Will they cool actions in Iraq to avoid 1000 dead when W goes on?
Yes it would have to be an especially bad week for us to hit that point this week....a point possibly unimaginable just a year ago....and so far beyond the horror of what we thought was imaginable in the first place....

Just think of these bastards collaborating on the Iraq plan and saying....hmmm....looks doable....hmmm....looks like losses will be acceptable....

Considering the maniacal string pulling that goes on....you have to believe that someone in Bushworld would do anything to avoid such an icon which could wake up that many more people to the insanity or anything whatsoever that might feed into an antiwar sentiment....especially with a 1/2 million people in the wings protesting.

The only thing I wonder after Swiftboat is what the freek is next on the list. Do you think there's ever a point at which they might say....oh F it and simply go back to their plush surroundings and stop screwing with the rest of the world?

McLaughlin this past Sunday made an amazing prediction. John has been very outspoken against the war lately and very supportive of Kerry in almost every regard...including economic factors. You don't have to read between the lines to here John saying he hopes to God that W gets canned. But what he predicted disturbed me. He said he expects Rumsfeld to turn up missing over the next month as part of a trip to Iraq to check on the rebuilding operation....followed by.....the wonderful discover of WMD in Iraq. Disturbing to me because he prides himself on these predictions.

I have to believe that they have a number of contingency plans. Now we see the convention is probably going to be a flop....so get ready for what could be a level of BS like we've never seen before.

1. They have been doing this for months now
The US military avoids any interaction with the public, except where it is absolutely unavoidable. They use surrogate truck drivers, Iraqi police etc. instead. Their purpose seems to be to be available in case of mass civil disorder such as in Najaf. They are basically ineffective and worthless, they should be brought home.

2. That would be awful fishy if that happened.
I'll keep my eyes open...thanks for the heads up!
