No, no, no! For my money, the US can stay in Iraq -- forever.

A great problem the US has is to keep the racism of the whites well hidden, especially in the military. Reason is that there are so many blacks, coloreds and Hispanics in the armed forces (why, is completely beyond me. Must be for the money). So, if the Amerikan Empire is to flourish, it has to do so on the backs of the blacks -- like the Roman Empire flourished on the backs of the Nubian slaves. Unless, of course, they are planning on sending some Iraqi "democrats" into Africa to do their dirty work, then the blacks aren't all that important. Anyway, I have no doubt that the British will teach them just what to do -- of course, for a price.

BTW, there has to be a good reason why an African-American beauty has been appointed to the position of Secretary of State -- and it ain't because of her honesty! Indeed, what better way is there of disguising one's racism than to put a black in the government -- especially an ultra right wing, fascist government? And, she's always there to do a bit of dirty work -- just like cousin Colin did at the UN -- and just like she already did at the 9-11 commission hearings. Strange how white liberals always seem to trust blacks -- no matter how dishonest they are?! I suppose it has something to do with guilt.

No doubt about it -- and yours truly's in the hot seat!
