Ho-hum (sorry Al and Jesse), don't all the Bush-bashing , America-haters even realize all the blame-placing and sarcasm will wear thin eventually. Must be a great way to make a living. Easier to point fingers and parrot the phrase "Bush done it" than actually doing anything about whatever "it" is.
You are wrong Jdeacon. Being a neo-con in military clothing like you are is a great job. The neo-cons are betraying the USA and its fighting men and women every day.
Why is it, no one mentions that the whole mess in the middle east is the result of the British Empire. That we have been picking up the pieces of their failed empire for forty years. Britain should not be our allies in this, they should be leading. At least say "thank you America for taking care or our business."

If we go back to the British Empire we might as well keep going back to Cain and Abel. Given the lessons of Pax Britannica we had no business pursuing Pax Americana but we did. Given our election choices in 2000 and 2004, we own this mess. Sort of like when the toilet overflows.... swear all you want but you still have to get a mop. Bombing the toilet is not a solution.
you seem to ignor the fact, that 'our enemy' the terrorist, have been forced to relocate to pakistan? We...should imediatly have crossed the border.....and removed them..relocated to 'paradise? Since when..does the war stop..at a border?Soon.....pakistan will have no option...but request Americam forces to 'help' clear the territory's...

Excellent point. Nations are not the same as countries. As the British Empire disintegrated, artificial countries were created, with ethnic nations split or combined. I mean, Iraq...Kurd, Shiite, Sunni, all living together in harmony? Right. Only the iron fist of Saddam kept things together. Kashmir? That's what led India and Pakistan to go nuclear, and it's only a matter of time before a Paki nuke is acquired by al-Qaeda.
"That is the essence of the neo-con, Trotskyite vision of the world revolution, which the Bush administration has made its own."
How true. The United States has become the world's neo-Bolsheviks, with the same aliens who ran the show from Moscow now running the show from Washington. America is dead, irretrievably dead!
