I mostly agree with you... But Iraq is a purely artificial construct. Partition into 3 states is the answer... If Bush still had his balls... Because America would have a staunch ally in Kurdistan. Also... The Bush Administration would love to get rid of Rumsfeld... But they know that the Dems would turn the Senate confirmation hearing... Of ANY new candidate into a Show Trial for TV. So the Dems are keeping Rumsfeld in place. They still haven't been able to get Bolton confirmed as UN Ambassador... He's there only by temporary Executive Order... Probably the best man for the job since Jean Kirkpatrick.
Or something in a sense of attributing God-like powers to Bush to conspire against everybody, "right wing conspiracy" etc.

_______________________________________________ Leading in what, declining circulation? You list 4 as if they are different and the number is convincing. What part of all the same paper populated by nearly all the same editors from Gannett don't you understand. The were all purchased in 1997 by Gannett. They are not military sponsored papers period. NOW DISPROVE THE FACTS OR SHUT UP.
______________________________________________ Don't have a link but the numbers were from the PEW poll released this afternoon showing the Generic ballot latest numbers
Anyway, no more Mr. Rumsfeld, then market rallies, makes some sense, get him out of the way and over with. Focus on "good stuff" for a while. c
