<<Thanks for the laugh, I needed that. ;^)>>

... i did not see anything funny. I saw direness.

the inability to see a problem, admit to a mistake, deal with reality, is the problem

i think the matters of consequence to note are:

- bush and his whole group of advisors are idiots, adequately proven

- iraq study group is moronic, and dreaming

- the bush lot were voted in by 51%, who in turn should either be wise and sorry, or are idiots

- the system, from this point forward, is geared to continuously put forth idiocy for leadership (unless obama is allowed to lead, which i doubt)

- the wat-wot-whatnot war is not being won

- allies, not too many to begin with, are falling off the band wagon

- energy has become more critical, and dependency much more than before

- faith-based states, whether in MEast or NAmerica, is a bad idea

- fundamentalism, whether Islamic or Christian, is not a good idea

- has anyone ever come across an evangelical salesman for Buddhism? No, of course not.

- and for non-believers of god, confucian teachings can offer moral guidance, naturally, and without wars

So, you voted for bush

You thought his advisors were wise

You supported the wat-wot-whatnot war

You wanted your kids to learn Arabic language, so as to serve in an endless war, i guess, as opposed to Chinese, so as to learn the true Confucian path, I gather

and you thought debt was not a problem

Will you vote for Obama? and accumulate gold?

in other words, will youaccept good advice that is meant to be good for you and repent, before it is too late?

Ayman is saying the following: the guys who got the government of Iraq, were 30 years out fo the country and were in the exiles.

They are the counterparts the US is talking now. And it is not working. Ayman is advising the US to start talking with other guys who really can make a difference.
