So far I've been underwhelmed by the Bush economic choices, but I did note this:

war in Iraq is much like murder, risking the uncovered chips

they say in murder, 9 things can go wrong, and if you can think of 3 of them, then you are a genius
(this ignores the professional hitmen)

I would say with this war in Iraq, 19 things can go wrong, and if Bush & Company can think of 7 of them, cover those chips with a strong shells, build alliances for those weak links to be covered flanks, then they are geniuses

I wont bother to list all the dangerous unplanned consequences
in order to cover all the chips on the table, we would have to organize many Arab states, get them to agree, get them to cooperate, and have them follow through with no big mistakes, no big arguments, no hothead shots, no tactical hitmen bombers

not a chance
not a chance
not a chance
we Americans like to dream of successful wars
we havent had one since World War II
not Korea
not VietNam
not Somalia
Grenada and Panama will go down in history as huge triumphs
not Kuwait

AND NOT IRAQ

dream on, Christian Soldiers
this Islamic gang is more like a virus than a human enemy
this isnt about American Poltical capital
it is about understanding your enemy and their methods

WE DONT UNDERSTAND ISLAMICS, NOR THEIR METHODS
WE DONT TELL THE COMPLETE TRUTH ON OUR MOTIVES OR ALLIANCES

I am an American, a loyal citizen
but this whole affair stinks to high heaven
we are vastly underestimating our enemy
deception that reached heights in the 1990's is another weakness

>>We can win in Iraq, but only if Bush prepares properly

This is not my war.

Bush does this in the name of himself and his bloodthirsty, power mad, oil sucking neo-con cult.

2004. A change is gonna come.
