I have studied history, but Iraq is not analogous to ANY situation in WWII, unless you're counting the German invasion of Poland. Which incidentally, was know as "the 1939 Defensive War" in Germany. Hmmm...A defensive war against a nation which posed no imminent, or otherwise, threat.

"At first blush..."? Al Qaeda and the Taliban reconstituted in the border regions between Afghanistan and Pakistan...US forces stretched to the point where there can be no effective response to any other crisis...war profiteers making billions off of unbid contracts...An increasing body of independently verified evidence that the Bush administration lied the nation into a war of aggression.

You'd be surprised. But more to the point, why isn't Red responding to this, or is he simply incapable of doing so, leaving his fellow travelers to take up the slack.

Indeed, it was foolish of me to belabor the obvious in stating that Red is an idiot. Oh darn it! There I go again.
