I know Larry. We have always been in agreement on the reasons for the Iraq war, just not what to do about it now.

The "wars" are invasions, not solutions to a hokey terrorism plot, WMD "threats" or religious zealotry. The United States is now the controlling factor in the global heroin trade.
"By design, Iraq was the central front in the war on terrorism."
Only because we were there. Not so 24 hours before we got there.
The funny thing is that this will be used by Republicans to justify all kinds of criticism of Obama's handling of the war.
He deserves criticism to be sure, but they are the last people who should have any right to open their mouths about the subject.

Republicans lack critical analysis because they are desperate to remain "guiltless" among their own kind. Like religious fundamentalists, they couldn't give a tinkers damned what is really going on, just so long as they are not named in relation to their own misdeeds.
Teabaggers and birthers are morons to the rest of us, and they absolutely know it, thus nothing has been produced by them other than less news about the real world issues. They are "useful idiots".
