administration gifts that keep on giving and the neo-con foreign policy ideology that made these debacles seem somehow reasonable, something edifying to get into, something with a Point, the sort of thing a military hegemon should be doing in order to solidify its military hegemon-ness. and iraq, why that was sold in the way world war 1 was, just a little military adventure kids, nothing to worry about, the locals will be grateful.
remember?
and iraq is a gift that keeps on giving. it'll keep on giving for a long time, sadly. thanks, george w bush and everyone who supported him.
