So we have a choreographed ballet a trois, with Rummy and Cheney calling people Nazi appeasers while Bushy says Iraq is not just part of the war on terror, it's the main show!!
Their words are absolute BS. There's no comparison between Hitler and the Sunni insurgency or Al Queada or anything going on today, and the civil war in Iraq and the few foreigners there to take advantage of a chance to kill US soldiers have nothing to do with preventing terror attacks, anywhere.
But they are striking a pose, playing a role, acting like fighters, on the offensive, calling people names and starting fights to back up their authority and their decisions, regardless of any facts or reality at all.
They calculate that the words don't matter, and the reality doesn't matter, that a certain segment of potential voters will be aroused by seeing a fighter swinging hard, calling out his opponents. It's like watching pro wrestling or a prize fight. It's not about anything but the fight.
There's no point in debating the words. It's time to call it what it is, a huge stage show to look like a brave warrior, a dedicated soldier, itching for a fight. Some people like that. It's paper thin and puppy dumb, and it's time the democrats and pundits dismissed the whole stupid act as the charade it is.
Invading Iraq was unconstitutional from the start and every day we stay we help build Iran into a more powerful regional superpower. A victory in Iraq against Sunni insurgents means a victory for Iran. That's the reality.
