World Cup edition. I'll be catching matches when I can, because there's nothing wrong with a good game of soccer. Clocks in shorter than American rules, too, since they don't lard down game time with constant commercial breaks.
While I probably exaggerate a bit -- I doubt we'll be seeing helicopters on Green Zone roofs -- the chaos isn't terribly surprising (audio and video at the link). The problem goes back to the wingnut fantasies that are now coming home to roost. And it's going to cost all of us. Damn.
Our six trillion dollar mission in Iraq is going about as well as you might expect, given its wingnut origins and, for lack of a better term, inspiration...and all the air strikes in the world won't stave off the inevitable.
But yeah, old Dick was a real piece of work...and consider this, among countless other incidents, whenever wingnuts profess any alleged concern for American lives...or any other lives besides their own.
