Why right-wingers so bitter? When even reasonable republicans attack the president for his incompetent administration of the war you know something is not right in Foggy Bottom. Chuck Hagel, Norm Coleman and even Richard Lugar are only three of the many republicans who are livid with the prospect of continuing our failed myopic misery in Mesopotamia under “w’s” leadership. What is it about right-wing neo-cons and their fundamentalist sycophants, (Mitch McConnell, Lieberman and McCain) that make them ignore reality? The public is so far ahead of the administration on this war. Bush is in a corner of his own making and he is a very dangerous man in this position. He won’t even listen to his own father. Look for him to strike Iran and Syria rather than admit his failure in Iraq. Republicans know the reason they are out of power is because of his intransigence and end-times ideology. Dry drunks are scary animals. Messianic demagogues can not accept any views other than their own delusional dreams. Continued casualties and extended tours of duty for already exhausted and depleted national guard troops is zapping the last bit of patriotism out of the public. Why not just admit we want the oil and retreat back to bordering countries. “w” will not risk leaving before his term in office is over. He will let the next administration do that so they can take the blame for the failure in Iraq. This is the tactic of an arrogant megalomaniac. History will not be kind.
