Deployment from Iraq

Why praise the Iraq Report, even discuss it ?
Hamilton, Baker and Gates are the architects of saving Regan from Iran-Contra scandal and possible impeachment. Baker goes further to help Bush win presidency through supreme court, against the wish of the people. When families sue the government of Saudi Arabia, whose members were killed in 9/11 attack by Saudi nationals, Baker is the attorney for the Saudis against the people of USA. Baker helped senior Bush attack Iraq
and help sell more weapons of mass destruction in the middle east. His numerous diplomatic trips to the region, in those days, might be to collect funds and line up clients for the stock markets and hedge funds, who knows. It is thus daddy’s friend now called to help the son. Hamilton did not find any fault with Bush administration in his 9/11 report, hence has been chosen again to prepare the Iraq report, which should be as worthless as the former. The Iraq report is as bipartisan as the Iraq war itself, supported by funds and mandates from democrats. After winning election, Sherrod Brown speaks like George Bush. In opposition he voted against the war, in power he wants the troops
to stay there for 18 months, while Bush wants for 24 months. Hence the natural bipartisan decision should be for 21 months, half way between 24 and 18. Harry Reid will even provide more funding and further troops, quite against the mandate the people gave democrats in November. Brown does not want to rock the boat, but enjoy the fruits of
his newly gained power.
Bush sounds more honest and upright, compared to democrats, in whatever he plans to do, hence is so successful over his opponents, though his plans may be disastrous for the country and the world. Colin Powell spoke the biggest lie at United nations showing the aerial photographs of trucks transporting mobile biological labs, is known since its inception, and now argues the opposite point of view, in the hope of getting traction on his political ambitions beyond 2008. His national tour to sell his book, in the disguise of
presidential candidacy is also well known. His political skills are far short of his ambitions, it seems. The great enthusiasm of white journalists, talk show hosts, and the people who have no say at politics, for Barack Obama, and the caution and disbelief of black and minority journalists and people, who have even lesser control on the political process, indicates that Obama may end up as Martin Luther King, Jesse Jackson or Harold Ford, at the best. With a middle name, Hussain, born of African father, in American Indian state of Hawaii, close to Japan and Asia, far away from the West, and raised in Islamic Indonesia, indicates that he should hide in senate and elsewhere for years to come. Being proved incorrect would be a pleasure, on this point.
Well, the spectacle is like the US tennis open finals between Jimmy Connors and John McEnroe where both will perform a brilliant game and entertain us. One of them will win, the loser will congratulate the winner and collect the second prize money with glee.
Both will leave happy without thinking about the spectators who provided all the funds
for the show. Let us enjoy the game of democracy, pay for it, and keep quiet since noise
will distract the players and lower their performance, eventually lesser fun for us.
