Rumor is that France was going to send in 15,000 troops into Iraq but Bush's arrogance stopped them cold.

This is Sioux's board. I think you were replying to him?

"The most effectual engines for [pacifying a nation] are the public papers... [A despotic] government always [keeps] a kind of standing army of newswriters who, without any regard to truth or to what should be like truth, [invent] and put into the papers whatever might serve the ministers.

This suffices with the mass of the people who have no means of distinguishing the false from the true paragraphs of a newspaper."

--Thomas Jefferson

I begrudgingly agree that Dumbya will make such a mess of America Al Sharpton could win the next one.
Maybe some new revelations not yet unearthed will surface of "All The President's Men".
I would guess that George is the most hated man in our country. Can anyone name another to compete for that honor?
