point by point response on grinned so-called bet

as US elections approach, Sodomy will increase his stubbornness
nothing will be conceded, since conceding anything will be seen as weakness at the critical time
besides, no US delegation would ever be seen as devoid of spies, and mostly would not be devoid of spies

new US bases take a long time to create, not months
US will never leave Prince Sultan Airbase, ever, PERIOD
US will likely not have anytime soon any new MidEast bases
we cannot even pass a warship thru the Suez Canal now
we cannot secure a single Iraq neighbor to assist as an attacking base
we have only succeeded in full alienation among all Arab states, not to mention Iran, whose response has been payment for oil in euro currency

with recent security documents and victim lawsuits, the Saudi resentment is fast rising
as Saudi money continues to pull out, the drain in the US markets will be pulled
this weakens any power for US leaders making decisions

zero progress on any front
colossal lack of leadership within the US
so far a resounding victory for Sodomy across the board
with his nose elevated in the air, Sodomy is likely to do something bold and stupid though
that is where Israel enters the equation
summer is over, and the heat has abated
time for more fun & games in the MidEast

no, this Bush Administration is even more inept than Clinton's
Slick Willy's central motive was to have his missile suckled
Bushy doesnt have a clue as to how to accomplish a single intitiative
I cannot point to a single accomplishment in this terrorism nonsense war
not even a cleaning out of the Taliban seemed finished

I have never seen so much confusion, hypocrisy, isolation, alienation, wasted spending, lack of coordinated planning, and just plain jerking off on a world stage

A good article here on housing in the US

The Housing Bubble BluesJohn Mauldin

In it he refers to this study, which is also worth reading:
