[extropy-chat] 'a process of non-thinking called faith' 2 (2)

[Al Brooks]

But the situation isn't comparable to the discrete
situation in Southeast Asia where they could cut their
losses and withdraw most of the forces. The enemy in
the Mideast doesn't have a post office box.
So say next year Iraq is in such chaos the allies are
forced to withdraw, what then? Where do we take it
from there? Just say enough dirt is dug up on the Bush
administration that both Bush & Cheney are compelled
to resign. What then? Who would be Chief Executive?
Say po' fessors and think tanks get millions in grant
money to figure out what to do in the region, what
advice can they offer? It's not rocket science-- but
what is it?
You hear and read so much recrimination directed
against the administration yet what now? And all these
guys who hear 'Hail to the Chief' in their heads, like
McCain, and by golly you vote for me in '08 and we'll
send Defense to the 20 yard line and then do an end
run. Shucks you vote for little ol' me and I'll clean
up this mess in I-rack, yessiree. Plus retired
military guys writing books titled "What I Would Have
done In Iraq Had You Been Farsighted Enough to Entrust
Me With The High Command-- But Now It Is Too Late
Unless You Buy My Book".
