Ok, I am a political junkie, from long ago. I shook hands with then Governor Nelson Rockafeller, I attended a rally in 1968 for HHH, I shook hands with Bill Clinton, saw Jimmy Carter in person...lifelong Democrat and all, but......
Hey, if Bush, Rove & crew can now pull off a cut and run, soon after telling us Iraq was the central point in the war on terror just weeks ago, if they can pull this off, well, hell, my hat will be off, I will say: Good shot man, man good shot.
I will be able to retire, go off to pasture and finally have seen that you can fool enough of the people all of the time, after all, my faith in the voter can be put to bed.
But, you have to admire the sheer audacity of it all, the war is a pure crusade of democracy and making the world safe for same, Iraq is the focus of the war on terror, the new Iraqi police is riddled with isurgents and crooks, there are precious few Iraqi military that can stand up alone. All this was true before, it is true now, the only thing to change is the direction of the political wind, it blows ill.
