It's almost like nothing matters at this point, but this documentary looks pretty powerful: Iraq For Sale.
For instance, check out this clip about the Halliburton run water purification plants.
I've taken to reading the NY Post during my Cup and Saucer breakfast routine. I love the op-ed page. It's filled with incredibly improbable ideas that make, say, Tom Friedman look sane. Take this beautiful one from today by Arthur Herman: How to fight Iran. LOL.
It's so simple - why didn't I think of that? Just take out all the missile launchers on the entire Iranian Persian Gulf coast. Genius. (No doubt his plan for how to actually do this was edited out for space reasons.) Then seize the entire Iranian oil sector (yes, with Marines securing the oil platforms, refineries, etc...) and then just continue to sell the oil on the world market (presumably pocketing the money so the entire operation just pays for itself!) Once we do this (along with knocking out electricity and telecommunications in the entire country) the Iranian population will - wait for it! - look to us as liberators and turn against the Mullahs. And even better, Iranian terrorist proxies in Lebanon and Palestine (who never liked Iran anyway) will see this as a cue, not to launch all out war on Israel, but to "head for the nearest exit."
I used to like to complain about the Times, but it turns out that was just because I sometimes read it. But they got nothin' on the NYP. "Real men go to Tehran." Indeed. I'm back to thinking we're doomed.
this war is older than she is.

probably not the worst thing for his outsized ego but its sad to see dan rather "reduced" to a grade b sunday morning shoutfest. what a nightmare trying to get a word in edgewise between chris matthews, andrea mitchell and andrew sullivan.
Is John Burns ever going to cut his hair? He must be one powerful SOB to get on TV looking like that.
100000 fans waiting for you to crash = 1 million iraqis trying to blow up your hummer
and then there was chris.
olbermann is brutally brilliant in this impassioned screed. note to neutered democrat lapdogs: this is what having balls looks like.
