The Nookular disintegration of the Bush regime is reaching critical mass.
Consider the following:

1.His entire Social Security "initiative" was dead on arrival.No matter how many times he flogs that dead horse it is not showing any signs of life.

2. His situation on the ground in Iraq is getting more and more precarious with few people available to fight.If a Tet like offensive gets launched, he will be a goner no matter how many sycophants dress him up in Winston Churchill's clothes.

3. He is running out of options dredging up money for his war.

4. The DSM with John Conyers and Cindy Sheehan has given our side two genuine heroes who command respect and admiration universally.The very simple act of walking with their petitions to the WH gate, unaccompanied by bodyguards or firepower is something Bush wishes he could do but never will be able to.

He is done. May be exile in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iraq or Pakistan will suit him. I have heard Afghanistan now grows Opium and Cocaine in record amounts.That may well attract him.

1. He is staring down the barrel of a draft.
They know that once they throw that switch, all is lost.

It's coming. Kids will be ripped away from their families, put through 6 weeks of brutal training for which they are completely unprepaired and sent to die in some sand dune.

And then, the lid comes off this sucker.

2. Maybe we can end "terrorism"...
by turning him and his henchpeople over to the people they have harmed with their corrupt foreign policies.

3. Afghanistan? Cocaine? Really?
Opium, sure, but cocaine?

As Johnny Carson would have said,

I did not know that.

4. I understand that many warlords import cocaine for transshipment to other
locations in the Middle east and Europe.

By Rupert Cornwell

Friday 17 June 2005
