A once respected Man who now utters the most inane things. What an idiot!

2. The way things are going, if today is any indicator, they'll be

5. That didn't take long

They couldn't even wait until the phony puppet government had a tiny bit of phony puppet sovereignty before they started taking even that away. As bad as the old Soviet Union.

6. The whole stupid neocon plan is falling completely apart.

They had better start finding bigger and better carrots to prevent this situation from getting even bloodier. They really should focus all energy into jobs and free/full elections in Iraq instead of their failed "rule of force" and puppet government policies.
