1. So do I.
But with the egos, and stupidity of Bush and Cheney, I won't be holding my breath.

The only thing we can hope for is for congress to do something. I don't know what, but somebody in congress should know what they can do to prevent this now the Scott's book has come out and proved just how much were were lied to to get into the war in Iraq. Maybe the idea of Bush going in to Iran and starting another war helped Scott decided to put this book out now, and not wait till it was to late to stop their plans!

legacy as he leaves office. He didn't do it on purpose and did protect us is the message. His excuse for Katrina was the same as Iraq. I took the blame was his excuse. If he takes the blame for the failure of Iraq and Katrina...911, he should be in jail for treason.

Guess he was feeling that cold cell at the Hague lately.

Just another distraction from the crap which is going on and on in DC.

8. I think that it is basically Soros money
paying for the publishing, and if that is the case, I agree, this is a monkey wrench. The other thing I think is interesting is the way they trashed the Air Force recently. If they attack Iraq, they either have to make this an air war or they have no hope whatsoever. If they try to rely solely on Navy air power, I don't think they can make it work. We simply can't let him have another war.

9. He said on Countdown that he would be wary of the Admin trying to
justify invading Iran. He said he didn't know of any details of Iran's situation that would prompt an invasion, but he would ask more questions about it. (Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, we won't get fooled again.)
