inside Iraq, we will see in the next four weeks
if the level of violence escalates
whether govt officials are targeted

unsure really what Al Qaeda would like to see in US elections
on that point it is only guesswork

excllent NYorker article
which certainly was the "view from the left"

I am continually amazed at how this Bushy is insulting the intelligence of so large a slice of Americans
yet they still support him
like my own WW2 veteran father
somehow he regards lack of Bushy support as insubordination
since we are at war
regardless of why or where we are at war

much of Bushy support might come from a perverse source
most Americnas are not political, so they trust the leader
and hesitate to boot him out unless serious errors or decline
they just dont see the decline

THE USA IS AN INSULATED SOCIETY, FULL OF DUMBASSES
they cannot seriously assess the economy
for sure they dont like outsourcing since jobs are lost
they cannot seriously assess the European diplomatic damage
since they already hate the French
they cannot seriously assess the fractures to NATO foundation
because NATO was very anything they fought for, age issue
