I think i am going to get booted over at kens thread(again). I replied to a post about new iraq leadership trying low taxes/supply side approach. I said iraqi experiment with capitalism and democracy was akin to a lab experiment for third world, particularly the newly freed nations to find a better future. (as opposed to UN/Euro/kosovo model. Some clown named GST attacked me for supporting the thousands of deaths of iraqis incurred in order to have lab experiment. Hell i even said jury was out on whether this would be successful. I have my doubts whether democracy/capitalism can be transplanted to that area but i would have had my doubts for Japan also after WW2.
I go back their for one day and answer an obscure post about supply side economics in iraq and am lambasted in the first response. Oh BTW the reason i am going to get banished is i referred to the poster as Forest Gump. Oh well. Mike

I emailed your post to Brit Hume

That started hitting the blogs yesterday. Nobody would believe it. I am sure it will be picked up tonight by Fox, at the least. It is going to embarrass the hell out of the "New York Times."
