Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist says Iraq is a massive failure
http://www.tuftsdaily.com/articleDisplay.jsp?a_id=2615


Hersh predicted "real trouble" for the President in the 2004 elections. "You have a war fought by the underclass, financed by the underclass and for the profit of the upperclass," He said. "I think Bush's going to lose , unless he makes some radical change, which he's not going to do."
The operation in Iraq has put pressure on the President, Hersh said. "Bush's got money troubles, troop troubles; he's going to have to hold it. I just don't see any way out."

2. Over 30 years
I have agreed with Mr. Hersh since he was covering Vietnam. Yet, despite his insight and honesty, this country has elected Nixon, Reagon and TWO Bushes. That is discouraging.

3. I suspect, NOT THIS TIME
Too much Shit in the Pub Foundation lends to a weak/soft structure with height severly restricted.

Cannot build a tall structure on a pile of shit.

Busah has laid his foundation, let him flounder in it.

4. This should be a campaign slogan...

"You have a war fought by the underclass, financed by the underclass and for the profit of the upperclass," He said.
