Snakebit and his minions take note. You were wrong then, so why should anyone listen to you now regarding Iraq? You guys don't have a clue as to how the world works - if you did, you wouldn't have been throwing your chips into the pot as you did back before your fearsome puppet of a president led you, and ME, into the quagmire that is called Iraq. You supporters of this fiasco ought to be stripped of your citizenship and put on a one way flight to Sudan.

You didn't listen to me back then. If only you would have......

........Iraq has never had a democratic government; it has always been controlled by brutal despots who have been replaced in coups by other brutal despots. It is sheer fantasy to believe a western, Christian nation can march in and create a democratic government that will work in Iraq. Iraq's populace is split into several factions whose interests are not in congruence; attempting to get a handle on the situation will prove to be a monumental task that will take more time than the American people will have patience for, and cost more money than we'll have bargained for.

Bush has not done well at consensus building which worries me. Maybe he thinks he doesn't need to; after all, didn't he become President without a majority of the popular vote?.........

Yo, I must correct what I said - should not have been 'Snake and his minions', but rather 'Snake and the other minions here'. Minions with bunions in their heads when it comes to our ME involvement.

Would you rather have minions, or people of your ilk? You can't have both.

If you insist on catagorizing me, I think you might take care not to offend those you are grouping me with. I have been ilked before, minions is new and implies an elevated status. I'm surprised! (I think I like ilk better, less responsibility) :)
