"For this great victory, Iran has paid zippo and are indeed making out like bandits on the tripling of oil prices." Not only that, they're just waiting for us to leave, so they can form a strong religious alliance with the Shia in Iraq and establish a regional theocracy. Iran wins in SO MANY ways from our invasion. I'm sure they're thrilled. There were some rumors that Chalabi, provider of so much of the bad intel that launched the war, was an Iranian agent. If true, he's done "a heck of a job"! foxnews.com From the peerless Fox News yet!

"This time though Old Europe declined to be involved so it's fair to blame it all on the Bushies, the Neocons, the expat Iraqis and the Brits." Don't forget that Denmark is with Bush&Blair(B&B). "For this great victory, Iran has paid zippo and are indeed making out like bandits on the tripling of oil prices." Oil prices would have gone to present levels with or with out B&B's Iraq war simply because of the increased demand from China and India. Unfortunately terrorists are the real victors thanks to B&B.

his time though Old Europe declined to be involved so it's fair to blame it all on the Bushies, the Neocons, the expat Iraqis and the Brits. Oh, absolutely, the most incompetent, corrupt presidential administration we've ever enjoyed has dragged us into that black hole and created a petri dish for Al Qaeda terrorists that's probably as good as bin Laden's Afghan summer training camp ever was. But the mess the region is in is not originally our fault by far is all. For this great victory, Iran has paid zippo and are indeed making out like bandits on the tripling of oil prices. Yes, and the gang rape of the American middle class by Big Oil is continuing here - we've just seen Exxon's quarterly revenues a few days ago. Another smirking "not a windfall profit". I'd like to hear one single fng thing* that the Chimp's administration has done to make life better for the American middle class and the poor. It is stupefying that the American public is largely passively putting up with this. Maybe people will vote with their pocketbooks in the next elections, but who knows. The Chimp could well wriggle out of his problems and spin things - the public memory is very short, and we've got Fox News to enlighten everyone.
