This just in: The Bush Administration continued to plan a major air attack on Iran; a highly placed government consultant said that President George W. Bush believes that "saving Iran is going to be his legacy."
Wha?!? Shock and Awe II? Are they nuts? Has Bush been talking to God again?
Isn’t anyone keeping score after the inaugural Shock and Awe? How much is it currently costing America in terms of lives and $$$ to occupy a Middle Eastern country that, when attacked, had no military and an infrastructure crippled by sanctions and corruption? Now they want to take on another Middle Eastern country, yet this one actually has military might and reasonable infrastructure? And, lest we forget, all the while they’ll continue to occupy Iraq and Afghanistan?
Can any good come of this?
I can see what the legacy is, and I'm afraid - very afraid. I thought Presidents just wanted to leave behind libraries. Mind you, I suppose that requires that the President has actually read a book.
I’ll leave you with the words of a friend of mine who has just returned from a six week “tour of duty” in some of the world’s smelliest armpits. “Can you believe this stupidity? It is fucking unbelievable. Bombing another country... Man this world is fucked up. I am going back to Mongolia.”
Amen, brother. Amen
