…at the bargain basement price of over $200 Billion and almost 2,000 American lives. The most recent excuse for the war – spreading Democracy – is now being abandoned by Bush and Co. in favor of a theocratic style government. Surely they intend to label any agreement a “Constitution” and therefore it’ll smell of Democracy to their base. Look for the “Constitution” word count in the next Condi speech and Presidential address to equal or exceed “hard work”. They’ll paint Iran Jr. as friendly Saudi style rule and declare victory for the third time (mission accomplished, elections). The imposed deadline (or shall we say job approval poll booster), for this “agreement” will coincide nicely with the dragging out of Sadam in a blonde wig for an Aruba style trial for the pleasure of the MSM. How ironic it will be that the one thing they’ve been after since the beginning – control of Middle Eastern oil – will be the one thing that will finally wake up the nation in the form of a $3 gallon of gas.
