I am afraid that the neocons will get what they want.

I think they have succeeded in stiring up enough shit in countries who oppose us that an all out war will happen before we can get this asshole out of office. He will succeed in destroying the world in his quest for total control.

1. As I said to LaLa RaRa this morning:

"We're not scewed until we're screwed". Aside from the very real death and destruction in Iraq and Israel/Lebanon/Palestine, this may still be a big game of chicken with Iran.

I don't think we hold the cards on that one, so the Generals and Wall Street are going to be very reluctant to take that last step over the brink.

Then, again, what were they saying in London, New York and Berlin in early August 1914?

2. They do seem to love creating chaos and hatred

Seems to be all they can create.

3. You say that like...

getting Dubya out of office will actually have some significant effect. Dubya has played his part. He kept the 2000 and 2004 elections close enough to steal. He stood of the smouldering wreckage of the WTC and whipped the populace into a frenzy. Removing him from office 2 years prior will make not a jot of difference.

5. Your ability to break through the clutter and distraction and get

to the heart of the matter is... depressing.

4. You Mean...They'll Get RAPTURED Out of Here?

Can I get a ticket? Need any help with the cannon?

6. That's not what they want

My feeling is that what they want is an excuse to replace our republic with another form of government. If there is a presidential election in 2008, we'll know they failed.
