Looks like simple REALISM to me... (up is up, down is down, and gravity holds our feet on the ground....) But if you'd care to point out any specific observations or complaints with what I wrote, I'll be more then happy to consider them.

"Your view of the world is pathetically distorted... " No, his view is all documented and provable. So are the statements by Cheney, Rummy, Wolfiewitz and all the rest. Notice now how every day there is another republican putting more room between him or herself and the Administration's handling of Iraq. Not the initial war, but the horrendous handling of the occupation and indifference to the political realities of the area. A week ago it was Gingrich. Today it was McCain. Hagel yesterday. Soon it will be Allen, Giuliani, Frist, Brownback and Romney. It is inevitable....the record of inept management won't stand scrutiny, so if they hope to be elected someday they have to distance themselves from it. The list of screwups involving the Raj is so long and so pervasive that the competing books out now explaining the scope of the problem are falling all over each other.....No arab speakers...no currency policy....no cultural awareness...we were just going to be treated as liberators and Jeffersonian Democracy would spring up.... The problems were foreseeabel....if the neocons were willing to even consider the possibility.
