"Woolsey wants the U.S. to carry out World War IV, as he says, for several years, in order to redraw the Middle East map


Well, not exactly what Woolsey actually does say but it was good for a chuckle.

No blood for sand!

<<Next stop Damascus?>>

Could be. $80 billion authorized for the war and only $20 billion spent to date. Two Carrier Battle Groups headed home so the cost per day is going down. Also the cost of getting our troops there has been absorbed. Don't have to get Turkey's permission to cross either.

Then on to Israel and solve the Palestinian problem. After that we could hand out numbered cards and call "next".

Bush has been referred to as a "cowboy". And he is. To me a cowboy is someone who knows what needs to be done, saddles up or loads his truck and goes out and does his job without whining or crying. Job needs to be done and he'll get home when it's done.
