Coming Apart at the Seams

Sometimes, there is little satisfaction in saying "I told you so". It would be nice to have the time to be smug and lord the failures of the current administration over them, but this isn't a high school science fair or a pregnancy test taken by someone you hate. This is our future and it's not looking that bright.
I've written before about the frightening tendency of the people in power to keep mouthing lies over an over like a mantra, in the hopes that someday, it would be true. Didn't you know, if you say something enough, it becomes real.
"Mission Accomplished?" - Bite my shiny metal ass.
We've now had over two-thousand American death's in Iraq now and ten times than many Iraqi's. All so that we could punish the people who had nothing to do with 911. The Weapons of Mass Destruction that were our justification for starting this unjust war have never been found. We are stuck prosecuting Saddam for atrocities that we funded during a time when he was our Ally. Peachy.
At least it looks like Karl Rove and Scooter Libby may take a hit for getting caught outing a CIA operative, but who will take the hit for the war that never should have been fought? The Vice President is probably more responsible than anyone, but not a word has been spoken about that. What's frightening is that the Puppet Masters have been reigned in a little, but the puppet is now running around without his strings. If we learned anything from Pinocchio, its that letting puppets make their own decisions is generally a bad thing.
This wouldn't frighten me so much, but this particular puppet thinks he's the Messiah and that his decisions are mandated by god.
I tend to not voice my personal political opinions here, I believe that diversity of thought is important, but I think that's why the Nascar Dad's even had a chance to steer the future of the country. Well, look where it got us.
We have a lot of work to do, and there are many enormous messes to clean up. I'd like to be smug about being right, but for now, I'll just let Tom DeLay be smug. Hopefully, he'll smug himself right through his three to five.
