This would sure clear the way for the impeachment of Bush, with no worries of DickHead lurking off-stage. Think we could get MoveOn to divert some of their campaign war chest to bribe the CIA to take on the covert assignment of assisting Ahmadinejad in this effort?
By John Lowell, May 13, 2007 at 7:19 pm # When the Iraq Study Group recommended conversations with Iran about the security of Iraq, the Regime simply couldn’t find enough merit in it to consider it seriously. There would be no conversations of any kind with Iran as long as they were attempting to enrich uranium. Our answer to the security of Iraq was the “surge”. But with the obvious disintegration of the situation in Iraq into an unmanagable chaos, and with Bush flopping about like a beached whale, for a second time in 30 days conversations with an “evil” Middle Eastern adversary must be arranged. One wonders if any of the principal figures in Washington have thought about the possiblility of a Syria or an Iran unwilling to talk unless the United States were first to withdraw its military forces to Kuwait. And who would fail to see the justice in such a precondition? John Lowell Add Your Comment |
