Just heard Hersh on WHYY radio...scared

Like you can't get any more scared, right. Sy's points:

1) Franks is an idiot.

2) If Bush is reelected he is going to bomb Iraq into submission. Note: given the nature of guerilla warfare, this means turning the whole country into a pile of rubble. "Democratizing" the middle east is Bush's raison d'etre.

3) Anyone in the military or intelligence communities that was not behind the war was excorcised. You might know that.

4) When Abu Ghraib went down Vader called Rummy and told him there would be no resignations, that they were all going to hang togther through this.


Christ this is scary. I don't know how I could let a Bush victory stand. Chain of Command sounds like it might be worth it.

The Marines refused to do Franks' bidding at Tora Bora because they knew it was a deathtrap.

He can still bomb the hell out of Iraq the day after the election.
