re: written a year ago
TB — (archived)

With the possible exception of Pelosi and a few others, the Democratic Party has decided that Iraq isn't any fun for them any more. The surge issue thoroughly beclowned them, and they really don't want people thinking about things like that in an election year. So, how's that recession coming?

At some point, even you are going to have to admit that howling about how we shouldn't have started the war in 2003 is not all that useful at this point, but your brains seem to be jammed on that, and if Iraq continues to improve, it's going to start looking a bit weird.

Even Obama is just playing to the rubes on this subject. You really think he's going to bail out under the current circumstances? Any more than he is on NAFTA?

It looked things were going to hell in Iraq last year, and I didn't like it at all. In the past months things have improved a great deal, and I'm glad they are. On the other hand, the same improvement seems to be making a lot of other people sick. That says something, but I don't know what.
