Connie,

It's going to happen sooner or later, right?

The hardest part is to realize that there is not a chance
of a snowball in hell that Iraq will ever have an elected
president acceptable to American sensibility.

To invade Iraq was a no-win act of pure craziness flying
in the face of everything any educated person knows or should
know about contemporary world history.

SH and his Sunnis are going to outlast the occupation.

If I were the prez, I would start by begging the pardon
of the Iraqis for my country having invaded theirs. I
assume Pres. Dean will do this first thing after the
inauguration Jan 2005. Having cleared the air he will
disengage.

Mike
