Riverbend's New Posts

I'd been missing Riverbend's posts for the last few weeks, figuring that she'd merely been busy with stuff--and she certainly has been busy. Check out the last two posts, at the main link above, and here.

Iraq is a sick joke these days. Is there ANY doubt that there will be civil war once the American troops pull out, and chaos until they do? And the idea that we're somehow safer these days...well, let's just say that must be some powerful Kool-Aid they're distributing. That, or the faith-based nature of the Bush Administration really has moved into the realm of foreign policy.

All that remains for Bush to say at this point regarding Iraq is, "Who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?" Same with Afghanistan. Ever wonder what it's like to spend $150 billion dollars on nothing? Riverbend's posts only serve to remind us that belief in our own propaganda is no way to establish a foreign policy.
